American Literature – Before 1860
Colonialism is a practice of domination where one country establishes control over another territory, often through settlement and exploitation of resources. It involves the subjugation of local populations and imposition of the colonizer's culture, language, and governance structures. This practice significantly influenced the cultural, social, and economic landscapes of the colonized regions and shaped narratives, including personal accounts and religious texts that reflect the complexities of power dynamics and human experiences.
