Book Synopsis Slavery and the French and Haitian Revolutionists by : Anna Julia Cooper
Book excerpt: Anna Julia Cooper's dissertation, "L'Attitude de la France à l'égard de l'esclavage pendant la revolution," offered a bold interpretation of the French Revolution. In it, she examined the relations between the 18th-century revolutionists in Paris and the representatives and inhabitants of the richest of French colonies, San Domingue. Historian Frances R. Keller now makes this unique work available in English for students and scholars alike. Through Keller's interpretive essays, one is able to better understand the incredible story of Anna Julia Cooper and the importance and originality of her scholarship.
