About this book series

This series, now published by Palgrave Macmillan, presents studies of early modern contacts and exchanges among the states, polities, cultures, religions, and entrepreneurial organizations of Europe; Asia, including the Levant and East India/Indies; Africa; and the Americas. Books in New Transculturalisms will continue to investigate diverse figures, such as travelers, merchants, cultural inventors—explorers, mapmakers, artists, craftsmen, and writers—as they operated in political, mercantile, sexual, affective, and linguistic economies. We encourage authors to reflect on their own methodologies in relation to issues and theories relevant to the study of transculturalism, translation, and transnationalism.

As the pages of recent issues of Renaissance Quarterly show only too clearly, the global or transnational turn in Renaissance studies is now in full swing … Now, in the postcolonial age, we are turning to the exploration of different models of transfer between the various regions and peoples of Europe and between Europe and the rest of the globe …The series Transculturalisms … has been publishing important and influential volumes in the field since 2008, with Ashgate, Routledge, and now Palgrave.
