Zusammenfassung: | The story of freedom and all of its ambiguities begins with intimate acts steeped in power. It is shaped by the peculiar oppressions faced by African women and women of African descent. And it pivots on the self-conscious choices black women made to retain control over their bodies and selves, their loved ones, and their futures. Slavery's rise in the Americas was institutional, carnal, and reproductive. The intimacy of bondage whet the appetites of slaveowners, traders, and colonial officials with fantasies of domination that trickled into every social relationship-husband and wife, sovereign and subject, master and laborer. Intimacy-corporeal, carnal, "idian-tied slaves to slaveowners, women of African descent and their children to European and African men. In Wicked Flesh, Jessica Marie Johnson explores the nature of these complicated intimate and kinship ties and how they were used by black women to construct freedom in the Atlantic world.Johnson draws on archival documents scattered in institutions across three continents, written in multiple languages and largely from the perspective of colonial officials and slave-owning men, to recreate black women's experiences from coastal Senegal to French Saint-Domingue to Spanish Cuba to the swampy outposts of the Gulf Coast. Centering New Orleans as the quintessential site for investigating black women's practices of freedom in the Atlantic world, Wicked Flesh argues that African women and women of African descent endowed free status with meaning through active, aggressive, and sometimes unsuccessful intimate and kinship practices. Their stories, in both their successes and their failures, outline a practice of freedom that laid the groundwork for the emancipation struggles of the nineteenth century and reshaped the New World |

It is shaped by the peculiar oppressions faced by African women and women of African descent. And it pivots on the self-conscious choices black women made to retain control over their bodies and selves, their loved ones, and their futures. Slavery's rise in the Americas was institutional, carnal, and reproductive. The intimacy of bondage whet the appetites of slaveowners, traders, and colonial officials with fantasies of domination that trickled into every social relationship-husband and wife, sovereign and subject, master and laborer. Intimacy-corporeal, carnal, "idian-tied slaves to slaveowners, women of African descent and their children to European and African men. In Wicked Flesh, Jessica Marie Johnson explores the nature of these complicated intimate and kinship ties and how they were used by black women to construct freedom in the Atlantic world.Johnson draws on archival documents scattered in institutions across three continents, written in multiple languages and largely from the perspective of colonial officials and slave-owning men, to recreate black women's experiences from coastal Senegal to French Saint-Domingue to Spanish Cuba to the swampy outposts of the Gulf Coast. Centering New Orleans as the quintessential site for investigating black women's practices of freedom in the Atlantic world, Wicked Flesh argues that African women and women of African descent endowed free status with meaning through active, aggressive, and sometimes unsuccessful intimate and kinship practices. Their stories, in both their successes and their failures, outline a practice of freedom that laid the groundwork for the emancipation struggles of the nineteenth century and reshaped the New World Geschichte gnd rswk-swf African Studies African-American Studies American History American Studies HISTORY / United States / Revolutionary Period (1775-1800) bisacsh African American women Louisiana New Orleans History 18thcentury African American women Louisiana New Orleans Social conditions 18th century African Americans Kinship History 18th century African diaspora History 18th century Slave trade Social aspects Atlantic Ocean Region History 18thcentury Women, Black Atlantic Ocean Region History 18th century Women, Black Atlantic Ocean Region Social conditions 18th century Soziale Situation (DE-588)4077575-6 gnd rswk-swf Sklavin (DE-588)4204353-0 gnd rswk-swf Schwarze Frau (DE-588)4286929-8 gnd rswk-swf Atlantischer Raum (DE-588)4206638-4 gnd rswk-swf Atlantischer Raum (DE-588)4206638-4 g Schwarze Frau (DE-588)4286929-8 s Sklavin (DE-588)4204353-0 s Soziale Situation (DE-588)4077575-6 s Geschichte z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-0-8122-5238-5 https://doi.org/10.9783/9780812297249 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
