Transpacific Imaginations Is A Study Of How American Literature Is Enmeshed With The Literatures Of Asia. The Book Begins With Western Encounters With The Pacific: Yunte Huang Reads Moby Dick As A Pacific Work, Looks At Henry Adamss Not Talking About His Travels In Japan And The Pacific Basin In His Autobiography, And Compares Mark Twain To Liang Qichao. Huang Then Turns To Asian American Encounters With The Pacific, Concentrating On The 'Angel Island' Poems And On Works By Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Lawson Fusao Inada, And Araki Yasusada.Huangs Argument That The Pacific Forms American Literature More Than Is Generally Acknowledged Is A Major Contribution To Our Understanding Of Literary History. The Book Is In Dialogue With Crosscultural Studies Of The Pacific And With Contemporary Innovative Poetics. Huang Has Found A Vehicle To Join Asians And Westerners At The Deepest Level, And That Vehicle Is Poetry. Poets Can Best Imagine An Ethical Ground Upon Which Different People Join Hands. Huang Asks Us To Contribute To This Effort By Understanding The Poets And Writers Already In The Process Of Linking Diverse Peoples.
