| Zusammenfassung: | This volume explores some key texts in what one of the chapter authors, Jericho Williams, has called a subgenre of American literature: the literature of inequality. Much of early U.S. literature could fit into this category in a variety of ways. The settler colonies transformed themselves into a nation through rebellion against systemic tyranny, yet paid for this war through enslavement and the appropriation of American Indian land, perpetuating forms of inequality with which they were familiar. Enslavement is one example of labor exploitation, which has taken many other forms over the centuries, including indentured servitude, apprenticeships, sweatshops, prostitution, migrant or seasonal labor, and prison labor. While individuals have survived or escaped these systems, they are usually permanently marked by them and viewed thereafter as being unequal. The chapters in this volume examine works that focus on people who have been exploited, colonized, and disappeared as the result of various systems of inequality in the U.S. and elsewhere. |

This volume explores some key texts in what one of the chapter authors, Jericho Williams, has called a subgenre of American literature: the literature of inequality. Much of early U.S. literature could fit into this category in a variety of ways. The settler colonies transformed themselves into a nation through rebellion against systemic tyranny, yet paid for this war through enslavement and the appropriation of American Indian land, perpetuating forms of inequality with which they were familiar. Enslavement is one example of labor exploitation, which has taken many other forms over the centuries, including indentured servitude, apprenticeships, sweatshops, prostitution, migrant or seasonal labor, and prison labor. While individuals have survived or escaped these systems, they are usually permanently marked by them and viewed thereafter as being unequal. The chapters in this volume examine works that focus on people who have been exploited, colonized, and disappeared as the result of various systems of inequality in the U.S. and elsewhere.
