THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA PRESS
As questions of citizenship generate new
debates for this generation of Americans,
Brook Thomas argues for revitalizing
the role of literature in civic education.
Thomas defines civic myths as compelling
stories about national origin, member-
ship, and values that are generated by
conflicts within the concept of citizenship
itself. Selected works of literature, he
claims, work on these myths by challeng-
ing their terms at the same time that they
work with them by relying on the power
of narrative to produce compelling new
stories.
Citric Myths consists of four case studies:
www.uncpress.unc.edu
Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter
and “the good citizen”; Edward Everett
Hale’s “The Man without a Country”
and “the patriotic citizen”; Mark Twain’s
Aduentures of Huckleberry Finn and “the
independent citizen”; and Maxine Hong
Kingston’s China Men and “the immigrant
citizen.” Thomas also provides analysis of
the civic mythology surrounding Abraham
Lincoln and the case of Ex parte Milligan.
Engaging current debates about civil
society, civil liberties, civil rights, and
immigration, Thomas draws on the com-
plexities of law and literature to probe the
complexities of U.S. citizenship.
