Description: Adopting America: Childhood, Kinship, and National Identity in Literature 1st Edition by Carol J. Singley. Pre-owned good condition. American literature abounds with orphans who experience adoption or placements that resemble adoption. These narratives do more than describe adventures of children living away from home. They tell an American story of family and national identity. In literature from the seventeenth to the early twentieth century, adoption functions as narrative event and trope to recount the American migratory experience, the impact of Calvinist faith, and the growth of democratic individualism.
