The book enriches our understanding of French and Atlantic history in the revolutionary and postrevolutionary years when Haiti was menaced with the re-establishment of slavery and when class, race, and gender identities were being renegotiated. It offers in-depth readings of works by Germaine de StaeI?l, Claire de Duras, and Marceline Desbordes-Valmore. In addition to these now canonical French authors, it calls attention to the lives and works of two lesser-known but important figuresI??"Charlotte Dard and Sophie Doin. Approaching these five women through the prism of paternal authority, Fathers, Daughters, and Slaves explores the empathy that daughters show toward blacks as well as their resistance against the oppression exercised by male colonists and other authority figures. The works by these French women antislavery writers bear significant similarities, which the book explores, with twentieth and twenty-first century Francophone texts. These womenI???s contributions allow us to move beyond the traditional boundaries of exclusively male accounts by missionaries, explorers, functionaries, and military or political figures. They remind us of the imperative for ever-renewed gender research in the colonial archive and the need to expand conceptions of French womenI???s writing in the nineteenth century as being a small minority corpus. Fathers, Daughters, and Slaves contributes to an understanding of colonial fiction, Caribbean writing, romanticism, and feminism. It undercuts neat distinctions between the cultures of France and its colonies and between nineteenth and twentieth-century Francophone writing. 410 0$aLiverpool Studies in International Slavery 517 3 $aFathers, Daughters, & Slaves 606 $aFrench literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aWomen and literature$zFrance$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aSlavery in literature 606 $aFathers in literature 615 0$aFrench literature$xWomen authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aWomen and literature$xHistory 615 0$aSlavery in literature. 615 0$aFathers in literature. 676 $a840.935262509034 700 $aKadish$b Doris Y.$01694832 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817469303321 996 $aFathers, daughters, and slaves$94073645 997 $aUNINA
