Download or read book The Southern Hospitality Myth written by Anthony Szczesiul and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hospitality as a cultural trait has been associated with the South for well over two centuries, but the origins of this association and the reasons for its perseverance often seem unclear. Anthony Szczesiul looks at how and why we have taken something so particular as the social habit of hospitality—which is exercised among diverse individuals and is widely varied in its particular practices—and so generalized it as to make it a cultural trait of an entire region of the country. Historians have offered a variety of explanations of the origins and cultural practices of hospitality in the antebellum South. Economic historians have at times portrayed southern hospitality as evidence of conspicuous consumption and competition among wealthy planters, while cultural historians have treated it peripherally as a symptomatic expression of the southern code of honor. Although historians have offered different theories, they generally agree that the mythic dimensions of southern hospitality eventually outstripped its actual practices. Szczesiul examines why we have chosen to remember and valorize this particular aspect of the South, and he raises fundamental ethical questions that underlie both the concept of hospitality and the cultural work of American memory, particularly in light of the region’s historical legacy of slavery and segregation.

Download or read book Thomasville written by William R. Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas County and its county seat of Thomasville share a history that is surprising and unique and punctuated with ironies large and small. Deep in rural southwest Georgia and only fifty miles from the Gulf of Mexico, Thomasville seems almost typical--an attractive southern town with a dignified, well-designed courthouse. Trains pull slowly past the pleasant, brick-paved streets of a nineteenth-century downtown, and tree-shaded neighborhoods gradually give way to a rolling, red-hill countryside of pine forests broken here and there by well-tended fields of cotton, peanuts, and soybeans. Look a bit closer, however, and one will discover a truly remarkable place--a stunning visual landscape, both natural and man-made, historically populated by a cast of clever and industrious local citizens symbiotically collaborating with wealthy and influential northerners who came south for a visit and stayed for generations. Thomasville and Thomas County have flourished by successfully adapting to whatever challenges lay before them. Through the efforts of the Thomas County Historical Society and Thomasville Landmarks, Thomasville has become recognized as a leader in state and national preservation efforts. Successes are evidenced not only by signature standards such as the architecturally significant Lapham-Patterson House but also by increasing affordable and attractive housing in lowerprofile neighborhood renovations. Thomasville: Unique History, Elegant Homes, and Southern Hospitality is a testament to the collective hard work and determination of a great southern city's will to survive and flourish for generations.
