Reviewed by Jobie Turner (Air University) Published on H-War (April, 2021) Commissioned by Margaret Sankey (Air University) Printable Version: https://www.h-net.org/reviews/showpdf.php?id=55121 On July 5, 1758, Major General Abercrombie’s army of sixteen thousand British and colonial soldiers and Native American allies alighted in nine hundred craft (boats, bateaux, and canoes) at the south end of Lake George, New York.[1] The vast armada was the largest military force assembled on the continent by any European power to that date. Their destination was Fort Carillon, twenty-six miles north and a few miles over land. Fort Carillon had been held by the French since the start of the Seven Years’ War and had vexed the British for three years. Most famously, French general Louis- Joseph de Montcalm had sailed south in 1757 and besieged Fort William Henry. It was on the ruins of Fort William Henry that the British built their camp to prepare for their row up Lake George in 1758. After one overnight camp, Abercrombie’s troops disembarked and began their movement to Fort Carillon. By July 8, 1755, the British were in full rout, the French and their native allies killing and wounding more than 1,500 of the British force.

  • James Fenimore Cooper and the Idea of Environmental Conservation in the Leatherstocking Tales (1823-1841)
    Ceisy Nita Wuntu — James Fenimore Cooper and the Idea of Environmental Conservation in the Leatherstocking Tales (1823-1841) JAMES FENIMORE COOPER AND THE IDEA OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION IN THE LEATHERSTOCKING TALES (1823-1841) Ceisy Nita Wuntu IKIP Negeri Manado [email protected] Abstract The spirit to respect the rights of all living environment in literature that was found in the 1970s in William Rueckert’s works was considered as the emergence of the new criticism in literature, ecocriticism, which brought the efforts to trace the spirit in works of literature. Works arose after the 1840s written by Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Margareth Fuller, the American transcendentalists, are considered to be the first works presenting the respect for the living environment as claimed by Peter Barry. James Fenimore Cooper’s reputation in American literary history appeared because of his role in leading American literature into its identity. Among his works, The Leatherstocking Tales mostly attracted European readers’ attention when he successfully applied American issues. The major issue in the work is the spirit of the immigrants to dominate flora, fauna and human beings as was experienced by the indigenous people. Applying ecocriticism theory in doing the analysis, it has been found that Cooper’s works particularly his The Leatherstocking Tales (1823-1841) present Cooper’s great concern for the sustainable life. He shows that compassion, respect, wisdom, and justice are the essential aspects in preserving nature that meet the main concern of ecocriticism and hence the works that preceded the transcendentalists’ work places themselves as the embryo of ecocriticism in America.

While a handful of critics such as Scott Michaelsen and Christina Starobin have conducted studies devoted specifically to understanding the ways animals figure into Cooper's work, critical anthropocentricism remains the norm. This trend probably stems in part from the larger social tendency to prioritize human concerns, to spend our time and energy devoted to the study of what most overtly concerns ourselves. Nevertheless, analyzing the specific components that make up Cooper's concept of nature allows us to see the animals of his fiction as figures that can tell us much about his vision of the relationship between humans and nature and even between different cultural groups.

  • James Fenimore Coopers Indianerbild: the Last of the Mohicans Und the Pioneers
    James Fenimore Coopers Indianerbild: The Last of the Mohicans und The Pioneers von Sirinya Pakditawan Erstauflage disserta Verlag 2015 Verlag C.H. Beck im Internet: www.beck.de ISBN 978 3 95425 894 9 schnell und portofrei erhältlich bei beck-shop.de DIE FACHBUCHHANDLUNG Leseprobe Textprobe: Kapitel 2.2.2, Der Missionar Heckewelder: In basing his [Cooper’s] early Indian characters (…) upon Heckewelder, he was following, according to his belief, the most reliable authority known at that time. Im Vorwort zu den Leatherstocking Tales von 1850 offenbart Cooper seine Wertschätzung von Heckewelders Kenntnissen der Indianer. Zugleich verteidigt er dabei seine eigene idealisierte Darstellung des nordamerikanischen Ureinwohners als grundlegendes Recht des Dichters und bekennt sich somit auch dazu, Indianer fiktionalisiert zu haben: It has been objected to these books [the Leatherstocking Tales] that they give a more favourable picture of the red man than he deserves. The writer apprehends that much of this objection arises from the habits of those who have made it. One of his critics (…) objected that its ‘characters were Indians of the school of Heckewelder, rather than of the school of nature.’ These words (…) contain the substance of the true answer to the objection. Heckewelder was an ardent, benevolent missionary, bent on the good of the red man, and seeing in him one who had the soul, reason, and characteristics of a fellow-being. (…) It is the privilege of all writers of fiction (…) to present the beau-idéal of their characters to the reader. (Mohicans, Preface to the Leatherstocking Tales [1850], S. 398; Hervorhebung SP). Da Cooper von Heckewelders Zuverlässigkeit überzeugt war, gebrauchte er dessen Werk Indian Nations als Hauptquelle für seine eigene Darstellung des Indianers in den frühen Lederstrumpf- Romanen The Pioneers und The Last of the Mohicans.
