Race, Memory, and Property on the Postslavery Plantation
Omschrijving
From Storyville brothels and narratives of turn-of-the-century New Orleans to plantation tours, Bette Davis films, Elvis memorials, Willa Cather's fiction, and the annual prison rodeo held at the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola, this title considers spatial and ideological evolutions of southern plantations after slavery.
