Historians and the Abolition Movement_ is a study of the major changes in the inter-pretation of the abolition movement from the last decade of the nineteenth century when trained historians first came to write about it, down to the nineteen-sixties. During these eighty years, the historical treatment of the ante-bellum crusade against slavery changed from partial approval to total denunciation, and then to sympathetic reappraisal.In the analysis of these changes, the author also tries to locate the factors contributing to such shifts in interpretation and attitude. He finds that the accumulation of scholarship and material, and the historian's background and convictions were influential. However, greater emphasis is put on the relationships between the historian's view of the abolitionists and the general outlook of his age, because, during given periods, abolition historians often agreed on a general pattern in their attitudes toward and interpretation of the abolition movement. ? |
