Krátky popis
The Last of the Mohicans is a historical novel by James Fenimore
Cooper, first published in January 1826.It was one of the most
popular English-language novels of its time. Its narrative flaws
were criticized from the start, and its length and elaborately
formal prose style have reduced its appeal to later readers.
Regardless, The Last of the Mohicans is widely read in American
literature courses. This second book of the Leatherstocking Tales
pentalogy is the best known. The Pathfinder, written 14 years later
in 1840, is its sequel.Cooper named a principal character Uncas
after the most famous of the Mohicans. The real Mohicans lived in
the colony of Connecticut in the mid-seventeenth century, and not
in the New York frontier a century later. Uncas was a Mohegan, not
a Mohican, and Cooper's usage has helped to confuse the names of
two tribes to the present day. When John Uncas, his last surviving
male descendant died in 1842, the Newark Daily Advertiser wrote
"Last of the Mohegans Gone" lamenting the extinction of the tribe.
The writer was not aware that Mohegans still existed then and to
the present day.The story takes place in 1757 during the Seven
Years' War (known in America as the French and Indian War), when
France and the United Kingdom battled for control of the American
and Canadian colonies. During this war, the French often allied
themselves with Native American tribes in order to gain an
advantage over the British, with unpredictable and often tragic
results.Source: Wikipedia
