D. E. N. Southworth -- Herman Melville's Billy Budd: The legacy of antebellum anti-gallows literature.In Against the Gallows, Paul Christian Jones explores the intriguing cooperation of America's writers-including major figures such as Walt Whitman, John Greenleaf Whittier, E. D. E. N. Southworth, and Herman Melville-with reformers, politicians, clergymen, and periodical editors who attempted to end the practice of capital punishment in the United States during the 1840's and 1850's. In an age of passionate reform efforts, the antigallows movement enjoyed broad popularity, waging its campaign in legislatures, pulpits, newspapers, and literary journals.Literature and societyUnited StatesHistory19th centurySocial problems in literatureCapital punishment in literatureCapital punishmentMoral and ethical aspectsUnited StatesElectronic books.Literature and societyHistorySocial problems in literature.Capital punishment in literature.Capital punishmentMoral and ethical aspects810.9/3556Jones Paul C.1969-915835MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456685603321Against the gallows2053085UNINA01183nam0 22002891i 450 UON0008111420231205102429.8788-7021-759-020020107d1997 |0itac50 baitaIT|||| |||||Safari in AfricaRiconoscere i mammiferi delle savane africane e capire i loro comportamentiguida pratica al safariMarco LambertiniPadovaMuzzio1997278 p., c. e p. di tav.19 cm001UON000675892001 Scienze naturali.
