European colonial powers fought intensively here against indigenous populations and against each other for control of land and resources. The regions in the American Tropics share a history in which the dominant fact is the arrival of millions of white Europeans and black Africans; share an environment that is tropical or sub-tropical; and share a socio-economic model (the plantation), whose effects lasted at least well into the twentieth century. The imaginative space of the American Tropics therefore offers a differently centred literary history from those conventionally produced as US, Caribbean, or Latin American literature.This important collection brings together essays by distinguished scholars, including the late Neil Whitehead, Richard Price, Sally Price, and Susan Gillman, that engage with the idea of a literary geography of the American Tropics and that represent the rich diversity of the writing produced within this geographical area.American tropics ;2.American literatureHistory and criticismCaribbean literatureHistory and criticismCentral American literatureHistory and criticismLatin American literatureHistory and criticismImperialism in literatureWest IndiesIn literatureLatin AmericaIn literatureAmerican literatureHistory and criticism.Caribbean literatureHistory and criticism.Central American literatureHistory and criticism.Latin American literatureHistory and criticism.Imperialism in literature.809.897Fumagalli Maria CristinaHulme PeterRobinson OwenWylie LesleyUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910790872903321Surveying the American tropics3689848UNINA
