Benjamin Tompson Colonial Bard written by Benjamin Tompson and has been published by Penn State University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1980 with History categories.
The first complete and reliable edition of a poet ranked among the best in 17th-century New England, this book presents Benjamin Tompson (1642-1714) as a proud, sensitive, and humorous writer who applauded leadership and heroism while admonishing the foolish, the worldly, and the dissident. A Harvard graduate and schoolmaster (Cotton Mather was his pupil) Benjamin Tompson celebrate the "New Canaan" in occasional, elegiac, and satirical poems which represent, to one critic, a transition between "colonial baroque and colonial neoclassic art." New-Englands Crisis, describing the 1675-76 war against the Algonquins (in which the poet did first-aid duty), is a unique combination of classical epic and almost journalistic realism. It is also a witty satire, deflating the pretensions of the new generation of Puritan and Indian leaders. "The Grammarians Funeral," though packed with puns and word games, does not deprecate linguistic precision. In general, this colonial bard looked backward to lost traditions and forward to unrealized potentials. Approved by the Center for Scholarly Editions, Professor White's edition presents thirty poems, three letters, and a Latin oration, all annotated with historical and literary information.

The Oxford Handbook of Early American Literature is a major new reference work that provides the best single-volume source of original scholarship on early American literature. Comprised of twenty-seven chapters written by experts in their fields, this work presents an authoritative, in-depth, and up-to-date assessment of a crucial area within literary studies. Organized primarily in terms of genre, the chapters include original research on key concepts, as well as analysis of interesting texts from throughout colonial America. Separate chapters are devoted to literary genres of great importance at the time of their composition that have been neglected in recent decades, such as histories, promotion literature, and scientific writing. New interpretations are offered on the works of Benjamin Franklin, Jonathan Edwards and Dr. Alexander Hamilton while lesser known figures are also brought to light. Newly vital areas like print culture and natural history are given full treatment. As with other Oxford Handbooks, the contributors cover the field in a comprehensive yet accessible way that is suitable for those wishing to gain a good working knowledge of an area of study and where it's headed.

This innovative look at previously neglected poetry in British America represents a major contribution to our understanding of early American culture. Spanning the period from the Glorious Revolution (1690) to the end of King George's War (1750), this study critically reconstitutes the literature of empire in the thirteen colonies, Canada, and the West Indies by investigating over 300 texts in mixed print and manuscript sources, including poems in pamphlets and newspapers. British America's poetry of empire was dominated by three issues: mercantilism's promise that civilization and wealth would be transmitted from London to the provinces; the debate over the extent of metropolitan prerogatives in law and commerce when they obtruded upon provincial rights and interests; and the argument that Britain's imperium pelagi was an ethical empire, because it depended upon the morality of trade, while the empires of Spain and France were immoral empires because they were grounded upon conquest. In discussing these issues, Shields provides a virtual anthology of poems long lost to students of American literature.
