"The Hoosiers" by Meredith Nicholson is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work examines the cultural, social, and literary evolution of Indiana, highlighting the state's development and the various forces that shaped it over time. Nicholson presents a nuanced portrayal of the Hoosier identity, countering common stereotypes about the inhabitants with a deeper understanding of their contributions to American culture. At the start of "The Hoosiers," the author sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of Indiana's historical context, emphasizing how the state's origins and early inhabitants influenced its intellectual life. He discusses the complex relationship between the Hoosiers’ pioneering past and their eventual emergence as a community capable of substantive literary and cultural output. The opening chapters introduce the state's formation and early demographics, providing a backdrop for the subsequent discussion about the development of education and cultural enlightenment in Indiana. Through a meticulous review of historical influences and prominent figures, Nicholson argues that the progress of Indiana should be recognized not merely as a series of literary achievements but as a collective effort to uplift the community's general cultivation.
