Download or read book Cultures of Darkness written by Bryan D. Palmer and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peasants, religious heretics, witches, pirates, runaway slaves, prostitutes and pornographers, frequenters of taverns and fraternal society lodge rooms, revolutionaries, blues and jazz musicians, beats, and contemporary youth gangs--those who defied authority, choosing to live outside the defining cultural dominions of early insurgent and, later, dominant capitalism are what Bryan D. Palmer calls people of the night. These lives of opposition, or otherness, were seen by the powerful as deviant, rejecting authority, and consequently threatening to the established order. Constructing a rich historical tapestry of example and experience spanning eight centuries, Palmer details lives of exclusion and challenge, as the "night travels" of the transgressors clash repeatedly with the powerful conventions of their times. Nights of liberation and exhilarating desire--sexual and social--are at the heart of this study. But so too are the dangers of darkness, as marginality is coerced into corners of pressured confinement, or the night is used as a cover for brutalizing terror, as was the case in Nazi Germany or the lynching of African Americans. Making extensive use of the interdisciplinary literature of marginality found in scholarly work in history, sociology, cultural studies, literature, anthropology, and politics, Palmer takes an unflinching look at the rise and transformation of capitalism as it was lived by the dispossessed and those stamped with the mark of otherness.

Book Romanticism  History  Historicism

Download or read book Romanticism History Historicism written by Damian Walford Davies and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-01-21 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "(re)turn to history" in Romantic Studies in the 1980s marked the beginning of a critical orthodoxy that continues to condition, if not define, our sense of the Romantic period twenty-five years on. Romantic New Historicism’s revisionary engagements have played a central role in the realignment of the field and in the expansion of the Romantic canon. In this major new collection of eleven essays, critics reflect on New Historicism’s inheritance, its achievements and its limitations. Integrating a self-reflexive engagement with New Historicism’s "history" and detailed attention to a range of Romantic lives and literary texts, the collection offers a close-up view of Romanticism’s hybrid present, and a dynamic vision of its future.

Excerpt: ...to fix a place of meeting in such case. On Wednesday, the 4th December, being the fourteenth sitting, apprehensions were uttered of the probability of a violent dispersion of the Convention, and the delegates resolved to continue to assemble, "until compelled to desist by superior force." The next day Margarot and others were arrested, and their papers seized; notwithstanding which, the Convention met again on the Friday at some other place as appointed. But they had not been long assembled before the sheriff appeared. The meeting still refused to disperse, without some display of force. Margarot, who had been bailed, and was presiding on the occasion, was then pulled out of the chair; Gerrald closed the meeting with prayer; the rest of the company departed peaceably; and the British Convention was at an end. It soon became clear that the London Corresponding Society was the principal object of ministerial rancour. The three persons selected for "punishment" were Margarot and Gerrald, the delegates of that society, and William Skirving, Secretary to the Convention. They were all tried, and sentenced to fourteen years' transportation, the judges considering that their crime was aggravated by their not having taken warning from the fate of Messrs. Muir and Palmer. Margarot was brought to trial upon the 13th January, 1794. He made a fruitless endeavour to show that there was no jurisdiction in the Court of Justiciary to try him for his supposed offence, which was "a determined purpose to overturn the constitution." A certain amount of mock courtesy was allowed toward him as a "foreigner," a "stranger from London," &c.; but there was no relaxation of severity on that account on the part of...
