A superb combination of focused case studies and high level
conceptual thinking, this volume is an important monument in the
ongoing development of Inter-American studies The articles gathered
here closely examine a wide variety of cultural phenomena
implicated in the 'entanglements' which have defined the history of
the Americas. From religious networks to music and dance, and
across a range of literary and artistic works, the mobility of
people, objects, and ideas in the Americas is expertly mapped. At
the same time, the book represents a serious enterprise of
theory-building. Drawing on the histories of postcolonial thought,
mobility studies, and work on human migration, Mobile and Entangled
America(s) clearly establishes a new interdisciplinary field
attentive both to the complexities of cultural form and the
pervasiveness of power relations. Each article stands as a
significant piece of scholarship on its own, but all are in
dialogue with each other. The result is a richly satisfying and
important volume of cultural scholarship.
