Abstract
The increasing scholarly interaction and exchanges in international literary journalism studies have deepened our understanding of international connections and mediations while adding to our knowledge of the specificity of American literary journalism studies. My purpose here is to interrogate and expand some of the current conceptions, definitions, epistemologies, and critical directions of American literary journalism studies. In doing so, I will also examine several of the challenges such an expansion entails and what I see as some of the goals to work towards. My discussion will close by focusing on the intended impact of such changes for international literary journalism studies.
