Negotiated Empires:
Centers and Peripheries in the Americas, 1500-1820
Ed: Christine Daniels
http://www.routledge-ny.com/support/normal/hottop.html
This
innovative volume brings together original essays by leading
historians of the Atlantic World,
representing the latest developments in historiography of the
period. The volume takes a comparative
approach, with individual essays examining governance in British,
Portuguese, French, Dutch and Native America.
As a whole, these essays present the argument that coercive
imperial authority has been vastly overrated in previous
scholarship due to factors like distance, the primacy of trade
over politics, and the refusal of "colonized" peoples
to
recognize European authority.While some of the essays look at the
relationships between imperial centers and colonial
peripheries, others examine interactions and experiences of
people at the peripheries of their respective empires, including
Native Americans, African Americans and Euroamericans. No other
book collects essays on the New World empires in
one volume.

Pamphlets of Protest:
An Anthology of Early African-American Protest Literature,
1790-1860
Edited by Richard Newman, Patrick Rael, Philip Lapansky
Between the Revolution and the Civil War,
African-American writing became a
prominent feature of both black protest culture and American
public life. Although
denied a political voice in national affairs, black authors
produced a wide range of
literature to project their views into the public sphere.
Autobiographies and
personal narratives told of slavery's horrors, newspapers railed
against racism
in its various forms, and poetry, novellas, reprinted sermons and
speeches told tales
of racial uplift and redemption.
The editors examine the important and previously overlooked
pamphleteering
tradition and offer new insights into how and why the printed
word became so
important to black activists during this critical period. An
introduction by the
editors situates the pamphlets in their various social, economic
and political
contexts. This is the first book to capture the depth of black
print culture before the
Civil War by examining perhaps its most important form, the
pamphlet.
