/lit/, my MA program is offering a course on Early American Literature this Spring. Can anyone think of a reason why I should take it?

Pic related, but boring as shit

if you're not interested in it and it's not required for your major, don't take it

What years? Some of the Puritan stuff and the encounters with Native Americans is good. Nothing outstanding until the middle of the 19th century though.

>early American

American lit was garbage until the Anti-transcendentalists

I'm taking a course just like that right now. Yeah, it's not the most thrilling stuff in the world, but I think it's definitely worth your time. Give's a lot of background on this country's lit that you wouldn't otherwise learn
