Join with Heart and Soul and Voice”
THE newly created American republic, citizens sang political songs such as "Hail Columbia" and "Jefferson and Liberty" to express fierce political hostility and to suggest the possibility of reconciliation.Most familiar to historians are the occasions when they sang to proclaim their partisan political identity and vex the opposition.Across the country, Americans joined popular songs with rough music-a "rude cacophony," in E. P. Thompson's words-…
Gender and Slavery
In the last three decades, gender has become an indispensable category of analysis in the study of slavery in the Americas, illuminating both the day-to-day lives of enslaved and enslaving peoples and ideas about race and slavery. While studying gender means much more than studying women, the literature on enslaved women is especially influential, in part because of gender analysis's origins in women's history and in part because of women's centr…

Masterful Women
Many early-nineteenth-century slaveholders considered themselves masters not only over slaves, but also over the institutions of marriage and family. According to many historians, the privilege of mastery was reserved for white males. But as many as one in ten slaveholders - sometimes more - was a widow, and as Kirsten E. Wood demonstrates, between the American Revolution and the Civil War, slaveholding widows developed their own version of maste…
Anna Madgigine Jai Kingsley
Anna Kingsley's life story adds a dramatic chapter to histories of the South, the state of Florida, and the African diaspora. Working from surprisingly extensive records, including information and photographs from extended-family members and descendants, Daniel Shafer reconstructs and documents one slave's remarkable story. Both an American slave and a slaveowner - and possibly an African princess - Anna was a teenager when she was captured in he…
Fanny Kemble's Civil Wars
A British stage star turned Georgia plantation mistress, Kemble is perhaps best known as America's most unlikely abolitionist, whose passionate writings against human bondage made her heroine of the Union cause. Irrepressible word and deed, Kemble captured the imaginations of many famous Americans of the antebellum era. Walt Whitman was held spellbound at one of her early New York City stage performances, rhapsodizing: Fanny Kemble! Name to conju…
A Republic for the Ages
The Devil's Lane
When Europeans settled in early South, they quarrelled over many things -- but few imbroglios were so fierce as battles over land. Landowners wrangled bitterly over boundaries with neighbours and contested areas became known as the devil's lane. Violence and bloodshed were but some of consequences to befall those who ventured into these disputed territories. The Devil's Lane highlights important new work on sexuality, race, and gender in South fr…
One Woman so Dangerous to Public Morals
After the election of 1828, speculation about Andrew Jackson's plans for the nation simmered inside Washington, D.C., and across the country. During the campaign, Jackson had said little about his policy goals, and his supporters tailored their representations of his views to suit local audiences. As a result, neither his friends nor his foes knew quite what to expect when Jackson arrived in the capital city. Politically involved Washingtonians c…
