American Studies Today: Traversing Middle Grounds.
Response to Marius Jucan


MADELEINE DANOVA
Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski”


Abstract
With Marius Jucan’s contribution to this issue in view, but moving away from rather than engaging with it, this paper briefly describes recent critical approaches which seem to overcome or go beyond the perceived crisis of American Studies while fulfilling the field’s early ambitions in some respects. Ethnocriticism from the 1990s and Marcus and Soller’s recent literary history (2009) are discussed.

Keywords: American Studies, ethnocriticism, literary history, plurality, academic discipline
