The Cambridge Companion to Romanticism and World Literature
The archive of Romantic studies is every day expanding far beyond its Anglo-European confines, incorporating an ever-volatile constellation of works that, like World Literature, understands itself not in any monolithically Western sense but instead as a rhizomatic, polycentric expansion of temporalities, histories, and cultures. Here, a diverse cast of expert scholars reflect on how key concepts in Romantic literary and philosophical writings – p…

La precariedad salarial en la industria automotriz en México. Brechas pendientes ante la nueva gobernanza laboral del T-MEC
Ante la posibilidad de que una empresa automotriz instalada en México pueda ser acusada de dumping social si no respeta las reglas del T-MEC y las normas internas en materia de libertad sindical y negociación, que exigen la representatividad de los sindicatos y el apoyo de los trabajadores a la contratación colectiva, podría esperarse que las negociaciones futuras establezcan criterios explícitos encaminados a la recuperación salarial. En este co…

England Re-Oriented
What does the love between British imperialists and their Asian male partners reveal about orientalism's social origins? To answer this question, Humberto Garcia focuses on westward-bound Central and South Asian travel writers who have long been forgotten or dismissed by scholars. This bias has obscured how Joseph Emin, Sake Dean Mahomet, Shaykh I'tesamuddin, Abu Talib Khan, Abul Hassan Khan, Yusuf Khan Kambalposh, and Lutfullah Khan found in the…

Alexander Bevilacqua. The Republic of Arabic Letters
The last decade has witnessed an upsurge in a kind of post-orientalist scholarship that has disaggregated early modern representations of Islam from later European empire building and resituated these representations in other sociopolitical and institutional formations. Alexander Bevilacqua furthers this trend in his deft intellectual history The Republic of Arabic Letters: Islam and the European Enlightenment. This so-called “Republic of Arabic …
Introduction
In this introduction to the first installment of the Common Knowledge symposium on xenophilia, the editor explains the rationale of the new project, citing increases in aggressive xenophobia internationally. He comments on the intergroup-relations theorist Todd Pittinsky's argument that, since tolerance is not logically the antithesis of negative feelings toward out-groups, even long-established traditions of toleration are inadequate to prevent …
A Stranger's Love for Ireland
A contribution to the Common Knowledge symposium on xenophilia, this article examines the travelogue of Mirza Abu Taleb ibn Muhammed Isfahani (1752-1805), the Muslim Indo-Persian scholar, poet, and Lucknow nobleman who sympathized with the Irish during his travels to England and Ireland in 1799-1802. Translated from Persian to English by an Irish scholar working for the British East India Company, Charles Stewart, and published in London in two e…
Islam and the English Enlightenment, 1670–1840
A corrective addendum to Edward Said's Orientalism, this book examines how sympathetic representations of Islam contributed significantly to Protestant Britain's national and imperial identity in the eighteenth century. Taking a historical view, Humberto Garcia combines a rereading of eighteenth-century and Romantic-era British literature with original research on Anglo-Islamic relations. He finds that far from being considered foreign by the era…
