The nineteenth century was a very important period in
the history of the United States. The purpose of this
book was to examine how territorial expansion appears
in the frontier literature of the early nineteenth
century. Besides looking through the historical facts
and the cultural-historical significance of the
frontier, the literary background of the topic is
examined as well. For James Fenimore Cooper was
surely the most significant and best known novelist
of the frontier, it is analysed how he wrote about
the settling on the frontier and civilization of the
wilderness. With his well known work, the
Leatherstocking Tales, he created the myth
of the frontier in the nineteenth century American
prose fiction. As this book was written not only for
people who are interested in the myth of the
frontier, but teachers of English language as well,
in the pedagogical implications part of the book it
is examined why youngsters should read Cooper. With
sample exercises and a lesson plan it is
also examined how Cooper s novels can be used
on English lessons, for his stories are so
interesting and full of adventures that students
would surely like them in English too.
