A man by any other name: William Clarke Quantrill and the search for American manhood
"Few men of the Civil War era were as complicated or infamous as William Clarke Quantrill. Most who know him recognize him as the architect of the Confederate guerrilla raid on Lawrence, Kansas in August of 1863 that led to the murder of 180 mostly unarmed men and boys. Before that, though, Qua...

| Zusammenfassung: | "Few men of the Civil War era were as complicated or infamous as William Clarke Quantrill. Most who know him recognize him as the architect of the Confederate guerrilla raid on Lawrence, Kansas in August of 1863 that led to the murder of 180 mostly unarmed men and boys. Before that, though, Quantrill led a transient life, shifting from one masculine form to another. He played the role of fastidious schoolmaster, rough frontiersman, and even confidence man developing certain notions and skills on his way to becoming a pro-slavery bushwhacker. Quantrill remains impossible to categorize, a man whose motivations have been difficult to pin down. Using new documents and old documents examined in new ways, A Man By Any Other Name paints the most authentic portrait of Quantrill yet rendered. The detailed study of this man explores an enigmatic figure - one of a kind - but also allows us entry into many representative experiences of the Civil War generation. This picture brings to life a unique vision of antebellum life in the territories as well as a fresh view of guerrilla warfare on the border. Of even greater consequence, seeing Quantrill in this way allows us to examine the essence of American manhood in the mid-nineteenth century." |
