Accounts ot the rise of American literature often start in the 1850s with a duster of great American novels”—Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter; Melville s Moby-Dick, and Stowe s Uncle Tom s Cabin. But these great works did not spring fully formed from the heads of their creators. All three relied on conventions of short fiction built up during the “culture of beginnings,” the three decades following the War of 1812 when public figures called for a patriotic national literature. Decentering the novel as the favored form of early nine teenth-century literature, Lydia Fash repositions the sketch and the tale at the center of accounts of American literary history, revealing how cultural forces shaped short fiction that was subsequently mined for these celebrated midcentury novels, as well as for the first novel published by an African American author, William Wells Brown’s Clotel. In the shorter works of writers such as Washington Irving, Catharine Sedgwick, Edgar Allan Poe, and Lydia Maria Child, among others, the aesthetic of brevity enabled the beginning idea of a story to take on outsized importance. Fash argues that these short forms, in both their narrative innovations and their racial exclusions, coached readers on how to think about the United States’ past and the nature of narrative time itself. Com bining history, print history, and literary criticism, this book offers a new account of the birth of a self-consciouslv national literarv tradition.
