An Analysis of Frederick Jackson Turner's The Significance of the Frontier in American History by Joanna Dee Das

Turners much-anthologized 1893 essay argues that the vast western frontier shaped the modern American characterand the course of US history. Interacting with both the wilderness and Native Americans, settlers on the frontier developed institutions and character traits quite distinct from Europe.

Dr Joanna Dee Das holds a PhD in history from Columbia University. She has taught at Barnard College and Stanford University, and currently teaches at Washington University in St Louis.

Dr Joseph Tendler received his PhD from the University of St Andrews. He is a specialist in historiography, the study of how history is conceived and written, and is the author of Opponents of the Annales School.
