Transnationalism and American Literature: Literary Translation 1773-1892

by Coleen Glenney Boggs

Transnationalism and American Literature: Literary Translation 1773-1892 Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

What is transnationalism and  how does it affect American literature? This book examines  nineteenth century contexts of transnationalism, translation and American literature.  The discussion of transnationalism largely revolves around the question of what role nationalism plays in the spaces and temporalities of the transatlantic. Boggs demonstrates that the  assumption that American literature has become transnational only recently that there is such a thing as an era of transnationalism marks a blindness to the intrinsic transatlanticism of American literature.
