Romantic Border Crossings participates in the important movement towards 'otherness' in Romanticism, by uncovering the intellectual and disciplinary anxieties that surround comparative studies of British, American, and European literature and culture. As this diverse group of essays demonstrates, we can now speak of a global Romanticism that encompasses emerging critical categories such as Romantic pedagogy, transatlantic studies, and transnationalism, with the result that 'new' works by writers marginalized by class, gender, race, or geography are invited into the canon at the same time that fresh readings of traditional texts emerge. Exemplifying these developments, the authors and topics examined include Elizabeth Inchbald, Lord Byron, Gérard de Nerval, English Jacobinism, Goethe, the Gothic, Orientalism, Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, Anglo-American conflicts, manifest destiny, and teaching romanticism. The collection constitutes a powerful rethinking of the divisions that continue to haunt Romantic studies.

Rashida halted momentarily before descending the steps of the aeroplane. "Another border to cross, Inshallah this is the final one", she thought, unaware that there were more borders to cross - culture, language and most importantly that of a heart walled within the emotional toughness of a man of the Australian Outback.Loneliness and heartache shadow Steven West, the owner of a prosperous cattle station in outback Queensland. Steven buries his emotions in the rough and tumble lifestyle of an Australian stockman by working alongside his station-hands. His manner is courteous and thoughtful, behaviour which might be mistaken by city women as indicative of a romantic interest, but those familiar with the outback culture recognise it as typical of an outback man, "comfortable in his own skin".His two small sons grieving for their mother are a handful for any governess he employs.Waiting with his sons behind the security fence for the passengers to disembark from the plane, Steven is thinking "Hope this one will stay - a refugee, she has had a tough time of it."The vulnerable beauty of the slightly built girl momentarily pausing at the top of the aeroplane steps caused a sudden quickening of his pulse which he immediately stilled, hauling the emotion back behind the shield that closed the border to his heart.Excerpt From Rashida's Story: " Rashida fled the massacre, hand in hand with her brother. "Inshallah!" - the very last word from her parents' lips. Mindful of their father's command to get to Australia they enter the dangerous world of the people smugglers. "Author's Background Knowledge:Being of Afghan heritage I have some knowledge of Afghanistan and its people in the pre-Taliban era. The Afghani characters are based on real people that I knew. Rashida's grandparents reflect the nature of my own relatives. Rashida and Rafi have them to thank for the liberal education and life that they (and I) enjoyed.Taking on a position as a governess in Outback Queensland, I, like Rashida had much to learn of life in the outback, the native animals and the general environment. Rashida's initial experiences of the outback plants and wildlife echo those of my own. The welcoming, altruist, tolerant, open and accepting temperament of the varied people of the outback and the courteous, thoughtful nature of the typical Australian bushman are fundamentals of the culture of the Australian Outback as I (and thus Rashida) experienced it.The photo of Rashida on the cover is that of my cousin - a true Afghan beauty.

What draws people to study abroad or volunteer in far-off communities? Often the answer is romance – the romance of landscapes, people, languages, the very sense of border-crossing – and longing for liberation, attraction to the unknown, yearning to make a difference. This volume explores the complicated and often fraught desires to study and volunteer abroad. In doing so, the book sheds light on how affect is managed by educators and mobilized by students and volunteers themselves, and how these structures of feeling relate to broader social and economic forces.

One love that isn’t enough. One love that is. And the choice that could ruin a family. It all started when I came back from a vacation with my mom. My best friend Ripley introduces me to her new friend Tyler, and I find out that he’s got a hot, straight brother, Grant. Sure, we date for a bit, but it turns out that he’s still holding a torch for a girl that he was seeing while he was in combat. We stay friends though, and then it happens to Tyler, and it’s almost too painful to watch. Worst part is, there’s nothing I can do to help him, except watch him fall. *** Frankie’s great. Yeah, but she’s not for me. She was cool when I broke it off, too. My brothers all hate it that I’m basically going back in time, trying to save something that they think is already dead and buried. But I’m not a sucker, and I don’t give up easily. What’s hard is how bad Tyler’s taking it. He’s my brother and my best friend, and he hates the woman I love. And then they’re all standing there, holding the bag, when I learn of the ultimate betrayal…and how she’s been lying to me since day one…again.

On a pier in Marseille in 1942, with desperate refugees pressing to board one of the last ships to escape France before the Nazis choked off its ports, an 18-year-old German Jewish girl was pried from the arms of the Catholic Frenchman she loved and promised to marry. As the Lipari carried Janine and her family to Casablanca on the first leg of a perilous journey to safety in Cuba, she would read through her tears the farewell letter that Roland had slipped in her pocket: “Whatever the length of our separation, our love will survive it, because it depends on us alone. I give you my vow that whatever the time we must wait, you will be my wife. Never forget, never doubt.” Five years later – her fierce desire to reunite with Roland first obstructed by war and then, in secret, by her father and brother – Janine would build a new life in New York with a dynamic American husband. That his obsession with Ayn Rand tormented their marriage was just one of the reasons she never ceased yearning to reclaim her lost love. Investigative reporter Leslie Maitland grew up enthralled by her mother’s accounts of forbidden romance and harrowing flight from the Nazis. Her book is both a journalist’s vivid depiction of a world at war and a daughter’s pursuit of a haunting question: what had become of the handsome Frenchman whose picture her mother continued to treasure almost fifty years after they parted? It is a tale of memory that reporting made real and a story of undying love that crosses the borders of time.
