American Literature. Colonial Period

William Bradford (1590-1657), was one of the Pilgrim Fathers and was chosen governor for New Plymouth. He wrote a “History of the Plymouth Plantation”. In Book I, Chapter IX, he tells of their voyage, and how they passed the sea, and of their safe arrival at Cape Cod. In Chapter X he shows how they sought out a place of habitation and what befell them thereabout. Book II deals with the Mayflower Compact (1620) and the Compact with the Indians (1621).

Anne Bradstreet (1612-1657), a women poet born in the Old World in England. She was the daughter of the Governor of Massachusetts, and was married at sixteen to one of the Puritans who founded the Boston settlement. Her husband, a frontiersman, always lived in the wild regions of the newly conquered land. She had eight children and it was hard to take care of them and yet to find time for writing. But she found the time. Her first book of verse was called by the British editor “The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America” (1650). In her early poems she longs for her old home in England, but in her later lyrical poems she wrote about the familiar objects of her daily life. Anne Bradstreet revealed the life of the first generation of New Englanders. Her works were re-edited in America in 1932 under the title “The Works of Anne in Prose and Verse”.
