The TSA is an international community of scholars with a shared interest in all aspects of the Atlantic world.\u00a0 Not just the Anglo-US paradigm, but also Latin and South America and African history.\u00a0 It encompasses history in all its forms – not just political and diplomatic – but cultural and global. <\/span>The TSA also has a very strong tradition of work on transatlantic literature, music, popular culture etc.\u00a0 Indeed, anything that can be said to have relevance to the transatlantic world. Find out more here: <\/span>Transatlantic Studies\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

This event is sure to be a fantastic opportunity to showcase the work of the <\/span>School of History<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>English<\/span><\/a> in particular.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PhD students:<\/b> The TSA awards an annual thesis prize and other bursaries.\u00a0 The TSA has its own journal, the <\/span>Journal of Transatlantic Studies<\/span><\/i>, on which\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Gaynor Johnson<\/span><\/a> sits on the editorial board.\u00a0 It is a properly peer reviewed journal but we particularly welcome submissions from students who have given a good paper at the conference and who might want to get their work published.<\/span><\/p>\n
