Not only a source of imagery, allusion, rhythm and style, the Bible is central to how poetry has both shaped and been shaped by American civic, political, and social history, including issues of ethnicity, race and gender. Through poetry core issues of the Bible in American culture emerge in a new light. What defines America as a nation? What are its historical, political and religious meanings and direction? Vitally, how is it that the Bible is at once a shared common text, binding community, and yet was throughout American culture also contested, disputed, and politicized as a weapon of war? This study begins with the Puritans, and goes on to examine poetry of the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, as well as claims and counterclaims in abolition, slavery, and women’s rights. In doing so it treats both popular and major writers, including Edward Taylor,Frances Harper, Emerson, Whitman, Dickinson, Moore and Gwendoln Brooks, concluding with Amanda Gorman. | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | American Poetry; Bible; Identity; Community; Conflict; War; Civil War; Abolition; Slavery; Women’s Rights; Emi | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-40106-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-40108-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-40106-0Series ISSN 2634-6052 Series E-ISSN 2634-6060 | issn_series | 2634-6052 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
