Abstract:
InImperialism at Home, Susan Meyer explores Charlotte Brontë's metaphorical use of race and empire in Jane Eyre. In particular, she is struck by Brontë's repeated allusions to bondage and slavery and wonders, “Why would Brontë write a novel permeated with the imagery of slavery, and suggesting the possibility of a slave uprising, in 1846, after the emancipation of the British slaves had already taken place?” (71). Meyer speculates, “Perhaps the eight years since emancipation provided enough historical distance for Brontë to make a serious and public, although implicit, critique of British slavery and British imperialism in the West Indies” (71). Perhaps. More likely, I would argue, is the possibility that Brontë was thinking not of West Indian slavery, but of American slavery.

Abstract This publication is a transcription and translation of two texts that relate to slavery in the Danish West Indies. The first text is the second half of a letter by August Spangenberg to Isaac le Long just after Spangenberg’s return to Skippack from the Danish West Indies. It contains Spangenberg’s impressions of life and the mission in St. Thomas six years after its commencement. The second text is a German version of the farewell speech Zinzendorf gave to government officials and slaves in February 1739 concluding his sojourn on St. Thomas. In Zinzendorf’s speech we see the distinction between the enslaved, mortal body and the free, eternal soul, which legitimates slavery within Christianity. Both of these texts are well known from studies on Moravian missions and slavery, but here the full text provides us with a fuller view of the political and social contexts of the early Moravian missions to the Danish West Indies and the complicated history of slavery and Christianity.

Abstract:
Abstract The author traces the effects of Moravian mission work on the slave culture of the Danish West Indies. She describes the colonization of the islands, including the context of its religious foundations and role of Moravian missionaries from their arrival in 1732 through the ultimate emancipation of the slave population in 1848. Although Moravians understood slavery as a condition ordained by God, they believed in the spiritual equality of all souls. One of the first missionaries, Friedrich Martin, became a strong advocate of teaching literacy among slaves in order to spread the gospel. Plantation owners initially resisted this instruction, but as the abolition movement swelled over the next hundred years, Moravians inadvertently became facilitators of peace and education. In 1839 all schools for free and slave negroes were placed under Moravian control. In their indirect role as teachers and purveyors of the gospel, Moravian missionaries nurtured a sense of dignity and equality among slaves, which contributed greatly to the emancipation movement in the Danish West Indies.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTWilliam Gladstone's views on slavery and the slave trade have received little attention from historians, although he spent much of his early years in parliament dealing with issues related to that subject. His stance on slavery echoed that of his father, who was one of the largest slave owners in the British West Indies, and on whom he was dependent for financial support. Gladstone opposed the slave trade but he wanted to improve the condition of the slaves before they were liberated. In 1833, he accepted emancipation because it was accompanied by a period of apprenticeship for the ex-slaves and by financial compensation for the planters. In the 1840s, his defence of the economic interests of the British planters was again evident in his opposition to the foreign slave trade and slave-grown sugar. By the 1850s, however, he believed that the best way to end the slave trade was by persuasion, rather than by force, and that conviction influenced his attitude to the American Civil War and to British colonial policy. As leader of the Liberal party, Gladstone, unlike many of his supporters, showed no enthusiasm for an anti-slavery crusade in Africa. His passionate commitment to liberty for oppressed peoples was seldom evident in his attitude to slavery.

Abstract:
This paper traces the evolution of a coherent feminist genre in written historical texts during and after slavery, and in relation to contemporary feminist writing in the West Indies. The paper problematizes the category ‘woman’ during slavery, arguing that femininity was itself deeply differentiated by class and race, thus leading to historical disunity in the notion of feminine identity during slavery. This gender neutrality has not been sufficiently appreciated in contemporary feminist thought leading to liberal feminist politics in the region. This has proved counter productive in the attempts of Caribbean feminist theorizing to provide alternative understandings of the construction of the nation-state as it emerged out of slavery and the role of women themselves in the shaping of modern Caribbean society.

Abstract:
In 1833 slavery was abolished in the British West Indian colonies. A labour system that had been in operation for two hundred years, ended. A campaign based on the concept of freedom came to fruition. The idea of freedom was central to enlightenment thought. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of conscience, freedom of movement, a free press, free trade and free labour were all part of enlightenment ideology. The institution of slavery, which limited all freedoms, came under pressure in an enlightened environment. Unlike the ancients who believed there could not be a civilized society without slaves, enlightenment philosophers developed the view that slavery was antithetical to civilization.

