L. R. James and The Black Jacobins Rachel Douglas French and Comparative Literature, School of Modern Languages and Cultures, University of Glasgow, UK ABSTRACT KEYWORDS Exploring the genesis, transformation and afterlives of The Black Rewriting; Haitian Jacobins, this article follows the revision trail of James’s evolving Revolution; Toussaint interest in Toussaint Louverture. How does James “show” as Louverture; Caribbean; drama versus “tell” as history? Building on Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s theatre/drama; history from below idea of “silencing the past,” this article argues that James engages in an equally active and transitive reverse process of unsilencing the past. James’s own unsilencing of certain negative representations of the Haitian Revolution is evaluated, as is James’s move away from presenting the colonized as passive objects, instead turning them instead into active subjects. -

The Shadow of Napoleon Upon Lee at Gettysburg
Papers of the 2017 Gettysburg National Military Park Seminar The Shadow of Napoleon upon Lee at Gettysburg Charles Teague Every general commanding an army hopes to win the next battle. Some will dream that they might accomplish a decisive victory, and in this Robert E. Lee was no different. By the late spring of 1863 he already had notable successes in battlefield trials. But now, over two years into a devastating war, he was looking to destroy the military force that would again oppose him, thereby assuring an end to the war to the benefit of the Confederate States of America. In the late spring of 1863 he embarked upon an audacious plan that necessitated a huge vulnerability: uncovering the capital city of Richmond. His speculation, which proved prescient, was that the Union army that lay between the two capitals would be directed to pursue and block him as he advanced north Robert E. Lee, 1865 (LOC) of the Potomac River. He would thereby draw it out of entrenched defensive positions held along the Rappahannock River and into the open, stretched out by marching. He expected that force to risk a battle against his Army of Northern Virginia, one that could bring a Federal defeat such that the cities of Philadelphia, Baltimore, or Washington might succumb, morale in the North to continue the war would plummet, and the South could achieve its true independence. One of Lee’s major generals would later explain that Lee told him in the march to battle of his goal to destroy the Union army. -

Outlyers: Maroons and Marronage in Eighteenth and Nineteenth-Century Literature
Outlyers: Maroons and Marronage in Eighteenth and Nineteenth-Century Literature By Sarah Jessica Johnson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Stephen Best, Chair Professor Kathleen Donegan Professor Nadia Ellis Professor Karl Britto Spring 2018 1 Abstract Outlyers: Maroons and Marronage in Eighteenth and Nineteenth-Century Literature By Sarah Jessica Johnson Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Berkeley Professor Stephen Best, Chair My dissertation, “Outlyers: Maroons and Marronage in Eighteenth and Nineteenth-Century Literature,” foregrounds an archival pursuit in which recovery is deprioritized. Crucial to this study is an archival paradox: Maroons absented themselves from the printed record, eschewed the position of author, only to be figured and represented by others who, expectedly, struggled with the depiction of a practice they could not know firsthand. The intentional erasure of “traces” by maroons was necessary to the successful practice of marronage. The project is organized around four “maroon objects”—the portrait, the fetish, the epaulette, and the hatchet—that recur in historical representations concerning maroons. These maroon objects mediate maroon subject and text. My first chapter, “Maroon Portraits,” examines the circulating narratives of La Mulâtresse Solitude of Guadeloupe. Solitude sits for a portrait that is continuously painted, as artists insist on producing visual images in tension with the long textual record that precedes them. Chapter Two, “Maroon Fetishes,” reads the proliferation of fetishes in Le Macandal by Marie Augustin and other iterations of the story of Haitian Maroon leader François Macandal. -

The Traje De Berberisca: an Encoded Dress
The Traje de Berberisca: an Encoded Dress By Dr. Yaëlle Azagury As a little girl, I often asked my mother in Spanish -I grew up in Tangier where Jews spoke a Spanish meshed with Judeo-Spanish: “Que me pongo hoy mama?”. Mother, what should I wear today? Invariably she gave me an enigmatic answer: “El traje de oro y de plata”. This threw me each time into the agonies of an elaborate speculation. What did she really mean by “the gold and silver gown”? I was an avid reader of fairy tales, so one came to mind. In Grimm’s the Ass’s Skin, the princess asks her father for three dresses: one the color of Time, the second one color of the Moon, and the third the color of the Sun. Neither requests is meant to be fulSilled. How can one make a moon- color dress? Or a sun-color dress? Or for that matter, how could one even fathom a dress of gold and silver? I was invariably puzzled. One day, though, I found out the “traje de oro y de plata” existed not merely as an imaginary riddle for inquisitive little girls . It was the traje de berberisca, or keswa-el-kbira (grand costume) as it is called in Arabic (Figure 1). Figure 1: traje de berberisca. 19th century. Rabat © 2012 Yaëlle Azagury 1 Despite its name which refers to a Berber dress, the traje de berberisca, an elaborate eight-piece costume still worn nowadays by Moroccan Jewish brides on the eve of their wedding during the noche de berberisca as it is called in the North of Morocco, or Lilat el henna, in the South, is originally inspired by the luxurious styles of the Spanish courts and Arab Caliphates of the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance1.
