Advanced-American-Lit-Essay-quot-What-is-an-American-quot-

We began this course with a question from the Study Guide: “What is an American? How does literature create conceptions of the American experience and American identity?” This unit focused on enslaved people in America, those who came unwillingly and endured great hardships yet sought ways to educate themselves and to express themselves through writing. In a well-developed expository essay, explain how their works expand, change, or enhance the answer to the question: “What is an American?” Provide specific quotations from the texts you have read.
