From the jacketflap The 1974 original publication of Blacks in Bondage Letters of American Slaves marked a watershed in slavery studies Before it appeared historians were resigned to studying American slavery mainly through the testimony of white and the distant recollections of blacks who had been free for many years It took this compilation of documents gathered by Robert S Starobin to convince historians that it was possible to study American slavery from the perspective of blacks living under it or only recently freed The letters show that in spite of legal and practical obstacles many slaves managed to become literate or else desired to and that slaves given greater autonomy or the hope of freedom always worked more diligently The spirit of protest is amply evidenced Included in the collection are depositions of members of the Gabriel Conspiracy of 1800 a plane for a largescale slave revolt which was betrayed from within The letters are grouped according to the status of their authors at the time of composition for example slaves seeking to gain their freedom fugitives and freedmen living in Liberia Starobins commentaries give the writers backgrounds and guide the reader in interpreting the texts many of which conceal subtexts full of mockery and defiance

What is the role of survivor testimony in Holocaust remembrance Today such recollections are considered among the most compelling and important historical sources we have but this has not always been true In The Era of the Witness a concise rigorously argued and provocative work of cultural and intellectual history Annette Wieviorka seeks to answer this surpassingly complex question She analyzes the conditions under which survivor testimonies have been produced how they have been received over time and how the testimonies shaped the construction of history and collective memory Wieviorka discerns three successive phases in the evolution of the roles and images of the Holocaust witness The first phase is marked by the testimony left by those who did not survive the Holocaust but managed nevertheless to record their experiences The second most important phase is centered on the Eichmann trial which for Wieviorka is the moment 19611962 when a broad cultural deafness to survivors stories was replaced by the image of the witness as bearer of history The author follows the changing nature of the witness into a third phase which she calls the era of the witness Especially concerned with the pedagogical and political uses to which survivor testimony has been put Wieviorka examines factors that determine when and how survivor testimonies are incorporated into the larger narrative of the Holocaust according it a privileged place in our understanding By exploring the ways in which the Holocaust is remembered The Era of the Witness also deepens our understanding of how testimony can help to define not only twentiethcentury history but also more recent episodes of mass killing that are only now becoming history
