Smaranda Ștefanovici, Assoc. Prof., PhD, UMFST "G.E. Palade" of Târgu Mureș

Abstract:
This study explores how New England's cultural, historical, and environmental contexts have deeply influenced its literary tradition. By analyzing works from notable New England authors like Emily Dickinson and Robert Frost, the research investigates how the region's unique characteristics impact American literature's themes and storytelling styles. The paper establishes a theoretical foundation based on regionalism and sense of place theory to guide the in-depth analysis of literary texts. The main focus is on themes such as nature, morality, and community life that define New England's literary identity. This examination reveals the significant influence of the region on its writers. It contributes to a broader understanding of how geographical settings shape literary creativity.
