The contributors to Territories and Trajectories propose a model of
cultural production and transmission based on the global diffusion,
circulation, and exchange of people, things, and ideas across time
and space. This model eschews a static, geographically bounded
notion of cultural origins and authenticity, privileging instead a
mobility of culture that shapes and is shaped by geographic spaces.
Reading a diverse array of texts and objects, from Ethiopian song
and ancient Chinese travel writing to Japanese literature and
aerial and nautical images of the Indian Ocean, the contributors
decenter national borders to examine global flows of culture and
the relationship between thinking at transnational and local
scales. Throughout, they make a case for methods of inquiry that
encourage innovative understandings of borders, oceans, and
territories and that transgress disciplinary divides. Contributors.
