"v. 1. Narrating Multiple America(s): A contribution to the ongoing debate in the field of American Studies in its most recent turn - Transnational American Studies - a paradigm shift in the discipline which runs counter to a consensus version of US history and culture. The essays highlight the dissenting narratives in the study of "America" as a mindscape, multivocal and varied in its discourses of race, class, gender, ethnicity, and nationality. They also evidence the interrelation of US with Europe, and examine how society, history, literature, and art intersect, providing alternative ways to comprehend the current geopolitical and cultural mindset on both sides of the Atlantic. These are interdisciplinary and diverse texts, authored by both senior leading scholars and promising younger researchers. The volume will benefit students and scholars of international American Studies, interdisciplinary and multicultural studies in history, sociology, modern languages literatures and cultures, cultural studies, comparative literatures, identity and ethnic studies, among others. It will also be of interest to researchers of American studies, transatlantic and transoceanic studies, diasporas and related fields of history, literature, art, and politics, as wellas to the general reader with a background in the social sciences and the humanities. v. 2. (Multi)Vocal Exchanges Across the Ocean: The second volume of the project American Studies Over_Seas, an edited collection of texts honoring two pioneering Portuguese scholars in American Literature and Culture. Devoted to relations between Portugal and the United States, it includes essays by leading scholars whose research illuminates the multifarious ways in which history, sociology and literature intersect. A special feature of this collection is the inclusion of creative writing pieces that provide an imaginative intellectual backdrop to the transnational turn in American Studies. The literary contributions focus on diasporic experiences, dramatizing issues of ethnicity, identity, and interculturality. The essays of a more personal nature highlight the career of the two honorees, discuss protocols involving academic exchanges, and showcase dialogues between Europe and America over the past 30 years. Of benefit to the academic and the interested reader, this volume enriches the metaphor of the Atlantic Ocean as a space not only of struggle but also of ongoing conversation"--

The volumes propose cutting-edge research within the field of American Studies, with knowledgeable and perceptive approaches into the subject of transnational and transatlantic relations.
