First words |
Shaping Southern Society brings together thirteen essays on the changing character of social relations in England's southern colonies in Mainland America. [Preface] The essays in this collection investigate the ways in which people of different racial and social backgrounds interacted in the New World, to create what anthropologists have termed cultural "interdependencies." [Introduction] English men and women moved to the Southern colonies for a variety of personal reasons. | |
