Race and Transatlantic Identities provides a rich overview of the
complex relationship between the construction of race and
transatlantic identity as expressed in a variety of cultural forms,
refracted through different disciplinary and critical perspectives,
and manifested at different historical moments. Spanning a period
from the eighteenth to the twentieth century, the contributions
provide a panorama of the wealth and variety of contemporary
approaches to grappling with notions of race in a transatlantic
context, raising questions about the permanence and fixity of
racial boundaries. The volume, which focuses on the cultural sites
where individuals construct and express their racial identities in
the context of those boundaries, also explores strategies through
which those boundaries are defined and redefined. The collection
conducts this inquiry by juxtaposing essays on literature, history,
visual arts, material culture, music, and dance in ways that
encourage the reader to engage with concepts across traditional
disciplinary boundaries. The articles in this book were originally
published in the Journal of Transatlantic Studies.
