Книга: Rachel Bailey De Luise «A Confluence of Literary Devices in Early American Literature:»

Производитель: "LAP Lambert Academic Publishing" In the aftermath of King Philip``s War in early American society, Massachusetts Puritan Mary Rowlandson recorded her experiences as an `Indian` captive. In a vivid story that recollects the details of these events, Rowlandson attempts to impart a message to her community through the use of three existing literary devices. The genre of the `captivity narrative` that evolved is a distinct literary mode developed as a confluence of these: spiritual autobiography, a documentary method meant to archive spiritual and emotional growth through a record of daily activities; the conversion narrative, which made public one``s theological assurance of God``s grace; and the jeremiad, a sermon form designed to remind Puritans of their Covenant with God. To her contemporaries, Rowlandson served as an example of God``s Providence. To later generations and specifically twenty-first century scholars, she represents the voice of a new genre of storytelling. ISBN:9783844316995 Издательство: "LAP Lambert Academic Publishing" (2011)
