Eudell Demetrius L2002
Books, Manuscripts
Subject: This comparative study examines the emancipation process in the British Caribbean, particularly Jamaica, during the 1830s and in the United States, particularly South Carolina, during the 1860s. Analysing the intellectual and ideological foundations of post-slavery Anglo-America, the book explores how former slaves, former slaveholders, and their societies' central governments understood and discussed slavery, emancipation, and the transition between the two.
