Beschreibung
Prof. Hazel V. Carby is the Charles C. and Dorothea S. Dilley Professor Emeritus of African American Studies and Professor Emeritus of American Studies and a Fellow of the Royal Society for the Arts. Prof. Carby will deliver the Muhlenberg Lecture 2021.
“The lecture is drawn from a section of Imperial Intimacies: A Tale of Two Islands (Verso, 2019), a history of the British empire told through one woman’s search through her family’s story. The book is an intimate personal history and a sweeping summation of the violent entanglement of two islands charting the imperial interweaving of capital and bodies, public language and private feeling. In this talk I will describe how, having found the slave register for a plantation in Portland Jamaica, I traced the Carby owner and the women, enslaved and free, who labored on the land” - Prof. Hazel Carby (Yale University)
