Amer. Lit. with Historical Tie-ins

[Julie Burwinkel- Librarian <BURWINKEL_J@HCCA.OHIO.GOV>]

    Dear Group--One of my English teachers is interested in books, plays,
    or poems in American literature that were written in response to some
    aspect of American History.  For example, The Crucible  by Arthur
    Miller was written as a protest to McCarthyism.  Another
    example(although it is not Amer. Lit.) would be Animal Farm in response
    to the Russian Revolution and Communism. If you have any ideas about
    this, please respond to me privately at Burwinkel_J@Hcca.ohio.gov TIA
