Book The Views of Judge Woodward and Bishop Hopkins on Negro Slavery at the South

Download or read book The Views of Judge Woodward and Bishop Hopkins on Negro Slavery at the South written by Mrs. Frances Anne Kemble and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Views of Judge Woodward and Bishop Hopkins on Negro Slavery at the South: Illustrated From the Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation The Diary from which the following extracts are taken, was kept in the winter and spring of 1838-9, on an estate consisting of rice and cotton plantations, in the islands at the entrance of the Altamaha, on the coast of Georgia. The narrative is in the form of letters written by Frances Anne Kemble (then Mrs. Butler) to a friend in the North. The slaves in whom she then had an unfortunate interest, were sold some years ago. The islands themselves are at present in the power of the Northern troops. The record contained in the pages of her Journal is a picture of conditions of human existence which it is hoped and believed have passed away. If these few pages leave any one in doubt as to the moral, social, and political effects of Southern Slavery, he is referred to the Journal itself, as recently published. No argument will reach the man who is not convinced by this "remarkable revelation of the interior life of Slavery." The following narrative is divided into five chapters, under convenient titles, with head quotations from the extraordinary speech of Judge Woodward, and still more extraordinary letter of Bishop Hopkins, as published and distributed by the Democratic State Central Committee. These startling views of the Judge and the Bishop are best met by the record of Southern Slavery as it is, from the pen of a Christian woman, who had unusual means of observation, and every motive to soften her account of its barbarities.

Book The Unvarnished Truth

Download or read book The Unvarnished Truth written by Ann Fabian and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2000-01-03 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of selling one's tale of woe to make a buck has long been a part of American culture. The Unvarnished Truth: Personal Narratives in Nineteenth-Century America is a powerful cultural history of how ordinary Americans crafted and sold their stories of hardship and calamity during the nineteenth century. Ann Fabian examines the tales of beggars, convicts, ex-slaves, prisoners of the Confederacy, and others to explore cultural authority, truth-telling, and the nature of print media as the country was shifting to a market economy. This well-crafted book describes the fascinating controversies surrounding these little-read tales and returns them to the social worlds where they were produced. Drawing on an enormous number of personal narratives—accounts of mostly poor, suffering, and often uneducated Americans—The Unvarnished Truth analyzes a long-ignored tradition in popular literature. Historians have treated the spread of literacy and the growth of print culture as a chapter in the democratization of refinement, but these tales suggest that this was not always the case. Producing stories that purported to be the plain, unvarnished truth, poor men and women edged their way onto the cultural stage, using storytelling strategies far older than those relying on a Renaissance sense of refinement and polish. This book introduces a unique collection of tales to explore the nature of truth, authenticity, and representation.

  • Publisher : University of Virginia Press
  • Release : 1991
  • ISBN : 9780813913421
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book Neither Ballots Nor Bullets written by Wendy Hamand Venet and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This account of women's abolitionist activity during the Civil War offers new evidence of the extent of women's political activism and insightfully reveals the historical significance of this activism. Through the Woman's National Loyal League, women were introduced into the political sphere from which they had previously been barred. The work of women such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony opened new avenues for feminist activism after the war. In her analysis Wendy Hamand Venet examines how the rift in the league influenced the feminist movement positively by impelling its leaders to distinguish their cause from other political concerns and place it in the spotlight.

Book The Old Faith in a New Nation

Download or read book The Old Faith in a New Nation written by Paul J. Gutacker and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional wisdom holds that tradition and history meant little to nineteenth-century American Protestants, who relied on common sense and "the Bible alone." The Old Faith in a New Nation challenges this portrayal by recovering evangelical engagement with the Christian past. Even when they appeared to be most scornful toward tradition, most optimistic and forward-looking, and most confident in their grasp of the Bible, evangelicals found themselves returning, time and again, to Christian history. They studied religious historiography, reinterpreted the history of the church, and argued over its implications for the present. Between the Revolution and the Civil War, American Protestants were deeply interested in the meaning of the Christian past. Paul J. Gutacker draws from hundreds of print sources-sermons, books, speeches, legal arguments, political petitions, and more-to show how ordinary educated Americans remembered and used Christian history. While claiming to rely on the Bible alone, antebellum Protestants frequently turned to the Christian past on questions of import: how should the government relate to religion? Could Catholic immigrants become true Americans? What opportunities and rights should be available to women? To African Americans? Protestants across denominations answered these questions not only with the Bible but also with history. By recovering the ways in which American evangelicals remembered and used Christian history, The Old Faith in a New Nation shows how religious memory shaped the nation and interrogates the meaning of "biblicism."

Book Nineteenth Century Transatlantic Reprinting and the Embodied Book

Download or read book Nineteenth Century Transatlantic Reprinting and the Embodied Book written by Jessica DeSpain and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the Chace Act in 1891, no international copyright law existed between Britain and the United States, which meant publishers were free to edit text, excerpt whole passages, add new illustrations, and substantially redesign a book's appearance. In spite of this ongoing process of transatlantic transformation of texts, the metaphor of the book as a physical embodiment of its author persisted. Jessica DeSpain's study of this period of textual instability examines how the physical book acted as a major form of cultural exchange between Britain and the United States that called attention to volatile texts and the identities they manifested. Focusing on four influential works”Charles Dickens's American Notes for General Circulation, Susan Warner's The Wide, Wide World, Fanny Kemble's Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation, and Walt Whitman's Democratic Vistas”DeSpain shows that for authors, readers, and publishers struggling with the unpredictability of the textual body, the physical book and the physical body became interchangeable metaphors of flux. At the same time, discourses of destabilized bodies inflected issues essential to transatlantic culture, including class, gender, religion, and slavery, while the practice of reprinting challenged the concepts of individual identity, personal property, and national identity.
