Atlantic History and the Literary Turn

The article Atlantic History and the Literary Turn discusses the relationship between Atlantic history and literary studies, particularly the role of literary scholarship in shaping and developing the field of Atlantic history. Eliga H. Gould argues that Atlantic history is not limited to the study of economic activities, trade, migration, the slave trade, and political relations among Europe, Africa, and the Americas. It has also been significantly influenced by cultural and literary studies. The cultural turn in the 1980s and early 1990s encouraged historians to broaden their approaches by incorporating literary texts and theories to investigate national identity, imperial identity, and the formation of transatlantic communities.
