From Venice to Vietnam, from the Welsh coast to Cairo, Don Meredith has travelled in the wake of 20th-century writers, using their novels and poems as guides, as another wayfarer might turn to Fodor’s or the Guide Bleu. Canvassing the works of authors especially attuned to a sense of place, the author has gone in search of the backstreets, basilicas, cafes, piazzas and countrysides that figured so powerfully in their writings. Part travelogue, part literary study, this text is the author’s account of these explorations into the impact of place in 12 literary classics.

Such scholarly discussion, however enlightening, has in recent years also led to polarizations of views, fragmentations of interests and attention, and bouts of intolerance within the field. In this collection of essays by eight prominent scholars, each of whom presents a divergent ontological, epistemological, or methodolodical view on the study of internationa

On a hot summer day in 1929, the citizens of Charleston, South Carolina, participated in one of the largest celebrations in the city’s history-the opening of the Cooper River Bridge. After years of quarrels, financial obstructions, and political dogfights, the great bridge was completed, and for the first time, Charleston had a direct link to the north. From the doldrums of the Depression to the growth of the 1990s, the Cooper River Bridge played a vital role in Charleston’s transformation from an impoverished, isolated city to a vibrant and prosperous metropolis. Now obsolete a
