  • James Alexander Dun. Dangerous Neighbors: Making the Haitian Revolution in Early America

    Carroll Smith-RosenbergARTICLEThe American Historical Review2017

    Never judge a book by its cover. While the title of James Alexander Dun’s Dangerous Neighbors: Making the Haitian Revolution in Early America suggests a careful study of the Haitian Revolution and of U.S.-Haitian relations as both nations took form during the late eighteenth century, Dun actually offers us a meticulous and challenging analysis of the emergence of American exceptionalism. Carefully analyzing the United States’ rapidly multiplying …

  • Daniel O'Quinn. Entertaining Crisis in the Atlantic Imperium, 1770-1790

    Carroll Smith-RosenbergARTICLEThe American Historical Review2012

    Between the 1770s and the 1790s, Great Britain sustained a series of military and diplomatic losses that endangered the empire and curtailed its political sway and sense of national security. Its North American colonies rose up in rebellion. Military defeats at Saratoga, Trenton, and Yorktown culminated in American independence. Suddenly Britain, having been monarch of all it had beheld following its victory over France in the Seven Years' War, l…

  • The Specter of Sex: Gendered Foundations of Racial Formation in the United States

    Carroll Smith-RosenbergARTICLEJournal of American History2011

    The Specter of Sex begins with a question. “What exactly constitutes the relationship between race and gender?” (p. 1). Dynamic social, cultural, and discursive constructions, gender and race, Sally L. Kitch argues, have existed in complex interaction from the early modern period to the present making it “more helpful to think about gendered race or racialized gender than to think about the two terms separately” (ibid.). A feminist theorist and l…

  • This Violent Empire: The Birth of an American National Identity

    Carroll Smith-RosenbergBOOKThis violent empire2010

    This book traces the origins of American violence, racism, and paranoia to the founding moments of the new nation and the initial instability of Americans' national sense of self. Fusing cultural and political analyses to create a new form of political history, it explores the ways the founding generation, lacking a common history, governmental infrastructures, and shared culture, solidified their national sense of self by imagining a series of “…

  • The National Uncanny: Indian Ghosts and American Subjects

    Carroll Smith-Rosenberg, Renée BerglandREVIEWThe William and Mary Quarterly2001

    Although spectral Indians appear with startling frequency in US literary works, until now the implications of describing them as ghosts have not been thoroughly investigated. In the first years of nationhood, Philip Freneau and Sarah Wentworth Morton peopled their works with Indian phantoms, as did Charles Brocken Brown, Washington Irving, Samuel Woodworth, Lydia Maria Child, James Fenimore Cooper, William Apess, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and others w…

  • Davey Crockett as Trickster: Pornography, Liminality and Symbolic Inversion in Victorian America

    Open AccessCarroll Smith-RosenbergARTICLEJournal of Contemporary History1982Cited by: 2References: 1

    Individuals, experiencing themselves as powerless in the face of massive and unremitting social transformation, respond by attempting to capture and encapsulate such change within a new and ordered symbolic universe. They seek through imagery and myth to mitigate their feelings of helplessness by deflecting and partially distorting change and thus bringing it within the control of the imagination. Especially when the social fabric is rent in fund…
