In this episode we explore the background needed to understand the movement of English-speaking colonists into the Chesapeake Bay and Cape Cod areas. This episode is presented as a way to give you inroads into these writers and their works, though there is still much, much more to learn. The episode also explores the question of "Why do we need to read these works in a class on literature? What benefits can we gain from them?"
