Atlantic Crossing in the Wake of Frederick Douglass: Archaeology, Literature, and Spatial Culture de Mark Leone

Atlantic Crossing in the Wake of Frederick Douglass: Archaeology, Literature, and Spatial Culture: Cross/Cultures, cartea 197

Editat de Mark Leone
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 mar 2017
Atlantic Crossings in the Wake of Frederick Douglass takes its bearings from the Maryland-born former slave Frederick Douglass’s 1845 sojourn in Ireland and Britain—a voyage that is understood in editors Mark P. Leone and Lee M. Jenkins’ collection as paradigmatic of the crossings between American, African American, and Irish historical experience and culture with which the collection as a whole is concerned. In crossing the Atlantic, Douglass also completed his journey from slavery to freedom, and from political and cultural marginality into subjective and creative autonomy. Atlantic Crossings traces the stages of that journey in chapters on literature, archaeology, and spatial culture that consider both roots and routes—landscapes of New World slavery, subordination, and state-sponsored surveillance, and narratives of resistance, liberation, and intercultural exchange generated by transatlantic connectivities and the transnational transfer of ideas.

Recenzii

"[...] all of the essays in the volume provide ideas for interpreting the past in new and revealing ways. Mark Leone, his coeditor, Lee Jenkins, and their authors have produced an important model for forging crossdisciplinary conversations and they accomplished this through an impressivelycollaborative approach, involving senior scholars, advanced graduate students, two disciplines, and two institutions."
- Julia A. King (St. Mary’s College of Maryland), Historical Archeology 52, 2018, p. 506–508.
