In "Diary in America, Series Two," Frederick Marryat embarks on a compelling exploration of early 19th-century American society, capturing the vibrant essence of a nation in transformation. Written in an engaging, narrative style, Marryat employs vivid descriptions and a keen observational eye to document his travels across the newly expanding United States. The text serves as both a personal diary and a cultural commentary, reflecting on themes of democracy, individualism, and the contrast between old-world customs and the burgeoning American identity. His keen insights offer a nuanced perspective on the complexities of life in a young republic amid rapid industrial and social change. Frederick Marryat, a distinguished British novelist and a veteran naval officer, drew upon his diverse experiences at sea and abroad to inform his literary pursuits. His firsthand observations of diverse cultures and societies enriched his narrative framework, enabling him to engage critically with the American landscape. Marryats personal journey and his intrinsic curiosity about the New World position him as a significant voice in the travel literature genre of his time. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in American history, travel literature, and the cultural exchanges between Europe and America. Marryats reflections provide an invaluable lens through which to understand the complexities of identity and belonging in a rapidly evolving world.

Escrito por Frederick Marryat


Frederick Marryat (1792 - 1848) va abandonar l'any 1830, una brillant carrera a la marina de guerra britànica per dedicar-se exclusivament a la literatura. La seva narrativa sol tenir el mar com a escenari, amb aventures i combats com a ingridients bàsics d l'acció. Immensament admirat en el seu temps, segueix sent-ho avui, i moltes de les seves obres ("Peter Simple", "El guardiana marina Easy", "El vaixell fantasma"...) continuen sent editades, tradüides i llegides en diferents idiomes. Autors com Mark Twain, Ernest Hemingway, Joseph Conrad o, més recentment, C. S. Forester, entre molts altres, el consideren el fundador de la moderna narrativa naval. "La lloba que fou" també el situa com un autor crucial de la literatura fantàstica en el l'àmbit temàtic de l'home-llop.