Abstract:
AbstractIn the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, officers of the Danish West India and Guinea Company struggled to balance the sovereignty of the company with the mastery of St. Thomas’ and St. John's slave owners. This struggle was central to the making of the laws that controlled enslaved Africans and their descendants. Slave laws described slave crime and punishment, yet they also contained descriptions of the political entities that had the power to represent and execute the law. Succeeding governors of St. Thomas and St. John set out to align claims about state sovereignty with masters’ prerogatives, and this balancing act shaped the substance of slave law in the Danish West Indies. Indeed, the slave laws pronounced by and the legal thinking engaged in by island governors suggest that sovereignty was never a stable state of affairs in the Danish West Indies. It was always open to renegotiation as governors, with varying degrees of loyalty to the company and at times with questionable capability, strove to determine what sovereignty ought to look like in a time of slavery.

Abstract:
Slavery and apprenticeship came to an end in the British West Indies in 1838, the year photography was developed as a fixed representational process. No photographs of slavery in the region exist or have been found. Despite this visual lacuna, some recent historical accounts of slavery reproduce photographs that seem to present the period in photographic form. Typically these images date to the late nineteenth century. Rather than see such uses of photography as flawed, or the absence of a photographic archive as prohibitive to the historical construction of slavery, both circumstances generate new understandings of slavery and its connection to post-emancipation economies, of history and its relationship to photography, and of archival absence and its representational possibilities.

Abstract:
AbstractSir John Gladstone made a fortune as a Demerara sugar-planter and a key supporter of the British policy of amelioration in which slavery would be “improved” by making it more “humane.” Unlike resident planters in the British West Indies, who were firmly opposed to any alteration to the conditions of enslavement, and unlike abolitionists, who saw amelioration as a step toward abolition, Gladstone was a rare but influential metropolitan-based planter with an expansive imperial vision, prepared to work with British politicians to guarantee his investments in slavery through progressive slave reforms. This article intersects with recent historiography highlighting connections between metropole and colony but also insists on the influence of Demerara, including the effects of a large slave rebellion centered on Gladstone's estates (which illustrated that enslaved people were not happy with Gladstone's supposedly enlightened attitudes) on metropolitan sensibilities in the 1820s. Gladstone's strategies for an improved slavery, despite the contradictions inherent in championing such a policy while maintaining a fierce drive for profits, were a powerful counter to a renewed abolitionist thrust against slavery in the mid to late 1820s. Gladstone showed that that the logic of gradual emancipation still had force in imperial thinking in this decade.

Abstract:
AbstractIn most contexts, personal names function as identifiers and as a locus for identity. Therefore, names can be used to trace patterns of kinship, ancestry, and belonging. The social power of naming, however, and its capacity to shape the life course of the person named, becomes most evident when it has the opposite intent: to sever connections and injure. Naming in slave society was primarily practical, an essential first step in commodifying human beings so they could be removed from their roots and social networks, bought, sold, mortgaged, and adjudicated. Such practices have long been integral to processes of colonization and enslavement. This paper discusses the implications of naming practices in the context of slavery, focusing on the names given to enslaved Africans and their descendants through baptism in the Lutheran and Moravian churches in the Danish West Indies. Drawing on historiographical accounts and a detailed analysis of plantation and parish records from the island of St. Croix, we outline and contextualize these patterns and practices of naming. We examine the extent to which the adoption of European and Christian names can be read as an effort toward resistance and self-determination on the part of the enslaved. Our account is illuminated by details from the lives of three former slaves from the Danish West Indies.

Abstract:
There are a lot of Swedish people who are aware of former Swedish colonies. St. Barthélemy in the West Indies, has many streets and towns named after Swedish people, exemplified by the capital Gustavia, named after King Gustav III. What many fail to learn about however, is the fact that slavery and slave trade is a relatively large part of Sweden’s cultural heritage. These are events that Sweden doesn’t seem to want to remember.   This study aims to look at Swedish history books to study historical writing about Sweden’s involvement in slavery and slave trade. The study will also analyze the social debate regarding slavery in Swedish newspapers, in an effort to showcase why these historical events have been forgotten and purposely evaded. The study will make use of theoretical standpoints revolving around historiography and use of history.   The results show that social debates in Swedish newspapers is largely in agreement regarding the grim nature of slavery and the shameful historical events that transpire. In addition to this, the papers seem to be in agreement regarding the need to address this part of Sweden’s history in an effort to tackle future conflicts facing multicultural countries such as Sweden. In regard to history books, the result is telling. In essence, history outside of Europe has been neglected, and thus Sweden has been allowed to create their own historical narrative, leaving slave trade beyond the horizon.

