Black Well-Being: Health and Selfhood in Antebellum Black Literature
Andrea Stone
Analyzing slave narratives, emigration polemics, a murder trial, and black-authored fiction, Andrea Stone highlights the central role physical and mental health and well-being played in antebellum black literary constructions of selfhood. These writers counter stereotypes and circumstances by representing and claiming the totality of bodily existence.
