This book traces the global circulation of cultures and ideologies
from the technological and democratic revolutions of the long
nineteenth century to liberal and neoliberal modernity. Focussing
on moments of coerced (colonial and postcolonial) and voluntary
contact rather than national boundaries, the author draws attention
to the global scope of literatures and geopolitical commodities as
actants in world affairs, as in processes of liberalization,
democratization, and trade, but also to the distinctiveness of each
local environment at its moments of transculturation. Based in
extensive experience in collaborative, multilingual,
interdisciplinary networks, the book synthesizes existing
theoretical scholarship, provides original case studies of
world-historical Victorian and modern writers, and articulates a
new interdisciplinary methodology for literary studies in a global
context. It will be of interest to Victorianists, modernists,
comparatists, political theorists, translators, and scholars of
world literatures, world ecology, and globalization.
