Starting with a long view across the temporal and spatial boundaries of world slavery, he traces continuities from the ancient world to the era of exploration, with its expanding markets and rise in consumption of such products as sugar, tobacco, spices, and chocolate, to the conditions of the New World settlement that gave rise to a dependence on the forced labor of millions of African slaves. With the American Revolution, slavery crossed another kind of boundary, in a psychological inversion that placed black slaves outside the dream of liberty and equality--and turned them into the Great American Problem. Davis then delves into a single year, 1819, to explain how an explosive conflict over the expansion and legitimacy of slavery, together with reinterpretations of the Bible and the Constitution, pointed toward revolutionary changes in American culture. Finally, he widens the angle again, in a regional perspective, to discuss the movement to colonize blacks outside the United States, the African-American impact on abolitionism, and the South's response to slave emancipation in the British Caribbean, which led to attempts to morally vindicate slavery and export it into future American states. Challenging the boundaries of slavery ultimately brought on the Civil War and the unexpected, immediate emancipation of slaves long before it could have been achieved in any other way. This imaginative and fascinating book puts slavery into a brilliant new light and underscores anew the desperate human tragedy lying at the very heart of the American story.Regions & Countries - AmericasHILCCHistory & ArchaeologyHILCCUnited States - GeneralHILCCRegions & Countries - AmericasHistory & ArchaeologyUnited States - General306.3/62/0973Davis David Brion127695PQKBBOOK9910454938103321Challenging the Boundaries of Slavery2490464UNINA00855nam0 22002411i 450 UON0015584120231205102941.62720020215d1975 |0itac50 baurdPK|||| 1||||ChatnarQatil Shafa'iLahaur[s.n.]1975112 p.22 cmPKLahoreUONL000599SI VI DCSUBCONT.

Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing,2194-5365 ;12173-030-51827-2 Includes bibliographical references and index.This book addresses emerging issues in usability, interface design, human–computer interaction, user experience and assistive technology. It highlights research aimed at understanding human interactions with products, services and systems and focuses on finding effective approaches for improving the user experience. It also discusses key issues in designing and providing assistive devices and services for individuals with disabilities or impairment, offering them support with mobility, communication, positioning, environmental control and daily living. The book covers modeling as well as innovative design concepts, with a special emphasis on user-centered design, and design for specific populations, particularly the elderly. Further topics include virtual reality, digital environments, gaming, heuristic evaluation and forms of device interface feedback (e.g. visual and haptic). Based on the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Usability and User Experience, the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Human Factors and Assistive Technology, the AHFE Virtual Conference on Human Factors and Wearable Technologies, and the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Virtual Environments and Game Design, held on July 16–20, 2020, it provides academics and professionals with an extensive source of information and a timely guide to tools, applications and future challenges in these fields.Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing,2194-5365 ;1217Biomedical engineeringUser interfaces (Computer systems)Human-computer interactionVirtual realityAugmented realityEducational technologyComputer gamesProgrammingBiomedical Devices and InstrumentationUser Interfaces and Human Computer InteractionVirtual and Augmented RealityDigital Education and Educational TechnologyGame DevelopmentBiomedical engineering.User interfaces (Computer systems).Human-computer interaction.Virtual reality.Augmented reality.Educational technology.Computer gamesProgramming.Biomedical Devices and Instrumentation.User Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction.Virtual and Augmented Reality.Digital Education and Educational Technology.Game Development.620.82Ahram Tareqedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtFalcão Christianneedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910411936803321Advances in Usability, User Experience, Wearable and Assistive Technology2511373UNINA
