| American writers have had a lot to say about Germans and Germany over the last two hundred years. Scholars, however, have largely overlooked this literature. Waldemar Zacharasiewicz's Images of Germany in American Literature seeks to make up for lost time, surveying American depictions of Germany and its citizens from the colonial period through the present. The book also explores an impressive range of American public discourse, from "high" literary texts to newspaper cartoons, personal diaries to modern films. |