Abstract:
This is an investigation and analysis of the institution of indentured servitude in the English colonies of Virginia and Barbados in the first half of the seventeenth century. It argues that the system of indentured servitude contributed to the development of property rights in individuals and thereby provided early examples of treating people as property that would ultimately lead to the rise of chattel slavery in both colonies. It investigates servitude in law, politics, and practice providing examples of the treatment, trade, and resistance of servants throughout this period. Included are chapters examining the trade in servants and a statistical breakdown of the servant population, a comparison of the practice of servitude in both colonies, and a description of the factors that led to the eventual transition to black slavery.

Abstract:
La traite négrière et l’esclavage transatlantique, basés sur une idéologie raciste, représentent plusieurs siècles de violences interpersonnelles et de traumatismes répétés. Déshumanisant, l’esclavage a induit au niveau psychologique des processus de destruction massifs. Cette thèse en psychologie clinique analyse les traces de ce passé fondateur de la culture antillaise : elle explore les racines traumatiques de l’héritage de l’esclavage ainsi que ses manifestations contemporaines. Elle présente les résidus psychiques de ce traumatisme historique à travers l’élaboration de la culture créole, de l’identité antillaise et des pratiques sociales. Les anciennes colonies sont traversées par une prégnance de la violence dans le lien social, qui traduit tout autant un recours privilégié à la violence qu’une aptitude psychique à la traiter. Nous abordons cette tendance sous l’angle de la plasticité psychique. S’étayant sur la plasticité cérébrale, elle mobilise des défenses pour préserver l’homéostasie psychique selon la culture du sujet. Nos travaux concernent deux îles françaises, la Martinique et la Guadeloupe, et deux îles anglaises, la Dominique et Sainte-Lucie. Nous étudions leurs héritages par un croisement de disciplines (psychologie, psychanalyse, sociologie, anthropologie, neurosciences, histoire), dans une perspective épistémologique. Une recherche psycho-historique sur chaque île a permis de reconstituer la phylogenèse psychique, révélant l’archaïque de matrices identitaires enfouies. Elle dévoile l’ancrage d’un signifiant d’identité collective, qui repose sur plusieurs symboles issus du vécu des populations durant la période esclavagiste. En parallèle de ces vestiges identitaires propres à chaque île, on retrouve des stigmates psychiques transiliens qui contaminent le lien social. Arrimés à la culture, qui leur offre une voie de déploiement transgénérationnel, ils convoquent une répétition symptomatique des souffrances à travers certaines pratiques familiales et sociales. La culture antillaise, forte de ses adages créoles qui incitent à ne pas s’effondrer, soutiendrait aussi une plasticité psychique spécifique. L’étude quantitative en psychopathologie mesure l’effet de la culture antillaise sur l’impact psychologique de violences physiques répétées. Cette culture favorise le maintien d’un équilibre psychologique à travers un vécu de violences hautement traumatogènes. Les sujets antillais semblent être héritiers d’éléments de résistance psychique et de résilience efficaces face au trauma. L’étude qualitative en anthropologie sociale établit un état des lieux de l’appréhension de cet héritage aujourd’hui par les descendants d’esclaves. Par l’analyse de leurs discours et de leurs représentations de l’esclavage et de la traite négrière aux Antilles, elle amène à déterminer les vecteurs et les facteurs généraux qui façonnent le rapport des descendants à leur héritage. Ainsi, la présente thèse offre de nouvelles perspectives de compréhension des implications psychologiques de l’esclavage transatlantique et de la traite négrière. D’une part, en dévoilant la pluralité des héritages aux Petites Antilles et leurs contours singuliers. D’autre part, en présentant l’héritage commun sous un angle novateur : dans sa valence psychotraumatique, mais aussi en tant que transmission de ressources psychiques. Aussi, les signifiants d’identités collectives sont fédérateurs : ils fondent un héritage partagé, qui élude les divisions socioraciales. Enfin, nos travaux sur les blessures psychologiques des descendants pointent des pistes afin d’agir pour l’apaisement. La reconnaissance de ces blessures représente désormais un enjeu international. Une réflexion populaire et politique s’est engagée au niveau mondial, dans une dynamique de décolonisation et de réparation. Nos recherches s’inscrivent dans cette actualité : elles éclairent les traces du passé pour mieux répondre aux besoins psychologiques et sociétaux du présent
The slave trade and transatlantic slavery, based on a racist ideology, represent several centuries of interpersonal violence and repeated trauma. Dehumanizing, slavery induced massive psychological destruction. This thesis in clinical psychology analyzes the traces of this founding past of West Indian culture: it explores the traumatic roots of the legacy of slavery, as well as its contemporary manifestations. She presents the psychic residues of this historical trauma through the development of Creole culture, West Indian identity and social practices. The former colonies are marked by a pervasiveness of violence in the social bond, which reflects both a privileged recourse to violence and a psychic ability to deal with it. We approach this tendency from the angle of psychic plasticity. Based on brain plasticity, it mobilizes defenses to preserve psychic homeostasis according to the subject's culture. Our work focuses on two French islands, Martinique and Guadeloupe, and two English islands, Dominica and Saint Lucia. We study their heritages through a cross-disciplinary approach (psychology, psychoanalysis, sociology, anthropology, neuroscience, history), from an epistemological perspective.Psycho-historical research on each island has enabled us to reconstitute psychic phylogenesis, revealing the archaic nature of buried identity matrices. It reveals the anchoring of a collective identity signifier, based on several symbols derived from the experience of the populations during the slavery period. Alongside these identity vestiges specific to each island, we find transilians' psychic stigmas contaminating the social bond. Attached to culture, which offers them a means of transgenerational deployment, they summon a symptomatic repetition of suffering through certain family and social practices. West Indian culture, with its Creole adages encouraging people not to collapse, also supports a specific psychic plasticity. Quantitative studies in psychopathology have measured the effect of West Indian culture on the psychological impact of repeated physical violence. This culture favors the maintenance of psychological equilibrium through the experience of highly traumatizing violence. West Indian subjects seem to have inherited elements of psychic resistance and resilience that are effective in the face of trauma. This qualitative study in social anthropology takes stock of how the descendants of slaves understand this heritage today. By analyzing their discourse and representations of slavery and the slave trade in the French West Indies, it helps to determine the vectors and factors that generate and perpetuate this legacy.This thesis offers new insights into the psychological implications of transatlantic slavery and the slave trade. On the one hand, by revealing the plurality of heritages in the Lesser Antilles and their singular contours. Secondly, by presenting the common heritage from an innovative angle: in its psychotraumatic valence, but also as a transmission of psychic resources. Also, the signifiers of collective identities are federators: they form the basis of a shared heritage, which eludes socio-racial divisions. Finally, our work on the psychological wounds of descendants points the way to action to heal them. Recognition of these wounds is now an international issue. A popular and political debate is underway around the world, as part of a process of decolonization and reparation. Our research is part of this current trend: it sheds light on the traces of the past to better respond to the psychological and societal needs of the present

