Disability, the Body, and Radical Intellectuals in the Literature of the Civil War and Reconstruction
Chinn, Sarah E. (Hunter College
Description
The book is a study of the ways that white radicals deployed the physical and literary image of amputation during the Civil War and Reconstruction to argue for full Black citizenship and against a national reconciliation that reimposed white supremacy. It gives readers a new way to think about the Civil War and Reconstruction.
