Who Owns the Sky? The Struggle to Control Airspace from the Wright Brothers On
A collection of curious tales questioning the ownership of airspace and a reconstruction of a truly novel moment in the history of American law, Banner’s book reminds us of the powerful and reciprocal relationship between technological innovation and the law.
Spanish-American Literature
With a focus both historical and literary, Enrique Anderson-Imbert surveys the literature of Hispanic America. His study is not merely an historical synthesis of names, titles, and dates; it is, rather, a critical analytical appraisal of the verse, prose, and drama written in Spanish in the Americas in the contemporary period.
The Cultural Geography of Colonial American Literatures
Ralph Bauer presents a comparative investigation of colonial prose narratives in Spanish and British America from 1542 to 1800. He discusses narratives of shipwreck, captivity, and travel, as well as imperial and natural histories of the New World in the context of transformative early modern scientific ideologies. Bauer positions the narrative models promoted by the 'New Sciences' during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries within the context of the geopolitical question of how knowledge can be centrally controlled in outwardly expanding empires.
