| Zusammenfassung: | The Good Body: Normalizing Visions in Nineteenth-Century American Literature and Culture, 1836-1867 examines literary and cultural representations of so-called "normal" and "abnormal" bodies in the antebellum and Civil War-era United States and the ways in which these representations operated as a means of justifying, critiquing, and problematizing prominent concerns of the period: the relationship between the health of American citizens and national progress, Western expansion, debates over slavery, the threatened dissolution of the Union in the Civil War, and the legitimation of the post-war reunified nation. Considering a wide range of sources--classic works of non-fiction, fiction, and poetry; health reform textbooks; proslavery documents; photographs of Civil War veterans; and Civil War medical records of the federal government--this study demonstrates that American literature of this period typically imagined real and fictional bodies as healthy, aesthetically pleasing, and symbolically coherent in relation to other bodies imagined as deviating from these "norms" to preserve existing political and social orders but also, at times, to challenge the hegemonic power of US institutions. In addition to the literary material considered, central in this book are critical approaches to history and disability studies which illuminate the construction of physical "normality" and contribute to recent scholarly attempts to assess the significance of physical differences in the literature and culture of the United States |

Etter Normalizing visions in nineteenth-century American literature and culture, 1836-1867 Newcastle upon Tyne : Cambridge Scholars, 2010 ©2010 1 online resource (308 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier The Good Body: Normalizing Visions in Nineteenth-Century American Literature and Culture, 1836-1867 examines literary and cultural representations of so-called "normal" and "abnormal" bodies in the antebellum and Civil War-era United States and the ways in which these representations operated as a means of justifying, critiquing, and problematizing prominent concerns of the period: the relationship between the health of American citizens and national progress, Western expansion, debates over slavery, the threatened dissolution of the Union in the Civil War, and the legitimation of the post-war reunified nation. Considering a wide range of sources--classic works of non-fiction, fiction, and poetry; health reform textbooks; proslavery documents; photographs of Civil War veterans; and Civil War medical records of the federal government--this study demonstrates that American literature of this period typically imagined real and fictional bodies as healthy, aesthetically pleasing, and symbolically coherent in relation to other bodies imagined as deviating from these "norms" to preserve existing political and social orders but also, at times, to challenge the hegemonic power of US institutions. In addition to the literary material considered, central in this book are critical approaches to history and disability studies which illuminate the construction of physical "normality" and contribute to recent scholarly attempts to assess the significance of physical differences in the literature and culture of the United States Includes bibliographical references (pages 291-305) and index "The good body" -- "A wonderful fitness of body and mind" : Emerson's transcendent corpus -- African-American slave narratives and the physical challenges of proslavery thought -- Constructing the disabled soldier in Civil War America -- In the tracks of the Jesuits : Francis Parkman's histories and the power of damaged bodies English.
