This Companion offers a critical overview of the diverse and
dynamic field of Atlantic literary studies, with contributions by
distinguished scholars on a series of topics that define the area.
The essays focus on literature and culture from first contact to
the present, exploring fruitful Atlantic connections across space
and time, across national cultures, and embracing literature,
culture and society. This research collection proposes that the
analysis of literature and culture does not depend solely upon
geographical setting to uncover textual meaning. Instead, it offers
Atlantic perspectives on migration, race, gender and sexuality,
ecologies, and other significant ideological crossovers in the
Atlantic world. The result is an exciting new critical map created
by leading international researchers of a lively and expanding
field. Key Features-- Offers an introduction to the growing field
of Atlantic literary studies by showcasing current work engaged in
debate around historical, cultural and literary issues in the
Atlantic World.-- Includes 26 newly-commissioned scholarly essays
by leading experts in Atlantic literary studies.-- Fuses breadth of
historical knowledge with depth of literary scholarship.--
Considers the full range of intercultural encounters around and
across the Atlantic Ocean.
