| Zusammenfassung: | "Civil War historians have built a voluminous catalog of common soldier studies and a burgeoning literature on veterans. Bradley Clampitt's history of Confederate demobilization adds to that historiography by examining the interlude between soldier and veteran for the first time in a comprehensive way. In doing so, he reveals how defeat and discharge from the military reinforced Confederate identity. Southern veterans who marched home in the spring and summer of 1865 had survived severe trauma-combat, camp life, privations, homesickness, death of comrades, destruction of homelands-before the catastrophe of defeat added to that litany of suffering. They had endured the crucible of war and now confronted the unknown, where an uncertain future greeted them. Suddenly civilians again, the men grappled with the consequences of their service and momentarily ambiguous place in southern society. Clampitt examines the mental state of the returning former soldiers, suggesting that images of intense material shortages and the devastation of war conditioned the minds of the men as they coped with loss and confronted a revolutionized society. Three themes dominated their thoughts upon homecoming-immediate economic survival, a radically altered relationship with freedpeople, and life under Federal rule-all against the backdrop of fearful uncertainty. Clampitt presents a detailed examination of their demobilization experiences, tracing the most common routes home and methods of travel before scrutinizing the interaction between veterans in blue and gray and between Confederate veterans and southern civilians. Finally, he chronicles the widespread lawlessness that plagued the immediate postwar South and the returning soldiers' roles in that turmoil. Ultimately, Clampitt concludes, the war and defeat solidified Confederate soldiers' common principles and rendered them perpetual Rebels: loss and demobilization reinforced that identity and hardened the recalcitrant, unapologetic attitudes of southern veterans, who remained "Confederate" despite permanent demobilization and the demise of the Confederacy. Clampitt's study is a welcome addition to the history of Confederate veterans and is certain to be of widespread interest to scholars of the war and its aftermath"-- |

Bradley Clampitt's history of Confederate demobilization adds to that historiography by examining the interlude between soldier and veteran for the first time in a comprehensive way. In doing so, he reveals how defeat and discharge from the military reinforced Confederate identity. Southern veterans who marched home in the spring and summer of 1865 had survived severe trauma-combat, camp life, privations, homesickness, death of comrades, destruction of homelands-before the catastrophe of defeat added to that litany of suffering. They had endured the crucible of war and now confronted the unknown, where an uncertain future greeted them. Suddenly civilians again, the men grappled with the consequences of their service and momentarily ambiguous place in southern society. Clampitt examines the mental state of the returning former soldiers, suggesting that images of intense material shortages and the devastation of war conditioned the minds of the men as they coped with loss and confronted a revolutionized society. Three themes dominated their thoughts upon homecoming-immediate economic survival, a radically altered relationship with freedpeople, and life under Federal rule-all against the backdrop of fearful uncertainty. Clampitt presents a detailed examination of their demobilization experiences, tracing the most common routes home and methods of travel before scrutinizing the interaction between veterans in blue and gray and between Confederate veterans and southern civilians. Finally, he chronicles the widespread lawlessness that plagued the immediate postwar South and the returning soldiers' roles in that turmoil. Ultimately, Clampitt concludes, the war and defeat solidified Confederate soldiers' common principles and rendered them perpetual Rebels: loss and demobilization reinforced that identity and hardened the recalcitrant, unapologetic attitudes of southern veterans, who remained "Confederate" despite permanent demobilization and the demise of the Confederacy. Clampitt's study is a welcome addition to the history of Confederate veterans and is certain to be of widespread interest to scholars of the war and its aftermath"-- Geschichte 1865 gnd rswk-swf Politische Identität (DE-588)4129611-4 gnd rswk-swf Demobilmachung (DE-588)4324477-4 gnd rswk-swf Veteran (DE-588)4188196-5 gnd rswk-swf Niederlage (DE-588)4291333-0 gnd rswk-swf Militär (DE-588)4039305-7 gnd rswk-swf Soziale Situation (DE-588)4077575-6 gnd rswk-swf USA Südstaaten (DE-588)4078674-2 gnd rswk-swf Confederate States of America / Army / Demobilization Veterans / Confederate States of America / History United States / History / Civil War, 1861-1865 / Veterans United States / History / Civil War, 1861-1865 / Social aspects Veterans / United States / History / 19th century United States / History / Civil War, 1861-1865 / Psychological aspects Southern States / Social conditions / History / 19th century Reconstruction (U.S. history, 1865-1877) Anciens combattants / États confédérés d'Amérique / Histoire États-Unis / Histoire / 1861-1865 (Guerre de Sécession) / Anciens combattants États-Unis / Histoire / 1861-1865 (Guerre de Sécession) / Aspect social Anciens combattants / États-Unis / Histoire / 19e siècle États-Unis / Histoire / 1861-1865 (Guerre de Sécession) / Aspect psychologique États-Unis (Sud) / Conditions sociales / Histoire / 19e siècle Confederate States of America / Army Armed Forces / Demobilization Psychological aspects Social aspects Social conditions Veterans Southern States United States United States / Confederate States of America 1800-1899 History USA Südstaaten (DE-588)4078674-2 g Militär (DE-588)4039305-7 s Niederlage (DE-588)4291333-0 s Demobilmachung (DE-588)4324477-4 s Veteran (DE-588)4188196-5 s Soziale Situation (DE-588)4077575-6 s Politische Identität (DE-588)4129611-4 s Geschichte 1865 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, PDF 978-0-8071-7765-5 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe 978-0-8071-7766-2 |
