Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This first history of prison literature, featuring the first extensive bibliography of works by American convicts, presents a revealing view of America as seen from the bottom. Franklin redefines American literature, its history, and literary criteria. Arguing that Afro-American culture is central rather than peripheral to our literature, Franklin traces the influence of slave songs and narratives from the convict work song through I am a Fugitive from a Georgia Chain Gang to the Autobiography of Malcolm X to the poetry of the Attica rebels. In addition to rediscovering dozens of first-rate unknown or forgotten authors, Franklin shows the impact of imprisonment on such major writers as Jack London, Chester Himes, Malcolm Braly, Julian Hawthorne, Agnes Smedley, and especially Herman Melville, whose fiction is given a striking reinterpretation. Here is a landmark work for anyone interested in American literature, Afro-American culture, Marxist theory, penology, and the relations between crime and art"--Jacket.

Download or read book Criminal Intimacy written by Regina G. Kunzel and published by . This book was released on 2008-09 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sex is usually assumed to be a closely guarded secret of prison life. But it has long been the subject of intense scrutiny by both prison administrators and reformers—as well as a source of fascination and anxiety for the American public. Historically, sex behind bars has evoked radically different responses from professionals and the public alike. In Criminal Intimacy, Regina Kunzel tracks these varying interpretations and reveals their foundational influence on modern thinking about sexuality and identity. Historians have held the fusion of sexual desire and identity to be the defining marker of sexual modernity, but sex behind bars, often involving otherwise heterosexual prisoners, calls those assumptions into question. By exploring the sexual lives of prisoners and the sexual culture of prisons over the past two centuries—along with the impact of a range of issues, including race, class, and gender; sexual violence; prisoners’ rights activism; and the HIV epidemic—Kunzel discovers a world whose surprising plurality and mutability reveals the fissures and fault lines beneath modern sexuality itself. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including physicians, psychiatrists, sociologists, correctional administrators, journalists, and prisoners themselves—as well as depictions of prison life in popular culture—Kunzel argues for the importance of the prison to the history of sexuality and for the centrality of ideas about sex and sexuality to the modern prison. In the process, she deepens and complicates our understanding of sexuality in America.
