This fundamental fact has generally been overshadowed by popular and scholarly images of the plantation household as the source of slavery's redeeming qualities, where 'gentle' mistresses ministered to 'loyal' slaves. This book recounts a very different story. The very notion of a private sphere, as divorced from the immoral excesses of chattel slavery as from the amoral logic of market laws, functioned to conceal from public scrutiny the day-to-day struggles between enslaved women and their mistresses, subsumed within a logic of patriarchy. One of emancipation's unsung consequences was precisely the exposure to public view of the unbridgeable social distance between the women on whose labor the plantation household relied and the women who employed them. This is a story of race and gender, nation and citizenship, freedom and bondage in the nineteenth century South; a big abstract story that is composed of equally big personal stories. 606 $aPlantation life$zSouthern States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aEnslaved women$zSouthern States$xSocial conditions$y19th century 606 $aAfrican American women$zSouthern States$xSocial conditions$y19th century 606 $aPlantation owners' spouses$zSouthern States$xSocial conditions$y19th century 606 $aWomen, White$zSouthern States$xSocial conditions$y19th century 606 $aSocial distance$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aHouseholds$zSouthern States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPatriarchy$zSouthern States$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aSouthern States$xSocial life and customs$y1775-1865 607 $aSouthern States$xRace relations$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aPlantation life$xHistory 615 0$aEnslaved women$xSocial conditions 615 0$aAfrican American women$xSocial conditions 615 0$aPlantation owners' spouses$xSocial conditions 615 0$aWomen, White$xSocial conditions 615 0$aSocial distance$xHistory 615 0$aHouseholds$xHistory 615 0$aPatriarchy$xHistory 676 $a307.72082/097509034 700 $aGlymph$b Thavolia$f1951-$01489325 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782379103321 996 $aOut of the house of bondage$93710001 997 $aUNINA
