This volume looks at a key component of recent US foreign relations, namely, its emphasis on "hearts and minds" as part of its cultural management of the global Other. The authors collected here analyze to what extent we can frame the intent and consequences of this term as a coherent policy, discussing how to think about foreign policy strategies that involve the management of cultural relations. "Including fascinating first-hand and deeply-researched accounts of the workings of various US institutions (many of them 'cultural'), this volume is a must for an understanding of the power the US projects worldwide." Professor Laleh Khalili, SOAS University of London "This fascinating collection reveals the nuance and complexity behind a seemingly banal phrase." Professor David Schmid, State University of New York at Buffalo
The modernist bookshop, best exemplified by Sylvia Beach's Shakespeare & Co. and Harold Monro's Poetry Bookshop, has received scant attention outside these more prominent examples. This writing will review how bookshops like David Archer's on Parton Street (London) in the 1930s were sites of distribution, publication, and networking. Parton Street, which also housed Lawrence & Wishart publishers and a briefly vibrant literary scene, will be approached from several contexts as a way of situating the modernist bookshop within both the book trade and the literary communities which it interacted with and made possible.
