Consider that Cotton Mather spoke half a dozen languages American Literature and wrote in both Spanish American Literature and Latin. Or that the first short story known to have been written by an African American (and reproduced here) was written in French. Not only a literature of immigration American Literature and assimilation. American multilingual literature participates in the larger literarytradition which too often marginalizes authors who complicate the fit of authorship, citizenship, American Literature and language.
