By 1877, 100 years after declaring our independence, we had accumulated an impressive national library of poetry and prose, but Americans of an intellectual bent had little confidence in their own culture and measured themselves by European standards, usually disparagingly.
What one must first understand about American literature is that it is un-American--not as the term was used in the Red-baiting days of the 1950s, but because literature is something with which we as a nation are inherently uneasy.

Catenae quote passages from the commentary of Hippolytus on Susanna, but the early lists do not mention this as a separate treatise, and Bardenhewer is probably right in thinking that it was the commencement of the commentary on Daniel, to which book that of Susanna was then commonly prefixed.

Before coming to GW, I earned a degree in English and a certification in Secondary Education from Connecticut College and taught American Literature and creative writing in Ledyard, Connecticut.
