Counterfactuals, Causation, and the Tenses of "Separate but Equal" -- Conclusion: The Rules of the Game -- Notes -- IndexIn this study of literature and law before and since the Civil War, Stephen M. Best shows how American conceptions of slavery, property, and the idea of the fugitive were profoundly interconnected. The Fugitive's Properties uncovers a poetics of intangible, personified property emerging out of antebellum laws, circulating through key nineteenth-century works of literature, and informing cultural forms such as blackface minstrelsy and early race films. Best also argues that legal principles dealing with fugitives and indebted persons provided a sophisticated precursor to intellectual property law as it dealt with rights in appearance, expression, and other abstract aspects of personhood. In this conception of property as fleeting, indeed fugitive, American law preserved for much of the rest of the century slavery's most pressing legal imperative: the production of personhood as a market commodity. By revealing the paradoxes of this relationship between fugitive slave law and intellectual property law, Best helps us to understand how race achieved much of its force in the American cultural imagination. A work of ambitious scope and compelling cross-connections, The Fugitive's Properties sets new agendas for scholars of American literature and legal culture.American literature19th centuryHistory and criticismSlavery in literatureFugitive slavesLegal status, laws, etcUnited StatesLaw and literatureHistory19th centuryAfrican Americans in literatureFugitive slaves in literatureProperty in literatureRace in literatureElectronic books.American literatureHistory and criticism.Slavery in literature.Fugitive slavesLegal status, laws, etc.Law and literatureHistoryAfrican Americans in literature.Fugitive slaves in literature.Property in literature.Race in literature.810.9/3552Best Stephen Michael885264MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459335503321The fugitive's properties1976594UNINA03244nam 2200601 450 991046020450332120200520144314.092-4-069209-6(CKB)3710000000245153(EBL)1809072(SSID)ssj0001350668(PQKBManifestationID)12602562(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001350668(PQKBWorkID)11288473(PQKB)11378723(MiAaPQ)EBC1809072(Au-PeEL)EBL1809072(CaPaEBR)ebr10931313(OCoLC)892246016(EXLCZ)99371000000024515320140920d2013 uy| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrSafety evaluation of certain food additives and contaminants /prepared by the Seventy-seventh meeting of the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Addivities (JECFA)Geneva :World Health Organization,2013.1 online resource (144 p.)WHO food additives series,0300-0923 ;68Description based upon print version of record.92-4-166068-6 Includes bibliographical references.Cover; Contents; Preface; Specific food additives; Advantame; 1.
