Literature of the United States - Literature of the United States This article is part of the Culture of the United States series. Cinema Folklore Music Dance Literature Cuisine Poetry Architecture Visual arts The literature of the United States may be considered as belonging to English literature or as a distinct body of literature. Much early American literature is derivative: European forms and styles transferred to new locales. For example, Wieland and other novels by Charles Brockden Brown (1771-1810) are energetic imitations of the Gothic novels then being written in England. Even the well-wrought tales of Washington Irving (1783-1859), notably Rip Van Winkle and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, seem comfortably European despite their New World settings. Perhaps the first American writer to produce boldly new fiction and poetry was Edgar Allan.
