Where do ideas fit into historical accounts that take an expansive,
global view of human movements and events? Teaching scholars of
intellectual history to incorporate transnational perspectives into
their work, while also recommending how to confront the challenges
and controversies that may arise, this original resource explains
the concepts, concerns, practice, and promise of "global
intellectual history," featuring essays by leading scholars on
various approaches that are taking shape across the discipline. The
contributors to Global Intellectual History explore the different
ways in which one can think about the production, dissemination,
and circulation of "global" ideas and ask whether global
intellectual history can indeed produce legitimate narratives. They
discuss how intellectuals and ideas fit within current conceptions
of global frames and processes of globalization and
proto-globalization, and they distinguish between ideas of the
global and those of the transnational, identifying what each
contributes to intellectual history. A crucial guide, this
collection sets conceptual coordinates for readers eager to map an
emerging area of study.
