John Brown's Body

- Slavery, Violence, and the Culture of War

Bag om John Brown's Body

Franny Nudelman analyzes the idealization of mass death and explores ways of depicting the violence of war. Considering martyred soldiers in relation to suffering slaves, she argues that responses to wartime death cannot be fully understood without attention to the brutality directed against African Americans during the antebellum era.
