Imagined Empires investigates the interest early American culture, and especially literature, took in South American civilisations. By exploring the works of Philip Freneau, Joel Barlow, William Prescott, Herman Melville and Walt Whitman, this 1999 book sheds light on national sovereignty, identity, and the development of an American history narrative.
