And what is that law but an expression of public opinion? And if public opinion be brutal and thou a component part thereof, art thou not the hangman's accomplice?" Writing in 1842, Lydia Maria Child articulates a crisis in the relationship of democracy to sovereign power that continues to occupy political theory today. Is sovereignty, with its reliance on singular and exceptional power, fundamentally inimical to democracy? Or might a more fully realized democracy distribute, share, and popularize sovereignty, thus blunting its exceptional character and its basic violence? In Democracy's Spectacle, Jennifer Greiman looks to an earlier moment in the history of American democracy's vexed interpretation of sovereignty to argue that such questions about the popularization of sovereign power shaped debates about political belonging and public life in the antebellum United States. In an emergent democracy that was also an expansionist slave society, Greiman argues, the problems that sovereignty posed were less concerned with a singular and exceptional power lodged in the state than with a power over life and death that involved all Americans intimately.Drawing on Alexis de Tocqueville's analysis of the sovereignty of the people in Democracy in America, along with work by Gustave de Beaumont, Lydia Maria Child, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Herman Melville, Greiman tracks the crises of sovereign power as it migrates out of the state to become a constitutive feature of the public sphere. Greiman brings together literature and political theory, as well as materials on antebellum performance culture, antislavery activism, and penitentiary reform, to argue that the antebellum public sphere, transformed by its empowerment, emerges as a spectacle with investments in both punishment and entertainment. 606 $aAmerican literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPolitics and literature$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aDemocracy in literature 606 $aSovereignty in literature 606 $aLiterature and society$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aDemocracy$xPsychological aspects 615 0$aAmerican literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPolitics and literature$xHistory 615 0$aDemocracy in literature. 615 0$aSovereignty in literature. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aDemocracy$xPsychological aspects. 676 $a810.9/358735 700 $aGreiman$b Jennifer$01601054 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827156303321 996 $aDemocracy's spectacle$93924470 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02428nas# 22003971i 450 001 UON00273398 005 20231205103804.381 011 $a1827--5494 100 $a20060216a2004 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| ||||| 110 $aaX||||||||| 200 1 $aAgoge$eAtti della Scuola di Specializzazione in Archeologia$fUniversita' di Pisa 205 $a1(2004)- 207 $aPisa : Edizioni PLUS-Universita di Pisa, 2004- 210 $av.$cill. ; 30 cm 215 $aAnnuale 316 $aUni di Pisa Cambio Archeologico$5IT-UONSI PER A007606-07/2009/2010 316 $aUni di Pisa$5IT-UONSI PER A007608-09/2011/2012 316 $aProf.ssa M.
