A COMPANION TO MULTIETHNIC LITERATURE OF THE UNITED STATES

A Companion to Multiethnic Literature of the United States is the most comprehensive collection of scholarship dedicated to US literature by authors of varied ethnic backgrounds. Bringing together a diverse panel of leading contributors in the field, this authoritative volume draws on a wide range of critical and theoretical methodologies to analyze the histories, genres, themes, cultural and geographical contexts, and new directions of multiethnic literature.

The first reference work of its kind, the Companion explores how the study of multiethnic literature informs literary scholarship while highlighting cutting-edge approaches and frameworks such as ecocriticism, refugee and diaspora studies, hemispheric and transnational studies, critical race theory, digital humanities, gender and sexuality, popular culture, material and visual culture, and many more. Thirty-one in-depth chapters address African American, Latinx, Native American, Asian American, Jewish American, and Arab American literatures, among others.

Throughout the book, the authors highlight significant themes and major critical trends in a variety of genres, discuss how recent developments in critical theory impact the reading and interpretation of multiethnic US literature, consider how technology and digital access to archival materials are changing the study, reception, and writing of multiethnic US literature, and much more.

A Companion to Multiethnic Literature of the United States is an invaluable resource for undergraduate and graduate students, scholars and researchers, instructors, and general readers studying all aspects of US literature.
