Abstract:

Abstract: There is a movement afoot across the Low Country states of Georgia and South Carolina to revive indigo. The use and spirit of this plant—a plant that many people used to believe has magical powers, given the vibrant colors it conjures—is being revived for multiple reasons. The authors participated in this process of rebirth because they were asked to by Maurice Bailey’s mother, Ms. Cornelia Walker Bailey, a griot who fought for Gullah Geechee culture on Sapelo Island until she passed away in 2017. The makers, dyers, textile artists and others interested in the craft of indigo are com

Abstract This article analyzes the documentation available in an attempt to settle the controversy over the “true” date and place of birth of Olaudah Equiano, or Gustavo Vassa, the African. Several original documents are analyzed, and the data is compared to the information provided by the author himself in his The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, or Gustavus Vassa, the African. Written by Himself, first published in London, in 1789. According to these documents (a baptismal record and a muster book), he was not born in Africa, in Igboland (in today’s Nigeria) as he argued

Abstract:

AbstractCharles Chesnutt's fiction describes the forests of North Carolina not as the unspoiled wildernesses of the popular imagination but instead as an integral part of the extractive economy of the South. In the postbellum decades, many northerners visited the state's forests for health tourism even as the turpentine and lumber industries were decimating the local pine. By drawing on his readers’ familiarity with turpentine, a pine product that was both a household staple and a global commodity, Chesnutt shows his readers how the pine woods were anything but bucolic. Chesnutt's ecological v

Abstract: Albion W. Tourgée wrote best-selling novels based on his days fighting the Klan and trying to reconstruct North Carolina. Recently his fiction and his role as Homer Plessy's lead attorney have received renewed attention. But the work to which he devoted most energy remains forgotten. Speaking directly to today's world of ongoing racial injustice and income inequality, "89 (1888) is told by the Grand Master of the Order of the Southern Cross. He and a northern monopolist based on J.D. Rockefeller conspire to bring about peaceful secession of the South and suppression of northern worke

Abstract:

This is an essay about the archive. It considers what the archive is, who or what constitutes it and for what purposes, and how we understand the archiving of knowledge as a disciplinary practice: that is, as a practice of disciplinary power and as a means of producing academic disciplines. It is also an essay about two archives in particular: the Dashiell Hammett Family Papers and the Richard Layman Collection of Dashiell Hammett, both housed in the Irvin Department of Rare Books and Special Collections at the University of South Carolina. These archives give us a fascinating insight into the

Abstract:

This chapter discusses the fiction of Ron Rash, who sets almost all of his work—poems, short stories, and novels—in the Carolinas and focuses on the people who live or have lived there. Rash was born in Chester, South Carolina, in 1953, and grew up in Boiling Springs, North Carolina. While not a direct heir to the “Southern Redneck and White Trash” tradition, Rash fills his work with characters firmly embedded in the Rough South—mostly lower-class whites from Appalachian North and South Carolina. Rash's work illustrates his concern with working-class characters and their struggles, with poor w

Abstract:

This chapter discusses Jill McCorkle's fiction, which reflects the whole South, rather than just its middle class. McCorkle did not grow up amid poverty, and in fact calls her upbringing in 1960s Lumberton, North Carolina, “very much middle-class”—even upper class by the standards of her elementary school classmates. Her 1990 novel, Ferris Beach, features a character named Kitty Burns, a transition figure between the old South, with its clear divisions of class, and the new, where what a person does is more important than where that person came from.

Abstract:

Abstract Born in the West Indies in 1722 and educated in England, Eliza Lucas was a privileged child of an upper-class planter who moved his family to Wappoo plantation in South Carolina when Eliza was fifteen. When her father was called back to Antigua in 1739, he left Eliza in charge of his three plantations. The young woman proved a talented manager, and successfully introduced the cultivation of indigo (a dye for textiles), a crop she imported from the West Indies in 1740. This agricultural breakthrough was a boon to the young colony, and became the source of fortune for many South Carolin

Abstract:

In 1851, Louisiana doctor Samuel Cartwright declared that lethargy was an innate trait among African Americans that could only be managed through the prescription of hard labor. A half century later, Charles Chesnutt penned his “Uncle Julius” tales (1887–1900), which played on the plantation tradition of local color fiction and drew from slave narratives to challenge scientific racism in the US South and beyond. The stories, told by a formerly enslaved and newly indentured Black inhabitant of a North Carolina plantation, illustrate the South’s incessant demands on Black people’s time. Chesnutt
