- Abstract
The article discusses James Fenimore Cooper's views on manipulation, corruption, and enfranchisement in the Jacksonian Age. It mentions that in August 1832, he had written from Belgium to his brother Richard Cooper lauding the progress of liberality in America. It reveals that Cooper's overt attention to political themes began in serious form before his return to America with the publication of his European novels.
