Abstract

This work argues that nativism, the hostility especially to Catholic immigrants that led to the organization of political parties like the 'Know-Nothings', affected the meaning of nineteenth-century American art in ways that have gone unrecognized.

Whether considering a writer's connection to region or the idea of place in exploring what is meant by regionalism, these essays uncover an enduring and evolving concept. Although the approaches and disciplines vary, all are framed within the fundamental
