Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book gives a speech delivered at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1841 to graduating alumni. The author reflects on the state of education in the young United States, noting that the country has achieved much in a short time but has not yet produced much literature or art. The author discusses the causes for this, including the youth of the country, the fact that it is still largely agricultural, and the influence of England. The author argues that in spite of these challenges, it is important for the United States to develop its own unique voice in the arts and letters. The book concludes with a call for the graduates to play a leading role in this endeavor.
