History profoundly influenced American literature by shaping its themes, styles, and narratives. The nation's experiences, such as colonization, the Revolutionary War, slavery, and civil rights movements, prompted writers to explore identity, freedom, and social justice. These historical contexts birthed distinct literary movements, from Romanticism to Realism, reflecting the evolving American experience. Authors like Mark Twain and Toni Morrison utilized historical events to critique society and illuminate the complexities of the American character.
