Fanatical Schemes: Proslavery Rhetoric and the Tragedy of Consensus
Patricia Roberts-Miller
What was the relationship between rhetoric and slavery, and how did rhetoric fail as an alternative to violence, becoming instead its precursor? This title studies proslavery rhetoric in the 1830s. It argues that, on the contrary, inflammatory rhetoric is inherent to proslavery ideology and predated various shifts in abolitionist practices.
