The Beginning of American Literature
American has always been a land of beginnings.【C1】______Europeans "discovered" America in the fifteenth century, the mysterious New World became for many people a genuine hope of a new life, an escape from【C2】______and persecution, a chance to start again. We can say that, as nation, America begins with that hope.When,【C3】______, does American literature begin?
American literature begins with American experiences. Long before the first colonists arrived , before Christopher Columbus, before the Northmen who" found" America about the year 1,000,【C4】______Americans lived here. Each tribe’s literature was【C5】______woven into the fabric of daily life and reflected the unmistakably American experience of lining with the land.【C6】______kind of experience, one filled with fear and excitement, found its expression in the reports that Columbus and other explorers【C7】______home in Spain, French and English. In addition, the journals of the people who lived and died in the New England wilderness tell unforgettable tales of hard and sometimes【C8】______experiences of those【C9】______years.
Experience, then, is the key to early American literature. The New World【C10】______a great variety of experiences, and these experiences【C11】______a wide variety of expressions by an even wider variety of early American writers. These writers, included John Smith,【C12】______spent only two-and- a-half years on the American continent.They included Jonathan Edwards and William Byrd, who【C13】______of themselves as British subjects, never【C14】______a revolution that would create a United States of America with a literature of its own.American Indians, explorers, Puritan ministers, frontier wives, plantation owner—they are all the【C15】______of the first American literature.
