Abstract

The Society of Early Americanists sponsored a summit of early Ibero- and Anglo-Americanists at the Westward Look Resort in Tucson, Arizona, on 16­18 May 2002. The innovative program, organized by program chair Ralph Bauer, explored the canons of American literature in 12 sessions in which Hispanists and Anglo-Americanists, as well as several scholars of Native American literature, participated. An exhilarating intellectual exercise, the summit promises to open up a more comparative study of the literatures of the western hemisphere. Early American Literature will publish in Vol. 38 a number of personal reflections upon the future of this initiative by summit participants. A summary review of the conference will also be supplied by Book Review Editor, Sandra Gustafson.
