James Fenimore Cooper Auteur non identifié Source : Antiquity Project "Comme [Washington] Irving, James Fenimore Cooper sut évoquer le passé. Chez lui, on retrouve le mythe puissant de l'âge d'or et le regret poignant de sa perte. Tandis qu'Irving et d'autres avant et après lui parcouraient l'Europe en quête de ses légendes, de ses châteaux et de ses grands thèmes, Cooper sut saisir le mythe premier de l'Amérique : elle échappait au temps comme ses grands espaces. L'histoire de l'Amérique empiétait sur l'éternité; l'histoire européenne en Amérique consistait à rejouer la chute de l'homme chassé du paradis. Le domaine cyclique de la nature n'était perçu qu'au moment même de sa destruction; les étendues sauvages disparaissaient, s'évanouissant comme un mirage devant la ruée des pionniers. Telle est la vision fondamentalement tragique qu'avait Cooper de la destruction paradoxale des grands espaces, ce nouvel Eden qui avait attiré les premiers colons. Grâce à son expérience personnelle, Cooper sut évoquer avec force la transformation de la nature inviolée et bien d'autres sujets tels la mer ou le choc entre peuples de civilisations différentes. Né dans une famille quaker, il passa son enfance dans le domaine de son père à Otsego Lake (devenu Cooperstown) dans le centre de l'État de New York. La région, relativement paisible pendant l'enfance de Cooper, avait toutefois connu un massacre d'Indiens. Le jeune Cooper passa sa jeunesse dans un milieu quasi féodal. Son père, le juge Cooper, était propriétaire terrien et notable. Enfant, à Otsego Lake, il côtoya souvent des hommes de la Frontière et des Indiens.

Biography of James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851) Life Works James Fenimore Cooper was born on September 15, 1789 in Burlington, New Jersey, the eleventh of twelve children. When he was one year old, he moved with parents William and Elizabeth to Cooperstown on Ostego Lake in central New York. During Cooper's boyhood, there were few backwoods settlers left and even fewer Indians. However, Cooper's early experiences in this frontier town gave him the background knowledge used in the Pioneers After boarding school in Albany, Cooper attended Yale College from 1803 - 1805 but was expelled. Apparently his expulsion stemmed from a dangerous prank that involved him blowing up another student's door. There Cooper acquired his lifelong distaste for New Englanders. In 1806, he became a sailor and then a midshipman in the Navy. At twenty, he inherited a fortune from his father and married Susan Augusta De Lancey, the daughter of a wealthy family that had remained Loyalist during the Revolution. Cooper married De Lancey New Years Day, 1811 and for two years he led the life of a country gentleman. When all five of his older brothers died, leaving widows and children behind, Fenimore began searching for work and wealth. In 1820, Cooper's wife bet him that he could write a book better than the one she was reading. What followed was

Cooper's Indians Cooper has long been hailed by literary critics as creating one of the most enduring images of the Native American in American literature. In The Indian in American Literature , Albert Keiser states that "the writer who more than anyone else impressed his conception of the Indian upon America and the world at large is James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851), in eleven of whose books the red man plays a prominent part" (101). These eleven books are the five Leatherstocking Tales The Chainbearer The Oak Openings The Redskins Satanstoe The Wept of Wish-ton-wish , and Wyandotte While Cooper's Indians undeniably made an important impact on American fiction, they have been the subject of much literary debate. The most common charge leveled against Cooper is that the Indians did not resemble any that could be found in life; simply, they were wildly unrealistic. Indeed, Cooper did not have much first-hand knowledge of American Indians. In Savagism and Civilization , Roy Pearce states, "Cooper was interested in the Indian not for his own sake but for the sake of his relationship to the civilized men who were destroying him. So far as we can tell, Cooper had little personal contact with Indians. Rather, he read widely in the best authorities on individual tribes; in particular, we know that he read of the Delawares in Heckewelder and of the Plains Indians in Biddle's account of the expedition of Lewis and Clark..." (200). In fact, Cooper told his friend Sir Charles Augustus Murray, "I never was among the Indians. All I know of them is from reading, and from hearing my father speak of them" (qtd. in Pearce 200)

