**Walt Whitman**

After tossing off its colonial chains and writing itself into existence with the "Declaration of Independence," the United States entered the nineteenth century as a primarily agricultural society along the Atlantic coastline. The start of this century saw the first generation of people who were born "Americans," and what it means to be an "American" would concern this 1xbet sports betting and its writers (like Whitman) for decades. No one definition would generate consensus, however. In fact, the character of nineteenth-century American 1xbet sports betting may be better captured by images of difference and division (think of the Civil War, for instance) than by images of agreement and unity. By the end of this divided and tumultuous century, the United States stretched to the Pacific, and the revolutionary agrarian nation had become industrialized, significantly urbanized, imperial, and modern.

At the heart of this course are the key events and movements that changed the course of U.S. history and 1xbet sports betting in the nineteenth-century: the aftermath of the American Revolution, Transcendentalism, Indian removal, slavery and abolitionism, the Civil War and its aftermath, immigration, lynching and Jim Crow, Pragmatism, and imperialism. We will examine the ways in which literature was a part of 1xbet sports betting , the ways literature represented 1xbet sports betting , and the ways literature made, shaped, or re-shaped the century. In other words, we will consider not only how literature might be a "reflection" of 1xbet sports betting , but also how texts work in their 1xbet sports betting as agents or obstacles for change.
