As american colonists questioned british rule, public discussion focused on topics such as colonial independence and individual rights. in turn, literature from the american revolutionary period often reflected important political and social themes, including national independence, personal liberty, and individualism. in your opinion, how does the literature of this period influence future generations of american literature? where have you seen traces of these themes and how were they presented in the other literature you read?

This is a question asking a personal opinion, so I'll give you mine.

I believe the literature from this period influenced the future generations of American Literature is it taught us to be independent, to stand up against those who simply expect us to follow like mindless sheep. It influenced literature by showing everyone that their opinion matters, even against your authority, and that has influenced books and passages heavily since. 

Traces of these themes can be seen everywhere. Authors from all over make books about how standing up is the best thing to do, and how being independent is important. Books, passages, texts, websites, etc all preach this. This is presented in various situations where independence is important.