Abstract:
This study seeks to explore the nature and activities of the anti-abolitionists in the era of British abolition. There were Britons who actively opposed the idea of abolishing the slave trade and West Indian slavery. They published works promoting and defending the trade and the institution of slavery. They challenged abolitionist assertions and claims about life in the colonies and the nature of the slaves and attacked the sentimental nature of abolitionist rhetoric. Proslavery MPs argued in Parliament for the maintenance of slavery and the slave trade. Members of the West Indian interest formed committees to produce their own propaganda and petitions. They also worked with Parliament to develop strategies to ameliorate slavery and end British slaveholding, whilst securing several more years of plantation labour and financial compensation for slaveholders. Politicians, writers, members of the West Indian interest, and their supporters actively fought to maintain colonial slavery and the prosperity of Britain and the colonies. A wide range of sources has been employed to reveal the true nature of the proslavery arguments advanced in Britain in the era of abolition. These include committee minutes, petitions, pamphlets, reviews, manuals, travel writing, scientific studies, political prints, portraits, poetry and song, plays, and the records of every parliamentary debate on slavery, the slave trade, and the West Indian colonies. Specific proslavery and anti-abolitionist arguments have been identified and analysed using these sources, with some commentary on how the setting or genre potentially impacted on the argument being presented. This analysis reveals that economic, racial, legal, historical, strategic, religious, moral, and humanitarian arguments were all used to counter the growing popularity of abolition and emancipation. Proslavery rhetoric in Parliament is also analysed, revealing an active proslavery side committed to fighting abolition. Overall, this study contributes to our current understanding of the timing, nature, and reception of British abolition in Britain by showing that the process was influenced by a serious debate.
