  American in the Making the Life...

  "An American in the Making: The Life Story of an Immigrant" is an unconventional immigrant memoir written by Marcus Eli Ravage in 1917. Ravage, a Jewish American writer and journalist originally from Romania, provides a unique perspective on Americanization and the immigrant experience during the early 20th century.    Here are some key points about this thought-provoking work:    Context and Purpose:  Ravage's memoir was conceived at a time when immigrant writers were competing with sociological accounts of "the immigrant story."  Against the growing nativism of the late 1910s and 1920s, Ravage responded to previous representations of "the immigrant" by both immigrant and American writers and critics.  His work engages political and cultural debates surrounding Americanization.  Challenging Americanization:  Ravage presents an unexpected story of Americanization. He portrays himself as "an American in the making," neither fully Americanized nor a greenhorn but a subject of literary production.  His memoir challenges the dialectic of Americanization and shows awareness of his objectification in contemporaneous sociological studies and photojournalistic exposés.  Genre and Identity:  Ravage rewrites the genre of immigrant autobiography. He invites readers to rethink assumptions about immigrant autobiography.  By making immigrant and immigrant intellectual labor coterminous, he blurs the boundaries between these categories.  Legacy:  "An American in the Making" remains timely, especially given contemporary debates about immigration and national identity.  Ravage's memoir dramatizes the multifaceted facets of Americanization discourses and practices.  This memoir offers a fresh perspective on the immigrant experience, identity, and the complexities of becoming an American"
