James Louis Petigru: Southern Conservative, Southern Dissenter
ISBN: 9781570034916 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In the three decades before the Civil War, James Louis Petigru became the dean of the South Carolina bar and Charleston's leading exponent of the constitutional conservatism that placed federal union above state rights, the economic views that underlay Whig politics, and the liberal vision of individual rights enshrined in the Bill of Rights. In the only modern biography of Petigru, William H. and Jane H. Pease trace the rise to social and professional preeminence that not only placed him among South Carolina's elite but also gave him national visibility. In doing so, they explore the...

Gerald Gray's Wife and Lily: A Novel
ISBN: 9780822314110 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.)

The republication of these long-neglected novels will introduce contemporary readers to the...

The Roman Years of a South Carolina Artist : Caroline Carson's Letters Home, 1872-1892
ISBN: 9781570035005 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Caroline Petigru Carson (1820-1892), the elder daughter of Charleston intellectual James Louis Petigru and sister of the novelist Susan Petigru King, seemed destined from birth for life as a southern plantation mistress. Yet, like her sister, Carson challenged the conventions of nineteenth-century Charleston and defied traditional expectations by living apart from her husband and later as a very merry widow. Like her father unwilling to support secession, Carson, a staunch Unionist, left her native South Carolina at the onset of the Civil War. She settled first in New York and then, a decade...

Ladies, Women, and Wenches: Choice and Constraint in Antebellum Charleston and Boston
ISBN: 9780807842898 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Pursuing the meaning of gender in nineteenth-century urban American society, Ladies, Women, and Wenches compares the lives of women living in two distinctive antebellum cultures, Charleston and Boston, between 1820 and 1850. In contrast to most contemporary histories of women, this study examines the lives of all types of women in both cities: slave and free, rich and poor, married and single, those who worked mostly at home and those who led more public lives. Jane Pease and William Pease argue that legal, political, economic, and cultural contraints did limit the options available to...

Redeemer Nation in the Interregnum: An Untimely Meditation on the American Vocation
ISBN: 9780823268160 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Redeemer Nation in the Interregnum interrogates the polyvalent role that American exceptionalism continues to play after 9/11. Whereas American exceptionalism is often construed as a discredited Cold War-era belief structure, Spanos persuasively demonstrates how it operationalizes an apparatus of biopolitical capture that saturates the American body politic down to its capillaries. The exceptionalism that Redeemer Nation in the Interregnum renders starkly visible is not a corrigible ideological screen. It is a deeply structured ethos that functions simultaneously on ontological, moral,...
