his book charts how the cartographies
of American literature as an institutional
category have varied radically across differ¬
ent times and places. Arguing that American
literature was consolidated as a distinctively
nationalist entity only in the wake of the U.S.
Civil War, Paul Giles identifies this formation
as extending until the beginning of the Rea¬
gan presidency in
1981.
He contrasts this with
the more amorphous boundaries of American
culture in the eighteenth century, and with
ways in which conditions of globalization
at the turn of the twenty-first century have
reconfigured the parameters of the subject.
In light of these fluctuating conceptions of
space, Giles suggests new ways of understand¬
ing the shifting territory of American liter¬
ary history. Ranging from Cotton Mather to
David Foster Wallace, and from Henry Wad-
sworth Longfellow to
Zora Neale
Hurston,
Giles considers why European medievalism
and Native American prehistory were crucial
to classic nineteenth-century authors such as
Emerson, Hawthorne, and Melville. He dis¬
cusses how twentieth-century technological
innovations, such as air travel, affected repre¬
sentations of the national domain in the texts
of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Gertrude Stein. And
he analyzes how regional projections of the
South and the Pacific Northwest helped to
shape the work of writers such as William
Gilmore Simms,
José Martí,
Elizabeth Bishop,
and William Gibson.
Bringing together literary analysis, political
history, and cultural geography, The Global
Remapping of American Literature reorients
the subject for the transnational era.
