In "Call Me Ishmael," Charles Olson exclaimed "SPACE to be the
central fact to man born in America." Indeed, from the start,
history and identity in America have been intricately tied to
issues of space: from the idea of the "city upon a hill" to the
transnational (soft) power of the United States, space has always
served as an important parameter of power gained or lost and of the
struggles to maintain or resist it. With contributions that range
from the construction of America in (European) academic discourses
to children's fiction, this collection provides an extensive and
insightful study of how space influences our understanding of
America.
