    "In a work of critical reflection and innovation, William Boelhower examines the cultural shift represented by the new paradigm of Atlantic studies, a discipline that emerged equally from an older Atlantic history, defined by imperial traditions, and a newer, critical front of postcolonial and cultural studies. Divided into three sections, Atlantic Studies: Prospects and Challenges offers a critical survey of the field that also proposes new horizons for inquiry and critique. Part 1, "Concepts and Genealogy," analyzes the interdisciplinary methodologies that emerged to approach the Atlantic world in a larger, circum-Atlantic context, studying the exchanges of peoples and cultures instead of rigidly defined national and international boundaries. Part 2, "Case Studies across the Humanities," offers new readings of three well-known literary texts--Shakespeare's The Tempest, Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter, and Frederick Douglass's "The Heroic Slave"--as exemplars of how an Atlantic studies perspective acknowledges spatial and cultural dimensions that disrupt the traditional scales of national literatures. Part 3, "The Cartographic Challenge," foregrounds the new expertise that went into the mapping of the Atlantic world as it emerged in the early modern period, focusing on maps drawn in the late 1400s and early 1500s, travel literature, and the genres of utopia and shipwreck. Boelhower argues for the importance of analyzing cartographic practices and strategies to understand how they shaped the visual and textual representations of the Atlantic world. Written by one of the founders of the discipline, Atlantic Studies: Prospects and Challenges offers both an accessible overview of the field and an engaging reflection on the challenges it faces going forward"--

    "Christopher Blakley's Empire of Brutality is a human-animal history of slaving and slavery in the Atlantic World between the end of the seventeenth century and the abolition of the Atlantic trade in 1808. His multidisciplinary study examines how varied relationships between enslaved people and animals led to the dehumanization and racialization of people of African descent in the Americas. Blakley discusses the role of animal exchanges among slavers in West Africa, the knowledge and curiosity of enslaved specimen collectors in the Atlantic world, regimes of labor on Caribbean and Chesapeake plantations, and the forms of resistance that enslaved people engaged in by injuring, killing, stealing, and thinking about animals. His analysis provides a better understanding of why enslaved people emphasized in their writing how slaveholders compared them to animals, suggesting that critiques of slavery as dehumanizing by people of African descent were to a marked degree the result of these material human-animal networks and linkages. Blakley's study brings together disparate geographies-including the castle trade in Atlantic Africa, slave depots in New Spain, and plantations in the British Caribbean and Chesapeake worlds-to build on the emerging literature of human-animal studies and new scholarship in early American environmental history. His work is among the first to approach human-animal networks under slavery systematically and comprehensively. It makes a significant contribution by historicizing human-animal relations produced by Atlantic-wide networks of slavery. It also provides an analysis of these linkages that, over time, led to the racialization and dehumanization of people of African descent as animal-like subjects. In this way, his work offers an important environmental and material basis for the rich scholarship on the ideological and intellectual origins of race and racism. It also illuminates the divergent affective responses of enslaved people towards animals ranging from curiosity to disgust and empathy"--

Divided into three sections, Atlantic Studies: Prospects and Challenges offers a critical survey of the field that also proposes new horizons for inquiry and critique. Part 1, "Concepts and Genealogy," analyzes the interdisciplinary methodologies that emerged to approach the Atlantic world in a larger, circum-Atlantic context, studying the exchanges of peoples and cultures instead of rigidly defined national and international boundaries. Part 2, "Case Studies across the Humanities," offers new readings of three well-known literary texts--Shakespeare's The Tempest, Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter, and Frederick Douglass's "The Heroic Slave"--as exemplars of how an Atlantic studies perspective acknowledges spatial and cultural dimensions that disrupt the traditional scales of national literatures. Part 3, "The Cartographic Challenge," foregrounds the new expertise that went into the mapping of the Atlantic world as it emerged in the early modern period, focusing on maps drawn in the late 1400s and early 1500s, travel literature, and the genres of utopia and shipwreck. Boelhower argues for the importance of analyzing cartographic practices and strategies to understand how they shaped the visual and textual representations of the Atlantic world. Written by one of the founders of the discipline, Atlantic Studies: Prospects and Challenges offers both an accessible overview of the field and an engaging reflection on the challenges it faces going forward"--
