• W1577743025 abstract "Trading Places: Colonization and Slavery in Eighteenth-Century French Culture. By Madeleine Dobie. Ithaca and London: Cornell University Press, 2010. ISBN 978-0-8014-7609-9. 336 pp. $27.50 paperback.Slavery hovering in air (188) may be considered undergirding image that puts into relation diverse and rich panoply of texts, eras, and locations, which constitute scope of Madeleine Dobie's tour-deforce analysis of how French culture was (and was not) shaped by trope of both in the Orient and in Americas, and was (and was not) transformed economically, socially, and culturally by fact of in Western Atlantic. Dobie's expression, slavery hovering in air, refers directly to her analysis of Chateaubriand's limited, yet telling allusions to in Voyage to America, written in early 1800s. Yet, ethereal grotesqueness of image also emblematizes what might be considered a paradigmatic shift in thinking about representations of and race in texts of eighteenth century and scholarship devoted to study of French Enlightenment. (Enlightenment is a term that Dobie does not find particularly useful in discussing eighteenthcentury France (27).) If most previous studies of how French texts deal with speak more of silences (9), Dobie's work shows how is latently] ubiquitous (11). It hover[s], lurking disturbingly close by, with repercussions for scholars of eighteenth-century France, but also for academic constituencies as varied as specialists of colonial America or pundits of contemporary European thought.Dobie anchors her study of colonization and in eighteenthcentury French culture; however, its scope surpasses eighteenth century to include considerations of French outlooks on from early 1600s to its consequences on cultural and social politics in France and French Caribbean in contemporary era. In a sense, Dobie's work is an all-encompassing survey of how French culture was radically transformed by slavery. At same time, it looks at how French culture has learned to displace (11) any possible overt (and even conscientious) recognition of monumental role that played in transformation of French society in seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. On subject of textiles, and particularly of cotton indiennes, Dobie speaks of a veritable revolution in French clothing (99) that would lead to an increased dependency on colonies to provide raw materials for France's new tastes-in dress, in home furnishings, and in culinary needs (124). Yet, recognition of Americas-and slavery-as a of origin for new textiles, techniques, and styles... long remained largely invisible (124), even to point of creating a complex web of mechanisms of disavowal carried over into postabolition era (293).The corpus that Dobie covers in her book is itself a magnum opus. She considers in seventeenth-, eighteenth-, and early-nineteenthcentury French texts, as well as repercussions that such patterns of a sort of nonrepresentation of and colonization occurring on a broader cultural level have had on contemporary discussions of race in contemporary France and DOM (11). In other words, she uses texts in which is present, yet repressed. Her primary texts are extremely varied, from written to material: philosophical and economic treatises, short stories and epistolary novels, travel logs and narratives, and furniture and textiles. From Montesquieu to de Tocqueville; from Olympe de Gouges to Germaine de Stael; from JeanBaptiste Labat; Antoine-Simon Le Page du Pratz and Cornelius De Pauw to Chateaubriand and Delacroix; from mahogany and indigo to cotton, Dobie exhaustively, yet concisely, examines how and colonization were quietly dealt with throughout a French century that sought both in thought and in material life to democratize itself in an unprecedented way. …" @default.
