The Memory of Architecture in Edith Wharton’s Travel Writings
It focuses on Wharton’s symbolic representations of architecture in her travel writings. It shows how allusions to travel writing and art history influenced her representations of spaces. How the shock of the Great War changed Wharton’s travel destinations but not her symbolic view of architecture as a mediator of the past.

Pastoral Cosmopolitanism in Edith Wharton’s Fiction
The World is a WelterOne of the goals of this book is to demonstrate that while the pastoral seems to portray troubling fractures between the social self and native soil, Wharton is more struck by how these ostensibly divergent cultural categories superimpose and interpenetrate to form an ecocritical palimpsest.

Edith Wharton's Writings from the Great War
“Until Julie Olin-Ammentorp’s book, Edith Wharton’s Writings from the Great War, was published, no full length study of these works had appeared. Her book is likely to become the definitive treatment of them. It is hard to imagine anyone surpassing her work in mastery of the subject.”—Edith Wharton Review “An important and long-overdue study of Wharton’s war works. One emerges from Edith Wharton’s Writings from the Great War with a clearer and more captivating vision of Wharton’s creative imagination as well as the culture that she so longed to preserve.”—Modern Fiction Studies “Wharton critics . . . will find a whole new ground for further studies in this book; but it is also, much more broadly, a significant and interesting study of a woman writer’s life-long engagement with the war. . . . This is, in the most literal sense, an inviting, inspiring, and ground-breaking book.”—American Literary Realism “Particularly compelling is the case Olin-Ammentorp makes for the value of women’s war-related writings, which she calls ‘the homefront novel’ and which she believes Wharton helped to create.”—Journal of Interdisciplinary Feminist Thought

Edith Wharton and Cosmopolitanism
“An important and timely work that insists on new connections not only within Wharton’s oeuvre but also with a range of international texts and contexts. The collection demands that we view Wharton as seriously engaged with the theorization of national and international identity (and responsibility) in the period during which she was writing—questions that we are still grappling with today.”—Edith Wharton Review “Establish[es] the importance of seeing Wharton’s writing through cosmopolitanism and through the linked frameworks of race and nation.”—American Literary Realism “Embark[s] on a project that is both productively reparative and excitingly innovative. . . . It provides a foundational contribution to future conversations about race and otherness in early twentieth-century American fiction.”—Studies in American Naturalism
