Many early American works grapple with the complex question of what it means to be American. Choose one of the following nonfiction texts: J. Hector St. John de Crevecoeur’s Letters from an American Farmer (beginning NA 289), Frederick Douglass’ “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” (beginning NA 1040), or Henry David Thoreau’s Walden, or Life in the Woods (beginning NA 899). In your response, analyze how the author defines, challenges, or complicates American identity. Be sure to consider the specifics of how the author approaches concepts associated with American identity (such as freedom, individualism, and social responsibility). Support your analysis with specific examples from the text.
