Sex, Sickness, and Slavery: Illness in the Antebellum South
ISBN: 9780252080531 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Marli F. Wiener skillfully integrates the history of medicine with social and intellectual history in this study of how race and sex complicated medical treatment in the antebellum South. "Sex, Sickness, and Slavery" argues that Southern physicians' scientific training and practice uniquely entitled them to formulate medical justification for the imbalanced racial hierarchies of the period. Challenged with both helping to preserve the slave system (by acknowledging and preserving clear distinctions of race and sex) and enhancing their own authority (with correct medical diagnoses and...

'Til Death or Distance Do Us Part: Love and Marriage in African America
ISBN: 9780199389704 / Angielski / Miękka / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Conventional wisdom tells us that marriage was illegal for African Americans during the antebellum era, and that if people married at all, their vows were tenuous ones: "until death or distance do us part." It is an impression that imbues beliefs about black families to this day. But it's a perception primarily based on documents produced by abolitionists, the state, or other partisans. It doesn't tell the whole story. Drawing on a trove of less well-known sources including family histories, folk stories, memoirs, sermons, and especially the fascinating writings from the Afro-Protestant...

Ancient Greek and Roman Slavery
ISBN: 9781405188050 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Classical slavery provides fascinating, complex, and engaging, albeit sometimes grim, topics for the historian. Over the last generation, these have attracted the attention of many of the best minds in ancient social history.

Doce Anos de Esclavitud / Twelve Years a Slave (Spanish Edition)
ISBN: 9781607967330 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. El mejor testimonio sobre la epoca mas sombria de la historia estadounidense son las desgarradoras memorias de Solomon Northup, un afroamericano nacido como hombre libre en Nueva York. Las escribio despues de haber pasado doce anos esclavizado en varias plantaciones de Luisiana. Corria el ano 1841 cuando fue enganado, secuestrado y vendido. Desaparecio sin dejar rastro. Su relato es sobrecogedor y su punto de vista, inusual, pues Northup conocio de primera mano que significaba ser un hombre libre y ser victima de la esclavitud. Su valioso libro ha subsistido por ser una cronica sobre el mal y...

Despite the long history of the institution and its widespread use around the globe, many people still largely associate slavery, outside of the biblical references in the Old Testament, to the enslavement of Africans in America, particularly the United States. Slavery proved to be essential to the creation of the young nation's agricultural and industrial economies and profoundly shaped its political and cultural landscapes, even until today.

Gateway to Freedom : The Hidden History of America's Fugitive Slaves
ISBN: 9780198737902 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When slavery was a routine part of life in America's South, a secret network of activists and escape routes enabled slaves to make their way to freedom in what is now Canada. The 'underground railroad' has become part of folklore, but one part of the story is only now coming to light. In New York, a city whose banks, business and politics were deeply enmeshed in the slave economy, three men played a remarkable part, at huge personal risk. In Gateway to Freedom, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Eric Foner tells the story of Sydney Howard Gay, an abolitionist newspaper editor; Louis Napoleon,...
