The Christian Recorder, Broken Families And Educated Nations: Julia Collins' Civil War Novel The Curse Of Caste, P. Gabrielle Foreman
The Christian Recorder, Broken Families And Educated Nations: Julia Collins' Civil War Novel The Curse Of Caste, P. Gabrielle Foreman
P. Gabrielle Foreman
This essay views Julia Collins’s The Curse of Caste; or The Slave Bride (1865) through the racialized lens of Civil War’s promise and trauma. At first glance, the author’s narrative choices—her antebellum frame, her principal character’s racial indeterminacy and domestic concerns, even the overtly racialized advice she dispenses in the essays she publishes in the important Black paper, the Christian Recorder—seem distractingly distanced from the immediacy of the unfolding national conflict.

P. Gabrielle Foreman
The relation between ontology and naming is explicitly figured in both Isabel Allende's House of the Spirits and Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon.
