IDENTITY, DISSENT, AND THE ROOTS OF GEORGIA’S MIDDLE CLASS, 1848-1865 A Dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Arch Dalrymple III Department of History The University of Mississippi by THOMAS W. ROBINSON December 2018 Copyright © 2018 by Thomas W. Robinson All rights reserved. ABSTRACT This dissertation, which focuses on Georgia from 1848 until 1865, argues that a middle class formed in the state during the antebellum period. By the time secession occurred, the class coalesced around an ideology based upon modernization, industrialization, reform, occupation, politics, and northern influence. These factors led the doctors, lawyers, merchants, ministers, shopkeepers, and artisans who made up Georgia’s middle class to view themselves as different than Georgians above or below them on the economic scale. The feeling was often mutual, as the rich viewed the middle class as a threat due to their income and education level while the poor were envious of the middle class.

Lee referred to the American conflict of 1861 to 1865 as the “Civil War,” a correct term as he understood it. Etymologists now apply that term only to internal subversion used against a government, a better definition of the internal struggles of the Confederate States of America than its battlefield war for independence. Research in its societal “wars within a war” has been difficult because, while its many different parts can often be seen, how they interacted with the new southern government and each other has been difficult to study. Few individuals experienced, in any meaningful way, most of the strands of this secret history of the new nation.
