While at one time transatlantic studies concentrated predominantly on men's travels, this volume highlights the resilience of women who ventured voluntarily and by force across the Atlantic--some seeking mobility, adventure, knowledge, wealth, and freedom, and others surviving subjugation, capture, and enslavement. The essays gathered here concern themselves with the fictional and the historical, national and geographic location, racial and ethnic identities, and the configuration of the transatlantic world in increasingly taught texts such as \u003ci\u003eThe Female American\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Woman of Colour\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as less familiar material such as Merian's writing on the insects of Surinam and Falconbridge's travels to Sierra Leone. Intersectional in its approach, and with an afterword by Eve Tavor Bannet, this essential collection will prove indispensable as it provides fresh new perspectives on transatlantic texts and women's travel therein across the long eighteenth century. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Misty Krueger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1684482968\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781684482962\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bucknell University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/12\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Misty Krueger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46721574011135,"sku":"9781684482962","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a9411e29-a9d6-44c5-af88-e191b91acb4f.jpg?v=1742753270","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/transatlantic-women-travelers-1688-1843-misty-krueger-9781684482962","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
