The scholars included in this collection sought to indicate more contemporary working definitions for the expression "American Dream", or rather Dreams. The multidisciplinary selections come from many countries and represent scholars from different backgrounds. They reflect the current developments and approaches in the field of US Studies and we hope to help broaden the scope of programs in higher education institutions. The chapters are thematically organized in two sections: “Initial Dialogues” and “Comparative Dialogues.” The first one comprises essays that set the foundations for our discussions and intends to familiarize newcomers with the theme.

Esta obra reúne um conjunto de textos, resultantes das comunicações apresentadas no colóquio comemorativo dos 600 anos da criação da Província de Portugal da Ordem dos Pregadores (Dominicanos), que decorreu no Palácio Fronteira e no Convento de São Domingos em Lisboa. Dito colóquio, pela sua dimensão – não só em termos de número de conferências, mas principalmente na multiplicidade de áreas temáticas abrangidas (História, Arte, Literatura, Espiritualidade, Teologia, Missionação, Pedagogia, Semiótica) – destacou a presença dominicana e os rastos deixados por esta em Portugal e no mundo. Conferencistas de diversas universidades do país e do estrangeiro, de diferentes centros de investigação e academias, apresentam abordagens distintas, linhas de investigação recentes e em aberto, com dados inéditos e novas problemáticas.
