| Abstract | Drawing on the literary heritage of New England, this collection of articles highlights the works of six different authors spanning the early English settlements to the post-Civil War period. Originally presented at six seminars for teachers and designed to feature humanities in Connecticut schools, the articles and their authors are as follows: (1) "William Bradford's 'Plymouth Plantation': Puritans, Indians and the Wilderness" (Lawrence J. Kazura); (2) "'Walden' and Civil Disobedience" (David Curtis); (3) "Ishmael, Ahab, and the White Whale" from Herman Melville's "Moby Dick" (Leonard Engel); (4) "Harriet Beecher Stowe: 'Uncle Tom's Cabin': A Reconsideration for Our Time" (Jordon Pecile); (5) "Privileged and Imperiled Youth: Huck Finn and Mark Twain Resist Adulthood" (Thomas Grant); and (6) "Emily Dickinson: Implications of Time and Place" (Judith Davis Miller). (Most of the articles include bibliographies. A list of related classroom activities and a resource inventory are appended.) (NKA) |
