| Abstract | Discusses the imagined dialogue between Charles Sealsfield and an American guest, written by Louis Gaylord Clark in imitation of Thomas Carlyle's Sartor Resartus. While Clark certainly never met Sealsfield, he uses the German author as a foil to speak to his own aesthetic concerns and his vision of a national culture, particularly in light of the issues facing America in the "crisis year" of 1844. |
