WiSe 20/21: Transatlantic Slave Trade
Sebastian Jobs
Comments
Human bondage was one of the key features of European colonization in the Americas and one of the politically most divisive issues in the United States until the end of the 19th century. While for more than one century most of the enslaved people were forcefully taken from Africa to the American continent, after 1808 the domestic trade within the United States flourished. In our seminar we will discuss how the transatlantic as well as the internal slave trade affected lives in the American colonies and the United States. By employing a variety of research perspectives we will discuss slave trade as an economic and social as well as a cultural phenomenon that today still resonates in the American mind. close
