Irving's use of pseudonyms and fictional narrators adds an interesting layer to the text, inviting readers to question the boundaries between reality and fiction. Washington Irving, inspired by his travels in Europe and his love for folklore and mythology, created 'The Sketch Book' as a way to explore his own cultural identity and reflect on the changing landscape of America during his time. His unique blend of American and European literary influences sets him apart as a pioneering figure in the development of American literature.
