Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In "Americans", Stuart Pratt Sherman offers a profound exploration of the cultural and intellectual foundations of the United States through a series of insightful biographical and critical essays. Written during a transformative period in American letters, the work seeks to define the essential character of the nation by examining the lives and legacies of its most influential figures, including Benjamin Franklin, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Walt Whitman.Sherman, a distinguished literary critic, moves beyond mere biography to engage with the philosophical and moral currents that have shaped the American identity. By revisiting these iconic individuals, he addresses the tension between tradition and modernity, arguing for a continuity of the American spirit that remains relevant to readers of intellectual history. The prose is both scholarly and accessible, reflecting the author's deep commitment to understanding the roots of national thought.As a significant contribution to early 20th-century literary criticism, "Americans" serves as an essential guide for anyone interested in the development of American literature and the enduring values that define the country's heritage.
