"Domestic Manners of the Americans" by Frances Milton Trollope offers a vivid account of her travels through the United States in the early 19th century. The narrative begins with Trollope's arrival in New Orleans, where she is struck by the cultural and social dynamics, particularly the stark racial divisions and the evolving Creole society. Her journey continues up the Mississippi River, where she describes the desolate landscapes and the challenging living conditions of the settlers. Trollope's observations extend to the peculiarities of American social customs, such as the informal dining etiquette and the pervasive habit of spitting, which she finds distasteful. As she travels further, she visits the settlement of Nashoba, an experimental community founded by Frances Wright, aimed at proving the intellectual equality of African Americans through education. Trollope's stay there is brief, as she is concerned about the health implications of the climate. Her journey concludes in Cincinnati, a city she finds lacking in the sophistication and amenities she expected. Throughout her travels, Trollope provides a critical yet insightful perspective on the American way of life, highlighting both the potential and the shortcomings of the young nation.
Frances Trollope, née le 10 mars 1779 à Stapleton et morte le 6 octobre 1863 à Florence, est une romancière anglaise.
