American Literature in the World

American Literature in the world is an innovative anthology offering a new way to understand the global forces that have shaped the making of American literature. Th wid-ranging selections are structured around five interconnected nodes: war; food; work, play, and travel; religions; and human and nonhuman interfaces. Through these five categoriesm Wai Chee Dimock and a team of emerging scholars reveal American literature to be a complex network, informed by crosscurrents both macro and micro, with local practices intensified by international concerns.