Cooper, James Fenimore American novelist, travel writer, and social critic, regarded as the first great American writer of fiction. He was famed for his action-packed plots and his vivid, if somewhat idealized, portrayal of American life in the forest and at sea. Born in Burlington, New Jersey, Cooper grew up in Cooperstown, a central New York State town founded by his father. Much of Cooper's knowledge of the forest and Native Americans was gathered firsthand during his boyhood in a region still very much a wilderness. After being expelled from Yale University in 1805 for his prankish behavior, Cooper served as a sailor in the merchant marine and as a midshipman in the United States Navy. He left naval service in 1811 to marry Susan DeLancey, and for several years managed his wife's income-producing estates in Westchester County, New York. Literary Beginnings Later Career Cooper's first work after returning to the United States was A Letter to His Countrymen (1834), one of the several works of social criticism in which he expressed his conservative attitude toward democracy. The satire The Monikins (1835) and The American Democrat (1838) continue in the same vein. Despite attacks in the press for his snobbery and antidemocratic stance, Cooper's works-including the four volumes of Gleanings in Europe (1837-1838), in which he described his travels abroad-remained popular.

JAMES FENIMORE COOPER American author (1789-1851) Biography: James Fenimore Cooper was born in Burlington in 1789 and grew in Cooperstown Colony, founded by his father. His stories on Indian people are set in this area that his father, William Cooper, colonized. He was discovered as a talented writer after reading one tale that he disregarded. But his first novel Precaution (1820) went unnoticed. It was in 1821 that he became successful, not only in America but also in Europe, for his novel The Spy Natty Bumpper, also called "Leatherstocking" by the settlers and "Hawkeye","Deerslayer" and "Pathfinder" by his Indian friends, has become the main character of five novels in Leather Stocking Novels (1823-1841), which recall the English and French war of the 18th century. Among his novels, The Last of the Mohicans Prairie and Deerslayer are the most famous ones. However, less corcerned about literature than about controversy and ideology, Cooper published some non-fictional works, such as his critical book The American Democrat (1838). Although his style was considered simple and naive by

At the height of his fame in the early nineteenth century, James Fenimore Cooper was America's foremost novelist and one of the most successful writers in the world. Judgments on his stature as a novelist have been less generous since that time, but few would dispute the cultural significance of his innovative tales. Building on the example of the British novelist Sir Walter Scott, Cooper wrote the first American historical novels and in the process made subjects such as Native Americans, the western wilderness, and the democratic political system compelling and popular topics for fiction. Cooper was raised in Cooperstown, the village his father founded in the forests of upstate New York. His third novel

He wrote to publisher Colburn in October of 1826, " The Pioneers is out of print, I believe, and The Mohicans must be nearly so. These two books with The Prairie will form a complete series of tales, descriptive of American life, of themselves. The Hero of one is the hero of all, in very different situations. Thus the scout of the Mohicans , is the hunter of the Pioneers and the Trapper of the Prairie . They might be published uniformly, under some taking GENERAL title, and I think would sell. I should be glad to revise them all, with this intention, for my own credit, for I think the subjects of which they treat, finished. I intend the next book to be nautical..."

HOME AUTHOR INDEX TITLE INDEX CATEGORY INDEX ... LINKS Cooper, James Fenimore Biography James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851) First major American novelist, whose best-known tales of frontier adventure include THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS (1826), an adventure story set in the Lake Champlain. It has been filmed several times, among others in 1936 and 1992. Through his Leatherstocking series Cooper created the archetype of the 18th-century frontiersman, Natty Bumppo. He lives free, close to nature, while the settlers bring 'civilization' that destroys the wilderness. Cooper wrote over thirty novels - he considered THE PATHFINDER (1841) and THE DEERSLAYER (1840) his best works. "Few men exhibit greater diversity, or, if we may so express it, greater antithesis of character than the native warrior of North America. In war, he is daring, boastful, cunning, ruthless, self-denying, and self-devoted; in peace, just, generous, hospitable, revengeful, superstitious, modest, and commonly chaste." (from The Last of the Mohicans James Fenimore Cooper was born in Burlington, New Jersey, the son of Quakers, Judge William Cooper and Elisabeth Fenimore Cooper. His father was a representative of the 4th and 6th Congress, and had attained wealth by developing virgin land. The family moved to Cooperstown, New York, which Judge Cooper had founded. James Fenimore spent his youth partly on the family estate on the shores of Otsego Lake. He roamed in the primeval forest and developed a love of nature which marked his books. Cooper was educated in the village school, and in 1800-02 in the household of the rector of St. Peter's.
