so when i wrote the book i mentioned earlier on dickinson and higgins, so much of it is nonliterary, it really is about anti-slavery, the abolition movement, what happens to poetry, how it gets published. that is historical as well. we don't just need words as native peoples. history can be how a poem gets published. so to me, moving into this book was, this particular book, and "ecstatic nation", it was a tremendous opportunity and it made me very ecstatic, in fact. you have the opportunity to be able to do what i had been drawn to all along. which means that i didn't sideline literature, if anything, it is cultural and political history. because i think of them as the same. because that is what i mean about reading them as the newspaper. we have egypt and chase bank, those who also have a story about our critic loved emily dickinson and longfellow. so there we are. thank you.

as i mentioned in the book, and dickenson and higgins and in both of those cases i am writing about writers involving those cases, part of what always interested me is that they live in time and as i mentioned, something like that, really didn't meet lincoln, he went to manassas and was close with the man who invented the term manifest destiny call of those things. i was never that far from history or writing about history. it just was filtered through literature, literature is something that i love very much. but it exists in time. history is embodied with literature in that way. when i wrote the book on dickenson and higginson that i mentioned earlier some -- so much of that book is non literary. it really is about anti slavery, the abolition movement, what happens to poetry, how it gets published, that is historical too. we don't just need words or another destination of native peoples to the history, history can be power a poem gets published so that is moving into this book with this particular, "ecstatic nation: confidence, crisis, and compromise, 1848-1877" was a tremendous opportuni
