Descriere completă

This volume provides an analysis of the development of colonial North American thought and culture from 1680 to the eve of the American Revolution. Not an anachronistic search for the origins of later American cultural forms, it situates the subject firmly within a transatlantic context. The author emphasizes the extent to which improving communications and expanding connections helped to incorporate colonial settlers into a larger British world by providing them access and inviting them to become contributors to a burgeoning public culture of print, consisting of newspapers, magazines, books and letters. Whereas during the first seven decades of the 17th century, the colonies were isolated outposts of English culture, from the late 17th century, the author contends, they increasingly became like Scotland and Protestant Ireland - intellectual and cultural provinces of an expanding British Empire.
