Book Ambivalent Nation

    Book Details:
  • Author : Hugh Dubrulle
  • Publisher : LSU Press
  • Release : 2018-06-11
  • ISBN : 0807168815
  • Pages : 352 pages

Download or read book Ambivalent Nation written by Hugh Dubrulle and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ambivalent Nation, Hugh Dubrulle explores how Britons envisioned the American Civil War and how these conceptions influenced their discussions about race, politics, society, military affairs, and nationalism. Contributing new research that expands upon previous scholarship focused on establishing British public opinion toward the war, Dubrulle offers a methodical dissection of the ideological forces that shaped that opinion, many of which arose from the complex Anglo-American postcolonial relationship. Britain’s lingering feeling of ownership over its former colony contributed heavily to its discussions of the American Civil War. Because Britain continued to have a substantial material interest in the United States, its writers maintained a position of superiority and authority in respect to American affairs. British commentators tended to see the United States as divided by two distinct civilizations, even before the onset of war: a Yankee bourgeois democracy and a southern oligarchy supported by slavery. They invariably articulated mixed feelings toward both sections, and shortly before the Civil War, the expression of these feelings was magnified by the sudden emergence of inexpensive newspapers, periodicals, and books. The conflicted nature of British attitudes toward the United States during the antebellum years anticipates the ambivalence with which the British reacted to the American crisis in 1861. Britons used prewar stereotypes of northerners and southerners to help explain the course and significance of the conflict. Seen in this fashion, the war seemed particularly relevant to a number of questions that occupied British conversations during this period: the characteristics and capacities of people of African descent, the proper role of democracy in society and politics, the future of armed conflict, and the composition of a durable nation. These questions helped shape Britain’s stance toward the war and, in turn, the war informed British attitudes on these subjects. Dubrulle draws from numerous primary sources to explore the rhetoric and beliefs of British public figures during these years, including government papers, manuscripts from press archives, private correspondence, and samplings from a variety of dailies, weeklies, monthlies, and quarterlies. The first book to examine closely the forces that shaped British public opinion about the Civil War, Ambivalent Nation contextualizes and expands our understanding of British attitudes during this tumultuous period.

Book The Glittering Illusion

Download or read book The Glittering Illusion written by Sheldon Vanauken and published by Gateway Editions. This book was released on 1989 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mr. Sheldon Vanauken has shown a singular consistency in pursuing an idea that was originally the subject of his graduate research at Oxford University to its presentation in this volume. Mr. Vanauken believes -- and there is a good deal of evidence to support him -- that English sympathies during the American Civil War were largely on the Southern side of the conflict. British intervention would have secured a Southern victory which might have suited British commercial interests and British conceptions of the balance of power and put an end to American hopes of annexing Canada. Support for the South would have conformed to the general British disposition to give credence to struggles for national self-determination. Why then, did Britain not intervene as at one moment she seemed on the point of doing? Mr. Sheldon Vanauken dismisses the view that British anti-slavery sentiment and hence popular support for the Northern cause was the root of the matter and plumps for what he calls the 'glittering illusion' namely the belief that Southern military skills, and in particular the generalship of Robert E. Lee, were thought to make a Southern defeat unthinkable, so that the South could win its independence without the foreign assistance that the American colonies had enjoyed in winning their independence from the British Empire in the war of the American Revolution. It is an interesting idea and one that challenges many accepted beliefs. Interesting also are Mr. Vanauken's subsequent speculations on what would have happened if the South had actually won and as he believes would have followed had freed its slaves of its own violation"--Preliminary page.
