James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851) est l’un des écrivains américains les plus influents du XIXe siècle. Né dans le New Jersey et élevé dans l’État de New York, il a marqué la littérature par ses récits d’aventure et ses fresques historiques, notamment la série *Leatherstocking Tales*, dont *The Pioneers* est le premier volet. Son œuvre, inspirée par sa connaissance intime des paysages et des tensions de la frontière américaine, explore les conflits entre civilisation et nature, entre tradition et progrès. Cooper est aujourd’hui considéré comme un pionnier du roman américain moderne.
