Collisions of Conflict de Jerzy Sobieraj

Collisions of Conflict: Katowice Interdisciplinary and Comparative Studies, cartea 5

Autor Jerzy Sobieraj
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 iun 2014
This book explores and analyzes the problems and challenges that have resulted from the Civil War, Reconstruction, slavery, and segregation in North America. These painful chapters in American history have continued along racial and regional lines and are of particular interest today when the USA are for the first time governed by an African American president. The postscriptum extends the main narrative by focusing on selected writers' activities and fiction during the Civil War and Reconstruction.
