The Reader is the first volume to define the emerging field of Transatlantic Literary Studies. It brings together a wide range of material to engage with the theoretical and literary possibilities of the transatlantic as an arena for textual and intellectual exchange. The book is structured thematically, with sections on Nation and Cosmopolitanism, Theories and Practices of Comparative Literature, Imperialism and the Postcolonial, Translation, Style and Genre, and Travel. It brings together readings from key thinkers in these areas, including Edward Said, Paul Gilroy, Wai Chee Dimock and Mary Louise Pratt.
