Introduction: Testing Times for American Studies
In the light of two recent calls for papers received by our office, it seems that American Studies is in a highly transitional state. The first, for a session at MLA 2016 in the “Ecocriticism and Environmental Humanities” division, solicits contributions on “After Transnational American Studies,” with subject-areas covering “transnationality, Americanity, globality, planetarity, empire and/or the anthroposcene” “CFP: After Transnational.” These categories seem especially intriguing, not so much for what they cover as for what they omit
