Indian Princess Pocahontas was a daughter of King Powhatan and her relation with Captain John Smith has been so often discussed and talked of among historians and romancers that she has been regarded not only as the firsht woman in the history of the United States but has become a heroine of many dramas and novels in the nineteenth century. But since the turn of the century, especially during and after the World War I, poets such as William Carlos Williams, Carl Sandburg, Vached Lindsay and Hard Crane, looked Pocahontas as the origin of Americans or as The Earth Mother; she was taken not as a historical figure bus as a mythical lady. And after the World War II, the Pulitzer Prize winner poet Louis Simpson portrayed a new princess Pocahontas in his At the End of the Open Road, and the novelish John Barth showed us a quite different princess in his farcical, picaresque and black humored novel The Sot-Weed Factor.
