Session Description:
This roundtable will focus on the object(s) of early American studies today. Scholars will offer opening statements focusing on some text, material artifact, Web site, journal, or other item that, to the panelist, constitutes a worthy object of study—something that broadens (or narrows), unsettles (or reaffirms) our sense of what our field means, has meant, or might mean.
Subject:
