Download or read book Tales from the Haunted South written by Tiya Miles and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2015-08-12 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Tiya Miles explores the popular yet troubling phenomenon of "ghost tours," frequently promoted and experienced at plantations, urban manor homes, and cemeteries throughout the South. As a staple of the tours, guides entertain paying customers by routinely relying on stories of enslaved black specters. But who are these ghosts? Examining popular sites and stories from these tours, Miles shows that haunted tales routinely appropriate and skew African American history to produce representations of slavery for commercial gain. "Dark tourism" often highlights the most sensationalist and macabre aspects of slavery, from salacious sexual ties between white masters and black women slaves to the physical abuse and torture of black bodies to the supposedly exotic nature of African spiritual practices. Because the realities of slavery are largely absent from these tours, Miles reveals how they continue to feed problematic "Old South" narratives and erase the hard truths of the Civil War era. In an incisive and engaging work, Miles uses these troubling cases to shine light on how we feel about the Civil War and race, and how the ghosts of the past are still with us.

Download or read book Haunted Landscapes written by Ruth Heholt and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-11-17 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haunted Landscapes offers a fresh and innovative approach to contemporary debates about landscape and the supernatural. Landscapes are often uncanny spaces embroiled in the past; associated with absence, memory and nostalgia. Yet experiences of haunting must in some way always belong to the present: they must be felt. This collection of essays opens up new and compelling areas of debate around the concepts of haunting, affect and landscape. Landscape studies, supernatural studies, haunting and memory are all rapidly growing fields of enquiry and this book synthesises ideas from several critical approaches – spectral, affective and spatial – to provide a new route into these subjects. Examining urban and rural landscapes, haunted domestic spaces, landscapes of trauma, and borderlands, this collection of essays is designed to cross disciplines and combine seemingly disparate academic approaches under the coherent locus of landscape and haunting. Presenting a timely intervention in some of the most pressing scholarly debates of our time, Haunted Landscapes offers an attractive array of essays that cover topics from Victorian times to the present.

Download or read book Haunted Hardy written by Tim Armstrong and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his poetry, Thomas Hardy describes himself as posthumous, as rekindling the cinders of passion, as the guardian of the dead forgotten by history and as haunted by ghosts, particularly the spectre of the lost child (as in the rumour that he fathered a child in the 1860s). Using Derrida, Abraham and Torok and other theorists, and referring to Victorian debates on materialism, this book investigates ghostliness, historicity and memory in Hardy's poetry.

Download or read book Rhetorics Haunting the National Mall written by Roger C. Aden and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-09-15 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rhetorics Haunting the National Mall: Displaced and Ephemeral Public Memories vividly illustrates that a nation’s history is more complicated than the simple binary of remembered/forgotten. Some parts of history, while not formally recognized within a commemorative landscape, haunt those landscapes by virtue of their ephemeral or displaced presence. Rather than being discretely contained within a formal sites, these memories remain public by lingering along the edges and within the crevices of commemorative landscapes. By integrating theories of haunting, place, and public memory, this collection demonstrates that the National Mall, often referred to as “the nation’s front yard,” might better be understood as “the nation’s attic” because it hides those issues we do not want to address but cannot dismiss. The neatly ordered installations and landscaping of the National Mall, if one looks and listens closely, reveal the messiness of US history. From the ephemeral memories of protests on the Mall to the displaced but persistent presences of inequality, each chapter in this book examines the ways in which contemporary public life in the US is haunted by incomplete efforts to close the book on the past.
Download or read book Haunted Naperville written by Diane A. Ladley and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Established in 1831, Naperville is one of the oldest settlements in the Greater Chicago area. The city's rich and fascinating heritage has been carefully passed down from one proud generation to the next; however, nowhere has Naperville's ghostly oral tradition and haunted history been preserved until now. Most of Naperville's unique legends--compiled for the fi rst time ever in these pages--arose from accounts of actual historic events and from the lives of notable personages in the city's long history. As the tragic events and persons faded from living memory, all that might remain of them would be ghost stories whispered by fi relight and, later, by fl ashlight tucked under a teenager's chin at slumber parties. Some eerie legends in these pages have origins that are lost in time, and still other hair-raising ghost stories included in this work are chilling contemporary, firsthand accounts of paranormal encounters within Naperville's sprawling boundaries . . . perhaps from even just down the street.

Download or read book Post Conflict Hauntings written by Kim Wale and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-02 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book engages the globally pressing question of how to live and work with the haunting power of the past in the aftermath of mass violence. It brings together a collection of interdisciplinary contributions to reflect on the haunting of post-conflict memory from the perspective of diverse country case studies including South Africa, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Northern Ireland, North and South Korea, Palestine and Israel, America and Australia. Contributions offer theoretical, empirical and practical insights on the nature of historical trauma and practices of collective healing and repair that include embodied, artistic and culturally relevant forms of wisdom for dealing with the past. While this question has traditionally been explored through the lens of trauma studies in relation to the post-Holocaust experience, this book provides new understandings from a variety of different historical contexts and disciplinary perspectives. Its chapters draw on, challenge and expand the trauma concept to propose more contextually relevant frameworks for transforming haunted memory in the aftermath of historical trauma.
Download or read book Haunted Memories written by Drac Von Stoller and published by Drac Von Stoller. This book was released on 2024-08-21 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The night was still, the kind of still that pressed in on you, heavy and suffocating. David stood over their bodies, the weight of the world and something far more sinister crushing his chest. His wife, Beth, lay sprawled on the kitchen floor, a grotesque parody of her usual vibrant self. Their children, Emily and Thomas, were huddled together in a macabre tableau, their small forms twisted and still. He'd done it. The plan he'd concocted over endless sleepless nights had culminated in this horrific scene. A perfect alibi, a staged break-in, the whole neighborhood's sympathy. It was supposed to be easy. Days blurred into weeks as David navigated the labyrinth of grief. He wore the mask of a heartbroken husband and father with chilling conviction. The funeral was a grotesque performance, tears manufactured with practiced ease, sobs timed to perfection. People whispered about the tragedy, their eyes filled with pity. It was a sweet balm to his soul, a soothing syrup that temporarily numbed the monstrous truth. But the night was an unforgiving mistress. As darkness enveloped the house, so too did the memory of his actions. The gentle curve of Beth's smile, the infectious laughter of their children—all of it was replaced by the chilling image of their lifeless forms. The house, once filled with the sounds of life, became a sepulcher of silence, punctuated only by the echoing footsteps of his guilt. Whiskey became his constant companion. It promised oblivion, a temporary escape from the haunting specter of his past. But the relief was fleeting. The morning always brought a brutal hangover and the inescapable weight of reality. He tried to outrun his demons. A new city, a different job, a fresh start. But wherever he went, the specter of his family followed. Their laughter echoed in empty rooms, their footsteps trailed him down unfamiliar corridors. The face of Beth, contorted in terror, replaced the comforting image of his sleeping wife. One night, as he lay paralyzed by fear, the bedroom door creaked open. A cold draft swept through the room, and a shadow elongated on the wall. His heart pounded like a drumbeat. Slowly, a figure emerged from the darkness.
