Violence, Christianity, And The Anglo-Saxon Charms, Laurajan G. Gallardo Jan 2011

Violence, Christianity, And The Anglo-Saxon Charms, Laurajan G. Gallardo

Masters Theses

Concentration in Literary Studies

The thesis focuses on violence reinterpreted through the Anglo-Saxon charms that exhibit a fusion of Christian and pagan elements.

This interconnectedness is seen in the Anglo-Saxon perception of magic, which in their understanding was synonymous to science or religion.

Eighteenth Century ‘Prize Negroes’: From Britain To America, Charles R. Foy Sep 2010

Eighteenth Century ‘Prize Negroes’: From Britain To America, Charles R. Foy

Faculty Research & Creative Activity

Eighteenth-century Anglo-American prize systems were highly organized

enterprises for the provision of coerced labor. Offering whites opportunities to

participate in a lucrative market, they extended the reach of American slavery

beyond the shores of the Americas, reinforced slavery in North America and

greatly limited opportunities for freedom for black seamen. Although Americans

desired that their new nation provide greater individual liberty, the American prize

system applied the same presumption - that captured black mariners were slaves -

as had its British predecessor, resulting in the sale of hundreds of black seamen

into slavery.
