  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.

Polite Shakespeare Only: Teaching Chican@ Texts and The Tempest in Texas after the Attempts to Dismantle Mexican American Studies Programs Britt Haraway This pedagogical essay confronts the efforts in Texas to dismantle or defund Mexican American Studies programs, and it argues against current political education platforms that call for a decreased emphasis of critical thinking. This article instead calls for an increased critical engagement with history using texts such as Shakespeare’s The Tempest (recently removed from Arizona’s MAS programs) in conjunction with Anzaldúa’s Borderlands/La Frontera and Alurista’s Plan Espiritual de Aztlán.

  • TEACHING AMERICAN REALISM in GERMANY: Supplement – Additional Notes and Materials …………………………………………………………………
    Main Article: The Oxford Handbook of American Literary Realism , ed. Keith Newlin (New York: Oxford UP, 2019), 621–47 [electronic version: oxfordhandbooks.com]. Abstract: Starting with a critical introduction to the problematic beginnings and US-supported rise of American studies in pre– and post–WWII Germany, this chapter looks at the teaching of American realism and its development in a nation strongly influenced by US culture. Based on archival research, a statistical evaluation of annual bulletins, and information collected from fifty practitioners, the chap- ter offers the first quantitative and thematic analysis of course offerings at German universities (1953– 2016), the first comparison of the relative importance of American realist literature in German univer- sity courses and research publications from German-speaking countries (2000–2015), and the first survey of German Americanists on methods and experiences of teaching US realism and naturalism in the Federal Republic (2017). The chapter concludes by calling for new didactic approaches to illus- trate the continuing relevance of writers active in the core period of the realist tradition.
