Book Synopsis Hospitality and the Transatlantic Imagination, 1815–1835 by : Cynthia Schoolar Williams
Book excerpt: Hospitality and the Transatlantic Imagination, 1815-1835 argues that a select group of late-Romantic English and American writers disrupted national tropes by reclaiming their countries' shared historical identification with hospitality. In doing so, they reimagined the spaces of encounter: the city, the coast of England, and the Atlantic itself.
