摘要

所有人。他们坚持认为,赋予被奴役人民豁免权的是奴隶制本身,而不是黑人身份。奥利瓦里乌斯的书有很多值得赞赏的地方。她展示了一群已经适应的白人男性政客如何将选举安排在黄热病季节,以确保更大比例的选民能够自己适应(因此他们对使用公共资金来控制这种疾病几乎没有兴趣)。她展示了精英们如何利用一种致命的疾病,在适应了这种疾病的白人、未适应这种疾病的白人和非白人之间维持严格的社会分层。在这本聪明优雅的书中,有一个令人费解的遗漏,那就是缺乏对书页中图像的解释或分析;注意这些图像会增加这本书的丰富性。除此之外,Necropolis是关于疾病,政治和权力的文学作品的优秀补充,并且在这些领域都做出了重要的贡献。

Replanting a Slave Society: The Sugar and Cotton Revolutions in the Lower Mississippi Valley by Patrick Luck (review)
all. Slavery itself, and not Blackness, they insisted, had conferred immunity on enslaved people. There is much to admire about Olivarius’s book. She shows how a circle of acclimated white male politicians timed elections to coincide with the yellow fever season, ensuring that a larger percentage of voters would be acclimated themselves (and thus would have little interest in using public funds to control the disease). She demonstrates the ways elites took advantage of a deadly disease to maintain a strict social stratification among acclimated whites, unacclimated whites, and nonwhites. A somewhat puzzling omission in this other wise elegant book is the lack of explanation or analy sis of the images in its pages; attention to these images would have added to the richness of the book. That aside, Necropolis is an excellent addition to the lit er a ture on disease, politics, and power, and makes impor tant contributions to each of these areas.
