Notes on Contributors


Over the past decade, a new transnational movement has emerged within 
American Studies. It centers on the efforts of US-based Americanists to 
conduct transnational and comparative research while recognizing that 
scholars working outside the geographical boundaries of the US have just 
as much to contribute to American Studies as those within its borders. 
Such an approach not only fills in the blanks of historical, literary 
and cultural studies to include diasporic participants, but also 
enriches our understanding of major American events, figures, and 
influences beyond the limited geographic framework of the United States. 
Despite increasing interest, transnational American Studies remains a 
subdiscipline, or one of a host of many «side interests» for most 
scholars. There exist few booklength studies which examine American 
Studies from the Turkish perspective, and little on the contributions of 
Turkey to American culture. This interdisciplinary volume seeks to begin 
a transnational dialogue between Turkey and the United States by 
highlighting the work that is being conducted by noted Turkish 
academics, American researchers, as well as foreign scholars working in 
Turkey, many of whom are living examples of transnationality.
