Honor and Slavery: Lies, Duels, Noses, Masks, Dressing as a Woman, Gifts, Strangers, Humanitarianism, Death, Slave Rebellions, the Proslavery Argument, Baseball, Hunting, and Gambling in the Old South
Kenneth S. Greenberg
The 'honorable men' who ruled the Old South had a language that comprised apparently outlandish features, yet revealed much about the lives of masters and the nature of slavery. This book demonstrates the language of honor that embraced a system of phrases, gestures, and behaviors centered on values, asserting authority and maintaining respect.
