What does it mean when a male character's movements resemble both a privileged kind of wandering and queerly suggestive cruising? Or when a male protagonist's sexual magnetism becomes a force for both social disorder and imperialist expansion? In this analysis of works by five British and American authors, Daniel Hannah examines how masculine mobility--and often specifically transatlantic mobility--both enacts and queerly disorients male privilege, even as that same mobility works as a kind of unstable master trope behind the restless experimentation of modernist fiction. Where the "new modernist studies" has sought to diversify the canon, Queer Atlantic addresses established writers (Melville, Stevenson, James, Conrad, and Ford), arguing for the significance of anxieties about white, masculine privilege and queer potential to their broadening of the novel's formal possibilities. Hannah places these writers in the context of their responses to debates about naval impressment, piracy, emigration, colonization, and the "new imperialism." In the process, he also raises significant questions about the current field of queer ethics, highlighting the strange companionship of queer openness to otherness and imperialist thought for modernist writing. Turning, in its final pages, to examine the surprising resilience of such fictional structures for a more diverse set of American writers after World War One, Queer Atlantic opens out a new understanding of modernism's emergence from a troubling of masculine privilege, mobility, and desire."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 207-219) and index. 505 0 $a Impressed into service: mobilizing desire in Herman Melville's 'Billy Budd, Sailor' -- Queer wanderings: transatlantic piracy and narrative seduction in Robert Louis Stevenson's 'The Master of Ballantrae' -- "A question of an 'Imperium'": queer imperialisms in Heny James's 'The Golden Bowl' - A tale of the seaboard: erotic geographies and interstitial masculinities in Joseph Conrad's 'Nostromo' -- "Those queer effects of real life: impressionism, desire, and the transatlantic in Ford Madox Ford's 'The Good Soldier' -- Conclusion: queer Atlantic modernism. 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Masculinity in literature. 650 0 $a Homosexuality in literature. 650 0 $a Gay men in literature. 650 0 $a Desire in literature. 650 0 $a Imperialism in literature. 650 0 $a Comparative literature $x American and English. 650 0 $a Comparative literature $x English and American. 650 0 $a American literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a English literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a American literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807113 650 7 $a Comparative literature $x American and English $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01750842 650 7 $a Comparative literature $x English and American $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01750845 650 7 $a Desire in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00891364 650 7 $a English literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00911989 650 7 $a Gay men in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00939161 650 7 $a Homosexuality in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00959825 650 7 $a Imperialism in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00968142 650 7 $a Masculinity in literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01011040 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Online version: $a Hannah, Daniel. $t Queer Atlantic. $d Montreal ; Kingston ; London ; Chicago : McGill-Queen's University Press, 2021 $z 9780228006039 $z 9780228006039 $w (OCoLC)1195707975 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117025747.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DA51DEA2EE0211ECABFB385646ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
