Angela Ray looks at the lyceum lecture system as it developed in the US from the 1820s to the 1880s. She argues that the lyceum contributed to the creation of an American "public" at a time when the country experienced a change in land area, increasing immigration, and a revolution in transportation, communication technology, and social roles.
