  • Duelling in America, Ed
    Violence, Masculinity, Image, and Reality on the Antebellum Frontier RYAN L. DEARINGER It is a permanent and universal interest of mankind that men should not kill each other; but the particular and momentary interest of a nation or class may in certain cases make homicide excusable or even honorable. Honor is nothing but this particular rule, based on a par- ticular state ofsociety, by means of which a people distributes praise or blame. -ALEXIS DE TOCQUEVILLE ocqueville, perhaps the most prophetic and certainly the most cited T nineteenth-century foreign observer of American life, had more to say about the image, reality, and significance of violence than scholars have rec- ognized. Like many of his contemporaries who observed Jacksonian America, he was puzzled by the ambiguous relationship between honor, violence, and social class, particularly as it played out in the ritual of the duel. The refusal of a challenge to duel, Tocqueville noted, was the only act he knew to be considered both honorable and dishonorable. Viewing Ryan L.

  • A Survey of Duelling in the United States
    The Woman's College of The University of North Carolina LIBRARY COLLEGE COLLECTION CQ no. 652 Gift of MARTIN LUTHER WILSON " WILSON, MARTIN LUTHER. A Survey of Duelling in the United States. (1969). Directed by: Dr» Richard Bardolph. pp. t2» This thesis was undertaken to study duelling as an aspect of social history in the United States. The aim of the researciier was to go beyond mere cnronicling of particu- lar duels, in an effort to ascertain feelings and attitudes toward the practice. To obtain such information, both pub- lished and unpublished sources were consulted, to reconstruct the story of duelling as it developed in America. The duel grew out of European practices, particularly the chivalry associated with knighthood. The custom was later transported to America by European settlers, though few duels occurred before the American Revolution. The presence of aristocratic European officers in America during that con- flict influenced natives, who retained the duelling custom. The duel was present in all sections of the new nation until Aaron Burr killed Alexander Hamilton in 160^-. At that point the duel lost favor in the Northern states, but held on pri- marily in the Southern states. Northern political leaders and military men continued to duel from time to time, however. For conducting the duelling ritual, there were various sets of written rules, the most widely used being those compiled by Governor John Lyde Wilson of South Carolina. These rules laid down the principles that duels should be only betv/een social equals, that all negotiations be con- ducted by seconds chosen for that purpose, and that the ( actual encounter be carried out fairly under rules agreed upon beforehand.

This model of settler colonialism was soon exported to the New World and spawned a range of social institutions and cultural artifacts, including a genre of literature. While plantation fiction seemed to reach the height of its popularity in the United States after emancipation, the genre was revived in the twentieth century by Irish, Caribbean, and American writers. Indeed, the genre was revised with surprising frequency by modernists from a wide variety of national and cultural backgrounds, including Elizabeth Bowen, Liam O‘Flaherty, Jean Rhys, Claude McKay, Eric Walrond, Arna Bontemps, and of course, William Faulkner.
