Andrew Fry and Regionalism, Honor, and War
Andrew Fry has written a splendid historiographical review about regionalism and American foreign policy. He has every reason to hope that scholars, not necessarily in the field of diplomatic studies, will find it most enlightening. This writer certainly did. If Fry has missed any article or book pertinent to the subject, I would be very surprised. There is always, though, room for further exposition. While honor is frequently and correctly menti…

The Southern Elite and Social Change
The Southern Elite and Social Change: Essays in Honor of Willard B. Gatewood, Jr. Edited by Randy Finley and Thomas A. DeBlack. (Fayetteville: University of Arkansas Press, 2002. Pp. xxi, 221. Foreword by James C. Cobb, introduction, bibliography of Gatewood publications, notes, list of contributors. $19.95, paper.) Randy Finley and Thomas A. DeBlack, editors of this valuable collection of essays, begin with an arresting metaphor. Southerners, th…
Dixie's Power in War and Peace
According to Joseph Fry’s informative and substantial historical survey, southern influences have shaped American foreign policy in ways that scholars have either dismissed or neglected. Relying on secondary literature to great effect, he perceptively chronicles the interconnection of international affairs with southern racial obsessions, agrarian and expansionist aims, suspicion of foreign influences, wariness about centralizing trends, and insi…
Hearts of Darkness
Hearts of Darkness: Wellsprings of a Southern Literary Tradition. By Bertram Wyatt-Brown. (Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 2003. Pp. xvi, 235. Illustrations. Cloth, $59.95; paper, $24.95.)In Hearts of Darkness, Bertram Wyatt-Brown traces the thread of depression through the lives and art of southern writers from Poe Glasgow. The figures he explores are familiar enough: Poe, Tucker, Hammond, Ruffin, Simms, Lamar, Lincoln, O'Hara, Ch…
The Shaping of Southern Culture
The Shaping of Southern Culture: Honor, Grace, and War, 1760s-1880s. By Bertram Wyatt-Brown. (Chapel Hill: The University of North Carolina Press, 2001. Pp. xix, 412. Appendix. Cloth, $55.00; paper, $19.95.) Bertram Wyatt-Brown noted that few books on honor existed when he began researching the topic thirty years ago. As much as any historian studying the American South, he has addressed this paucity with his magisterial Southern Honor: Ethics an…
Going off Half-Cocked
THE PROFESSION OF AMERICAN HISTORIANS IS NO MORE IMMUNE FROM THE toils of notoriety than the business world with its corporate meltdowns. One popular historian seems to have borrowed lengthy passages from compatriots as coolly as some Houston executives cooked their financial books. Likewise, another, often seen on television, admits paying off an author whose work was exploited without attribution. Amid such sensational breaches in public trust,…
The Shaping of Southern Culture
Extending his investigation into the ethical life of the white American south beyond Southern Honour (1982), Bertram Wyatt-Brown explores three major themes: the political aspects of the South's code of honour, the increasing prominence of Protestant faith in white southerners' lives, and the devastating impact of war, defeat, and an angry loss of confidence during the post-Civil War era. This study first demonstrates the psychological complexity…
In the Image of God
The Southern State of Mind
This title offers rich insights into Southern life, letters, and culture in the new millennium. In a collection of essays as provocative as the region that inspired them, leading historians and literary critics offer a combined effort to define Southern identity at the end of the twentieth century. Removed from the devotional, certifying, and celebratory view of the South that has dominated books of this genre, Southern State of Mind addresses th…

Tom Watson Revisited
SAD TO SAY, THE ERA OF C. VANN WOODWARD HAS COME TO A CLOSE. No more revised editions of Strange Career of Jim Crow will materialize, no more essays in New York Review of Books, no more platform appearances at conferences with his friend William Styron, no more summer martinis with sprightly conversationalist on his leaf-shaded stone patio. We still miss him. Yet we continue to write about him and honor his memory with symposiums. The latest one,…
The Shaping of Southern Culture
In the past twenty years, historians have redefined the concept of honor as an ethical and behaviorial standard rather than as a traditional code of manliness. No scholar has been as influential in this redefining of honor as Bertram Wyatt-Brown, whose 1982 book, Southern Honor, still dominates the literature on the subject. In this collection of essays, he extends, revises, and refines the lineaments of honor that he so skillfully put forth almo…
