This article is about the American Renaissance in literature. For the use of the term in architecture and the arts, see American Renaissance. For the white supremacist periodical, see American Renaissance (magazine).

The American Renaissance period in American literature ran from about 1830 to around the Civil War.[1] A central term in American studies, the American Renaissance was for a while considered synonymous with American Romanticism[2] and was closely associated with Transcendentalism.[3]
