Description
Summary:According to the author, these texts clearly convey the widespread disapproval among American intellectuals of the antebellum generation of the rigid class structure of the old world, in contrast with American society. According to the author, the development of trafc in and employment of Native American slaves was pivotal in the early stages of plantation slavery and economy in America. The twelve contributions in this collection, based on a colloquium organized by the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and the International Marx-Engels Foundation in June 2001, examine the correspondence culture that existed among elites of the radical opposition and the early labour movement in the nineteenth century, and compare this culture to the one among scientists and artists. [...]the contributors aim to establish the role of correspondence in the development of a network-style system within the realm of politics, science, and arts. According to Mrs Zweig, Farbsteins class-consciousness permeated his life, as did his efforts to help Jews (especially the ones who were emigrants from eastern Europe), the working class, and women.
