Country Life and Environment with special reference to Sarah Orne Jewett

  • Dr. Esther Rosalind

Abstract

In a great line of American writers, Sarah Orne Jewett is a writer of imaginative literature concerning the natural scene. For her, the scene is not a mere backdrop, but a framework for philosophical thought, social criticism and religious devotion. Nature is the subject of her writing and the origin of her creative instincts. Jewetts relationship with her birth place Berwick, Maine, illustrates the degree to which a strong bond with place impacts her attitude toward it.
