Description:The Melting Pot, The Land of The Free, The Land of Opportunity. These tropes or nicknames apparently reflect the freedom and open-armed welcome that the United States of America offer. However, the chronicles of history do not complement that image. These historical happenings have not often been brought into the focus of Modernist literary criticism, though their existence in the record is clear.This book aims to discuss these chronicles, displaying, in great detail, the underpinnings and subtle references of racism and xenophobia embedded so deep both into fictional and real personas, whether they may be characters, writers, legislators, or the common people. In the main chapters, literary works are dissected so as to underline the intolerance hidden behind words of righteousness and blind trust, as if such is the norm.Though history is taught, it is not so thoroughly examined. To our misfortune, we naively think these bigoted ideas are not a thing we could become afflicted with. They are antiques from the past - yet they possessed many hundreds of people and they surround us still. Since we've experienced very little change, it seems discipline is necessary to truly attempt to be rid of these ideas.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
