This collection of essays attempts to expand the notion of the ???Black Atlantic??? beyond its original racial, geographical, linguistic and cultural borders while acknowledging its remarkable ability to disturb established historical truths and to go beyond traditional dichotomies, thereby providing an essential tool for cross-cultural understanding.

Finally, ???Dialogues??? engages with the ???Black Atlantic??? from the perspectives of two creative writers whose work includes transatlantic themes and characters.
