The United States had conqueredthe West and extended its territory to overseas. Strangers from Eastern Europe and from Asia were pouring in, bringing totally new cultures to the ""New World.""This paper focuses on the roles and the efforts of Kate Sanborn, a female itinerant lecturer, to respond to this cultural change of the late nineteenth century. Long before there were radio and television audiences, Sanborn was able to fill lecture halls presenting informationabout "current" subjects. Not only through her lectures, but throughother communication tools, such as photo books, calendars, travel books,she offered information people wanted and gave advice on how to adapt and cope with the changing world. She was reaffirming the tradition of self−help and self−realization of a white and in her case female farmer, on the one hand and preparing for the dawn of the commercial age, on the other. In so doing she liberated herself from her New England tradition to become a female humorist, drawing on a much wider Americanexperience.}, pages = {65--83}, title = {The Transformation of Kate Sanborn (1838-1917) : Humor as a Prescription to Face a Vanishing America.}, volume = {21}, year = {2009}, yomi = {スギヤマ, ケイコ} }
