The Literature of Liberty: How the Written Word Still Shapes the American Idea

Seattle, Washington Jul 1, 2026 (EMWNews.com) – Pamphlets and printed arguments helped ignite the American Revolution. Two hundred fifty years later, Dex System’s eighth Semiquincentennial release asks what role literature plays in defining liberty today — including for stories generated with the help of artificial intelligence.

Chester Craig’s Portals and Brent Newman’s six-volume Practical Mysticism series each explore, in very different ways, the tension between structure and freedom that has run through American letters since its founding.
