American Mind and American Idealism (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)
In The American Mind (1912), the author defines and interprets American literature as it reflects the nation’s character—including its people’s confidence, recklessness, and oratory as well as their belief in institutions. American Idealism (1913) examines how the nation’s ideals are reflected in its literature. This double volume of pioneering criticism is full of humor, insight, and examples.
