"This, then, is a rich and varied and highly stimulating volume."Chris Saunders in 12/2 (2011) "Transnational American Memories is an ambitious book which unites concepts of Memory Studies with those of transnational American Studies. [...] The innovative contributions succeed in bringing Memory Studies beyond the focus on local or national sites without losing the idea of American national identity formation. Thus the book becomes particularly useful for scholars of American Studies, and those who focus on Memory Studies will find many turns and conclusions of the texts surprising and enriching."Andrea Zittlau in: KULT online 27/2011 "Transnational American Memories is an extremely valuable addition to the innovative "Media and Cultural Memory" series [...]: It provides a broad overview over the current scholarship and gives a glimpse of the transnational future of memory studies."Kathleen Loock in: Amerikastudien/ American Studies 3/2009 "[...] this is a rich, thoughtful, and thought-provoking collection - very competently edited and handsomely produced. It will prove an important resource for students and scholars of Amercian literature, history, and culture; and it is also of considerable interest to students and teachers of postcolonial literature and narrative theory."Jakob Lothe in: American Studies in Scandinavia, Vol. 42, 4/ 2010
