William Harris, University of NH,""Combining established work with that of recent provocative scholarship on the antebellum South, this collection of essays puts students in touch with some of the central debates in this dynamic field. It includes substantial excerpts from the work of Eugene Genovese and Elizabeth Fox-Genovese, who lay out the influential interpretation of the South as a ""paternalistic"" society and culture, and contributions from recent scholars who provide dissenting or alternative interpretations of the relations between masters and slaves, men and women. The essays draw on a wide range of disciplines, including economics, psychology and anthropology to investigate the nature of plantation and family life."" ""Explanatory notes guide the reader through each essay and the editor's introduction places the work in its historical context."" Includes bibliographical references and an Index.
