Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. First Edition. First edition. An exceptional copy. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 2020 Hard Cover. ix, [3], 291 pp. Extensive index follows text. A panoramic collection of essays written by both established and emerging scholars, American Discord examines critical aspects of the Civil War era, including rhetoric and nationalism, politics and violence, gender, race, and religion. Beginning with an overview of the political culture of the 1860s, the collection reveals that most Americans entered the decade opposed to political compromise. Essays from Megan L. Bever, Glenn David Brasher, Lawrence A. Kreiser Jr., and Christian McWhirter discuss the rancorous political climate of the day and the sense of racial superiority woven into the political fabric of the era. Shifting focus to the actual war, Rachel K. Deale, Lindsay Rae Privette, Adam H. Petty, and A. Wilson Greene contribute essays on internal conflict, lack of compromise, and commitment to white supremacy. Here, contributors adopt a broad understanding of "battle," considering environmental effects and the impact of the war after the battles were over. Essays by Laura Mammina and Charity Rakestraw and Kristopher A. Teters reveal that while the war blurred the boundaries, it ultimately prompted Americans to grasp for the familiar established hierarchies of gender and race. Examinations of chaos and internal division suggest that the political culture of Reconstruction was every bit as contentious as the war itself. Former Confederates decried the barbarity of their Yankee conquerors, while Republicans portrayed Democrats as backward rubes in need of civilizing. Essays by Kevin L. Hughes, Daniel J. Burge, T. Robert Hart, John F. Marszalek, and T. Michael Parrish highlight Americans' continued reliance on hyperbolic rhetoric. American Discord embraces a multifaceted view of the Civil War and its aftermath, attempting to capture the complicated human experiences of the men and women caught in the conflict. These essays acknowledge that ordinary people and their experiences matter, and the dynamics among family members, friends, and enemies have far-reaching consequences.

Vue du Palais Royal à Amsterdam, ets en aquatint uitgegeven door J.L. van Bever rond 1825. In de tijd met de hand gekleurd, met latere toevoegingen. Afm.: 49,5 x 76,5 cm. In de Franse Tijd besloot Lodewijk Napoleon het voormalige stadhuis op de om te bouwen tot Koninklijk Paleis. Hij liet daarbij diverse aanpassingen doen, waaronder de toevoeging van het balkon aan de voorzijde van het paleis. Omdat het zijn uitzicht zou belemmeren, liet hij toen ook de Waag -die midden op de Dam stond- verwijderen. Op de voorgrond veel activiteiten, zoals groenteverkoopsters, een schoenpoetser, een wandelstokverkoper, een vertrekkende postkoets, een kruier. Links op de hoek met de toenmalige Beurssteeg een verkoopster van het Hoeden Magazijn die voor haar winkel klanten groet. De prent is vervaardigd in de tijd van het Verenigd Koninkrijk der Nederlanden, de periode tussen de Franse Tijd en de Belgische Revolutie. Misschien werd de prent gemaakt om het aanzien van de nieuwe koning WIllem I te bestendigen. Als staatshoofd had hij een paleis op de Dam in Amsterdam en een in Brussel waar om het jaar de regering zetelde. Beide paleizen werden op deze manier fraai vastgelegd. Het waren magere jaren voor Amsterdam. Van de glorie uit de zogenaamde 'Gouden Eeuw' was weinig meer over. De handel en scheepvaart in de Amsterdamse haven was sterk afgenomen. De toegangsroutes waren verzand, er waren oorlogen met Frankrijk met Engeland en ook het embargo van Engelse producten op het Europese vaste land, had tot gevolg dat de ooit zo bloeiende haven bijna kon worden gesloten. Pas met de opening van het door koning Willem I geïnitieerde Noordhollandsch Kanaal in 1824 nam het scheepvaartverkeer van en naar Amsterdam weer toe en klimt de stad langzaam weer uit het dal.

Vue de la Place Royale Bruxelles etching with aquatint created around 1825 by Johann Nepomuk Gibèle based on a drawing by C. Janssens (the figures by Jean Baptiste Madou). Size: (image) 50.8 x 80 cm (including text 58.5 x 80 cm). We see the Place Royale in Brussels, built in neoclassical style in 1776 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the reign of governor Charles of Lorraine. On the left are the buildings of the Hotel Coudenberg, with the Saint-Jacques-sur-Coudenberg church in the center. Across the square on the left is the Hôtel de Templeuve (at that time the residence of Countess Brigitte of Tirimont-Templeuve, from 1865 known as the 'Palais du Comte de Flandre'), and opposite the Hôtel des Brasseurs, the headquarters of the brewers' guild (now part of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts). The building next to it, in the right-hand corner, is the Hôtel du Lotto, built as the seat of the Imperial and Royal Lottery, now the Magritte Museum. The colonnade in the center on the opposite side of the square was removed in 1827 to make way for the construction of the Rue de la Régence/Regentschapstraat. This print was made during turbulent times. The Belgians were dissatisfied and working towards the independence of their country, which became fact in 1830. Yet, there is nothing to suggest revolution; the square exudes serenity, and people seem to pass through the city carefree. Perhaps it was propaganda commissioned by the patron of this beautiful and large view' Price: Euro 1.250,-.
