Book Henry Christophe Thomas Clarkson

Download or read book Henry Christophe Thomas Clarkson written by Henri Christophe (King of Haiti) and published by . This book was released on 1952 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British Museum possesses a large collection of manuscripts preserved by Thomas Clarkson the British Abolitionist. Among them are to be found is Haitian papers consisting of his correspondence with Henry Christophe, the king of Haiti as well as other letters and documents pertinent to Haitian affairs. Because much of the correspondence with Christophe was of an official nature, Clarkson considered it of the utmost importance and carefully preserved not only the letters he received form Haiti, but also copies of many of his replies. In great measure, therefore, both sides of the correspondence are still intact. This material forms a valuable commentary of the obscure history of Haiti, and it tends to modify the interpretations which legend and fiction have woven around the personality and activities of Christophe. -- Provided by publisher

Book Race and U S Foreign Policy in the Ages of Territorial and Market Expansion 1840 1900

Download or read book Race and U S Foreign Policy in the Ages of Territorial and Market Expansion 1840 1900 written by E. Nathaniel Gates and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-05 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1998. Explores the concept of "race" The term "race," which originally denoted genealogical or class identity, has in the comparatively brief span of 300 years taken on an entirely new meaning. In the wake of the Enlightenment it came to be applied to social groups. This ideological transformation coupled with a dogmatic insistence that the groups so designated were natural, and not socially created, gave birth to the modern notion of "races" as genetically distinct entities. The results of this view were the encoding of "race" and "racial" hierarchies in law, literature, and culture. How "racial" categories facilitate social control The articles in the series demonstrate that the classification of humans according to selected physical characteristics was an arbitrary decision that was not based on valid scientific method. They also examine the impact of colonialism on the propagation of the concept and note that "racial" categorization is a powerful social force that is often used to promote the interests of dominant social groups. Finally, the collection surveys how laws based on "race" have been enacted around the world to deny power to minority groups. A multidisciplinary resource This collection of outstanding articles brings multiple perspectives to bear on race theory and draws on a wider ranger of periodicals than even the largest library usually holds. Even if all the articles were available on campus, chances are that a student would have to track them down in several libraries and microfilm collections. Providing, of course, that no journals were reserved for graduate students, out for binding, or simply missing. This convenient set saves students substantial time and effort by making available all the key articles in one reliable source. Authoritative commentary The series editor has put together a balanced selection of the most significant works, accompanied by expert commentary. A general introduction gives important background information and outlines fundamental issues, current scholarship, and scholarly controversies. Introductions to individual volumes put the articles in context and draw attention to germinal ideas and major shifts in the field. After reading the material, even a beginning student will have an excellent grasp of the basics of the subject.
