Approaching SeaChanges brings together renowned and emerging critical voices to respond to the issues raised by a multi-disciplinary research project that investigates questions of identity, human rights, cosmopolitics, and glocal tensions from a circumatlantic perspective. The contributors move from narratives of the slave trade to today’s concerns for global conflict and terrorism, from fictional stories of migration and (in)hospitality to the transatlantic travels of intellectuals and ideas, from African cinema to postcolonial theory, historiography and archaeology. Together, they offer a plurality of voices and histories, and seek to explore the diverse cultures that have shaped and are shaping our world through the connecting flows of Atlantic waters.

Abstract
Approaching SeaChanges brings together renowned and emerging critical voices to respond to the issues raised by a multi-disciplinary research project that investigates questions of identity, human rights, cosmopolitics, and glocal tensions from a circumatlantic perspective. The contributors move from narratives of the slave trade to today’s concerns for global conflict and terrorism, from fictional stories of migration and (in)hospitality to the transatlantic travels of intellectuals and ideas, from African cinema to postcolonial theory, historiography and archaeology. Together, they offer a plurality of voices and histories, and seek to explore the diverse cultures that have shaped and are shaping our world through the connecting flows of Atlantic waters.Pubblicazioni consigliate
