Herrera, Cassandra Jackson, Stacie McCormick, Maria Seger, Randi Lynn Tanglen, Brook Thomas, Michael C. Weisenburg, and Lisa Woolfork Reading Confederate Monuments addresses the urgent and vital need for scholars, educators, and the general public to be able to read and interpret the literal and cultural Confederate monuments pervading life in the contemporary United States. The literary and cultural studies scholars featured in this collection engage many different archives and methods, demonstrating how to read literal Confederate monuments as texts and in the context of the assortment of literatures that produced and celebrated them. They further explore how to read the literary texts advancing and contesting Confederate ideology in the US cultural imaginary-then and now-as monuments in and of themselves. On top of that, the essays published here lay bare the cultural and pedagogical work of Confederate monuments and counter-monuments-divulging how and what they teach their readers as communal and yet contested narratives-thereby showing why the persistence of Confederate monuments matters greatly to local and national notions of racial justice and belonging. In doing so, this collection illustrates what critics of US literature and culture can offer to ongoing scholarly and public discussions about Confederate monuments and memory. Even as we remove, relocate, and recontextualize the physical symbols of the Confederacy dotting the US landscape, the complicated histories, cultural products, and pedagogies of Confederate ideology remain embedded in the national consciousness. To disrupt and potentially dismantle these enduring narratives alongside the statues themselves, we must be able to recognize, analyze, and resist them in US life. The pieces in this collection position us to think deeply about how and why we should continue that work"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Soldiers' monuments $z Southern States $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Lost Cause mythology. 650 0 $a Collective memory in art. 650 0 $a Collective memory in literature. 651 0 $a United States $x Monuments. $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $x Monuments. 650 7 $a Collective memory in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01902843 650 7 $a Collective memory in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01902844 650 7 $a Lost Cause mythology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02028883 650 7 $a Monuments. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01025892 650 7 $a Soldiers' monuments. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01125348 651 7 $a Southern States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244550 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1861-1865 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Essays. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919922 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01986215 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Seger, Maria C., $e editor. $4 edt 700 1 $a Davis-McElligatt, Joanna, $e author of afterword. $4 aft 776 08 $i Online version: $t Reading Confederate monuments $d Jackson : University Press of Mississippi, 2022 $z 9781496841650 $w (DLC) 2022019452 941 $a 1 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20231021032027.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C6CA70A86FD711EE93D6B80232ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
