Abstract

This book is a study of faction, lynching, murder, terror and counter-terror during the French Revolution. It examines factionalism in small towns like Aubagne near Marseille, and how this produced the murders and prison massacres of 1795-8. Another major theme is the convergence of lynching from below with official terror from above. Although the terror may have been designed to solve a national emergency in the spring of 1793, in southern France it permitted one faction to continue a struggle against its enemies, a struggle that had begun earlier over local issues like taxation and governance. It uses the techniques of micro-history to tell the story of the small town of Aubagne. It then extends the scope to places nearby like Marseille, Arles, and Aix-en-Provence. Along the way, it illuminates familiar topics like the activity of clubs and revolutionary tribunals and then explores largely unexamined areas like lynching, the sociology of faction, the emergence of theories of violent fraternal democracy, and the nature of the White Terror.

Abstract

"Chasse aux esclaves fugitifs, aux Peaux-Rouges, aux peaux noires; chasse aux pauvres, aux exilés, aux apatrides, aux Juifs, aux sans-papiers: l'histoire des chasses à l'homme est une grille de lecture de la longue histoire de la violence des dominants. Ces chasses ne se résument pas à des techniques de traque et de capture : elles nécessitent de tracer des lignes de démarcation parmi les êtres humains pour savoir qui est chassable et qui ne l'est pas. Aux proies, on ne refuse pas l'appartenance à l'espèce humaine : simple-ment, ce n'est pas la même forme d'humanité. Mais la relation de chasse n'est jamais à l'abri d'un retournement de situation, où les proies se rassemblent et se font chasseurs à leur tour. Si la chasse à l'homme remonte à la nuit des temps, c'est avec l'expansion du capitalisme qu'elle s'étend et se rationalise. En Occident, " de vastes chasses aux pauvres concourent à la formation du salariat et à la montée en puissance d'un pouvoir de police dont les opérations de traque se trouvent liées à des dispositifs d'enfermement... Le grand pouvoir chasseur, qui déploie ses filets à une échelle jusque-là inconnue dans l'histoire de l'humanité, c'est celui du capital ".--p. 4 of cover

Abstract

In the late nineteenth century, the stereotype of the black male as sexual beast functioned for white supremacists as an externalized symbol of social chaos against which all whites would unite for the purpose of national renewal. The emergence of this stereotype in American culture and literature during and after Reconstruction was related to the growth of white-on-black violence, as white lynch mobs acted in ""defense"" of white womanhood, the white family, and white nationalism. In Writing a Red Record Sandra Gunning investigates American literary encounters with the conditions, processes,
