Edwards.The discipline of American studies was established in the early days of World War II and drew on the myth of American exceptionalism. Now that the so-called American Century has come to an end, what would a truly globalized version of American studies look like? Brian T. Edwards and Dilip Parameshwar Gaonkar offer a new standard for the field's transnational aspiration with Globalizing American Studies. The essays here offer a comparative, multilingual, or multisited approach to ideas and representations of America. The contributors explore unexpected perspectives on the international circulation of American culture: the traffic of American movies within the British Empire, the reception of the film Gone with the Wind in the Arab world, the parallels between Japanese and American styles of nativism, and new incarnations of American studies itself in the Middle East and South Asia. The essays elicit a forgotten multilateralism long inherent in American history and provide vivid accounts of post-Revolutionary science communities, late-nineteenth century Mexican border crossings, African American internationalism, Cold War womanhood in the United States and Soviet Russia, and the neo-Orientalism of the new obsession with Iran, among others. Bringing together established scholars already associated with the global turn in American studies with contributors who specialize in African studies, East Asian studies, Latin American studies, media studies, anthropology, and other areas, Globalizing American Studies is an original response to an important disciplinary shift in academia.ExceptionalismUnited StatesAmericanistsPhilosophyUnited StatesStudy and teachingglobalization, america, united states, academic, scholarly, research, college, university, literature, literary, english major, academia, textbook, wwii, postwar, wartime, world war, exceptionalism, myth, comparative, multilingual, international, culture, cultural, movies, gone with the wind, arab, british, japanese, nativism, cinema, cinematic, theatre, theatrical, film, history, historical.ExceptionalismAmericanistsPhilosophy.973.071Edwards Brian T.1968-709960Gaonkar Dilip Parameshwar1945-1476107MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785593103321Globalizing American studies3690507UNINA01037nam0 22002531i 450 UON0003170120231205102104.20020020107d1969 |0itac50 baengUS|||| 1||||TURKISH fairy tales and folk talescoll. by Ignacz Kunostransl. from the hungarian version by R.
