James Fenimore Cooper was a prolific and popular American writer of the first half of the 19th century. His historical romances of frontier and Indian life in the early American days created a unique form of American literature. Precaution is the first novel written by Cooper written in imitation of Jane Austen`s novels of English gentry manners. It is mainly interesting today as a document in the history of American cultural colonialism and as an example of an attempt to imitate Jane Austen`s investigation of the ironic discrepancy between illusion and reality.

Although the rakish hero is a stock prototype in the romantic novel, he is usually in the background: the plot is dominated by the heroine whom he pursues; she monopolizes the attention of readers and invites them to identify with her. However, the sexually predatory male character is more than just a handsome place-filler: he represents a reflection of what the heroine secretly aspires to – in the terms of Karen Horney, her idealized image. By recognizing the destructiveness of this image and rejecting it for a less rebellious and more self-effacing idealized image, the heroine can complete her education, the key enterprise of the coming-of-age novel. This makes the male sexual predator vital to the plot, since he makes the education...
