“For individuals involved in American Studies inquiry, (I would urge) the idea of the ‘cultural journey’. In capsule form, that journey would look something like this: a) focusing in on an experience in the culture b) identifying the various fields surrounding that experience c) learning the distinctive forms or expressive media of each field d) connecting the fields to one another and e) trying not to be too assured that when one has it all done, one in fact has is all done.”
--Gene Wise, “Axioms for American Studies.” 1979
