Lynching in the New South: Georgia and Virginia, 1880-1930
ISBN: 9780252063459 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 1905, the sociologist James Cutler observed, "It has been said that our country's national crime is lynching". If lynching was a national crime, it was a southern obsession. Based on an analysis of nearly six hundred lynchings, this volume offers a new, full appraisal of the complex character of lynching. In Virginia, the southern state with the fewest lynchings, W. Fitzhugh Brundage found that conditions did not breed endemic mob violence. The character of white domination in Georgia, however, was symbolized by nearly five hundred lynchings and became the measure of race relations in the...

Southern Past: A Clash of Race and Memory
ISBN: 9780674027213 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 418 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Since the Civil War whites and blacks have struggled over the meanings and uses of the Southern past. Indeed, today's controversies over flying the Confederate flag, renaming schools and streets, and commemorating the Civil War and the civil rights movement are only the latest examples of this ongoing divisive contest over issues of regional identity and heritage. The Southern Past argues that these battles are ultimately about who has the power to determine what we remember of the past, and whether that remembrance will honor all Southerners or only select groups. For more... Since the Civil War whites and blacks have struggled over the meanings and uses of the Southern past. Indeed, today's controversies over flying the... |

Academic studies of the Civil War and historical memory abound, ensuring a deeper understanding of how the war s meaning has shifted over time and the implications of those changes for concepts of race, citizenship, and nationhood.
