This book culls important insights into American culture from the works of Phillis Wheatley, Edgar Allan Poe, Henry David Thoreau, William Wells Brown, and Walt Whitman. López contends that many of the tensions that emerged prior to the Civil War remain unresolved; thus, the nineteenth century never ended and Americans still live in the literary framework of the 1800s.

Autorenporträt
R. O. P. López received a political science BA, classics MA, and English PhD. This monograph is the culmination of ten years of scholarship in American literature, classics, and political science. López also received training in the United States Army Infantry School in such military areas as intelligence, logistics, rules of engagement, sexual assault prevention, and operations. He teaches American literature in Los Angeles and founded the Wild West Coconut Press (http://www.wildwestcoconutshow.com) as well as the Coalition for Analysis of Defense Intelligence and National Security, which bridges scholarship in philosophy, English, political science, urban studies, film, and geography. His next scholarly monograph will be Gilded Lilies, a study of nineteenth-century iconography in the Hollywood musicals of the 1950s.
