Paperback. Condizione: New. Elleanor Eldridge, born of African and US indigenous descent in 1794, operated a lucrative domestic services business in nineteenth century Providence, Rhode Island. In defiance of her gender and racial background, she purchased land and built rental property from the wealth she gained as a business owner. In the 1830s, Eldridge was defrauded of her property by a white lender. In a series of common court cases as alternately defendant and plaintiff, she managed to recover it through the Rhode Island judicial system. In order to raise funds to carry out this litigation, her memoir, which includes statements from employers endorsing her respectable character, was published in 1838. Frances Harriet Whipple, an aspiring white writer in Rhode Island, narrated and co-authored Eldridge's story, expressing a proto-feminist outrage at the male ""extortioners"" who caused Eldridge's loss and distress. With the rarity of Eldridge's material achievements aside, Memoirs of Elleanor Eldridge forms an exceptional antebellum biography, chronicling Eldridge's life from her birth through the first publication of almost yearly editions of the text between 1838 and 1847. Because of Eldridge's exceptional life as a freeborn woman of color entrepreneur, it constitutes a counter-narrative to slave narratives of early 19th-century New England, changing the literary landscape of conventional American Renaissance studies and interpretations of American Transcendentalism.With an introduction by Joycelyn K. Moody, this new edition contextualizes the extraordinary life of Elleanor Eldridge - from her acquisition of wealth and property to the publication of her biography and her legal struggles to regain stolen property. Because of her mixed-race identity, relative wealth, local and regional renown, and her efficacy in establishing a collective of white women patrons, this biography challenges typical African and indigenous women's literary production of the early national period and resituates Elleanor Eldridge as an important cultural and historical figure of the nineteenth century.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 8vo., textblock measuring approx 9" x 5.8." xvi, 208pp. Condition: "Like New" condition with no signs of use, contents unmarked. Unclipped dj now protected in a removable mylar sleeve. NOTE: Unlike "God Struck Me Dead" (The American Slave: A Composite Autobiography, vol19), which is a compilation of actual religious conversion experiences and narratives of ex-slaves, "Sentimental Confessions" is a black feminist analysis of seven women's writings, not their actual writings, and as analyzed by Moody is significant in its own right. I just want readers to have an understanding of what this book deals with in case the title leads them to believe this was an anthology of writings by 19th-Century African American Women, which it is not.
