520 |a As in many literatures of the New World grappling with issues of slavery and freedom, stories of racial insurrection frequently coincided with stories of cross-racial romance in nineteenth-century U.S. print culture. This book explores how authors such as Harriet Jacobs, Elizabeth Livermore, and Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda imagined the expansion of race and gender-based rights as a hemispheric affair, drawing together the United States with Africa, Cuba, and other parts of the Caribbean. Placing less familiar women writers in conversation with their more famous contemporaries - Ralph Waldo Emerson, Margaret Fuller, and Lydia Maria Child - the author traces the transnational progress of freedom through the antebellum cultural fascination with cross-racial relationships and insurrections. Her book mines a variety of sources - fiction, political rhetoric, popular journalism, race science, and biblical treatises - to reveal a common concern: a future in which romance and rebellion engender radical social and political transformation.
