A NIGHT'S IMPRISONMENT. NE of the chief charms which that eventful summer in the country possessed for me, was the anticipated pleasure of having as much of cousin Liz's society as I desired. Of all my relatives and playmates, she was the most beloved and the dearest. Grandma's openly expressed partiality induced her mother to permit her to spend a good deal of time at the Park, so that visits of several days' duration were frequent. Aunt Ann was her grandmother; though she was not so fond of cousin Liz as of another granddaughter, who was passing several months in her home. This cousin had been quite out of health for a considerable time past, and had been sent from the low country; her parents hoping that the fretful, irritable condition in which an attack of fever had left her, might be dispelled in a more healthful section. Cousin Liz and I had an avowed horror of Emma, and avoided her on every possible occasion. I fear we oftentimes persuaded her that our plays were too fatiguing for her participation, when really it was more a desire upon our part to pass the time uninterruptedly, than any anxiety we felt on her account. Aunt Ann was specially fond and proud of Emma; she being very pretty, and unusually bright. Her birthday occurring during this visit, she decided to celebrate the event by giving a party, to which all the children for miles around should be invited. Owing to the distances at which most of the intended guests resided, it was determined to ask them to arrive promptly at two o'clock, and remain until sundown; thus giving ample time for them to reach home in the early moonlight. Cousin Will and uncle Billie (aunt Ann's bachelor son), wrote the invitations, addressing their own first, as they declared they...

Download or read book Stories with a Moral written by Michael E. Price and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories with a Moral is the first comprehensive study of the effects of plantation society on literature and the influences of literature on social practices in nineteenth-century Georgia. During the years of frontier settlement, the Civil War, and Reconstruction, Georgia authors voiced their support for the slave system, the planter class, and the ideals of the Confederacy, presenting a humorous, passionate, and at times tragic view of a rapidly changing world. Michael E. Price examines works of fiction, travel accounts, diaries, and personal letters in this thorough survey of King Cotton's literary influence, showing how Georgia authors romanticized agrarian themes to present an appealing image of plantation economy and social structure. Stories with a Moral focuses on the importance of literature as a mode of ideological communication. Even more significant, the book shows how the writing of one century shaped the development of social practices and beliefs that persist, in legend and memory, to this day.

Download or read book Slavery Race in American Popular Culture written by William L. Van Deburg and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning more than three centuries, from the colonial era to the present, Van Deburg's overview analyzes the works of American historians, dramatists, novelists, poets, lyricists, and filmmakers -- and exposes, through those artists' often disquieting perceptions, the cultural underpinnings of American current racial attitudes and divisions. Crucial to Van Deburg's analysis is his contrast of black and white attitudes toward the Afro-American slave experience. There has, in fact, been a persistent dichotomy between the two races' literary, historical, and theatrical representations of slavery. If white culture-makers have stressed the "unmanning" of the slaves and encouraged such steteotypes as the Noble Savage and the comic minstrel to justify the blacks' subordination, Afro-Americans have emphasized a counter self-image that celebrates the slaves' creativity, dignity, pride, and assertiveness.
