Raboteau & Elkins/2 Views of Slavery
Number of pages:
9
ABSTRACT:
A 9 page book review/analysis that contrasts and compares Stanley Elkins' Slavery, A Problem in American Institutional and Intellectual Life (1976), and Albert J. Raboteau's Slave Religion: The Invisible Institution in the Antebellum South (originally published 1978; revised 2004). These are texts that address aspects of slavery as practiced in American history. This review of these books contrasts and compares the way in which these two exemplary historians address their topic. After offering an overview of both books, the writer specifically compares scholarship, use of sources, and substantiation for the writer's perspective. No additional sources cited.
