PATREON PREVIEW- Private Confederacies- The Emotional Worlds of Southern Men as Citizens and Soldiers- with Author James J Broomall Jun 15, 2020

Show notes

I feel like a broken record, but what a great time I had inertviewing Jim Broomall about his book "Private Confederacies". We met near the monument of the 111th Pa on Culp's Hill, in the shade, with a nice, gentle Pennsylvania breeze which seems to be a rarity for these in-the-field recordings in 2020. Anyway... How did the Civil War, emancipation, and Reconstruction shape the masculinity of white Confederate veterans? As James J. Broomall shows, the crisis of the war forced a reconfiguration of the emotional worlds of the men who took up arms for the South. Raised in an antebellum culture that demanded restraint and shaped white men to embrace self-reliant masculinity, Confederate soldiers lived and fought within military units where they experienced the traumatic strain of combat and its privations together--all the while being separated from suffering families. Military service provoked changes that escalated with the end of slavery and the Confederacy's military defeat. Returning to civilian life, Southern veterans questioned themselves as never before, sometimes suffering from terrible self-doubt. Drawing on personal letters and diaries, Broomall argues that the crisis of defeat ultimately necessitated new forms of expression between veterans and among men and women. On the one hand, war led men to express levels of emotionality and vulnerability previously assumed the domain of women. On the other hand, these men also embraced a virulent, martial masculinity that they wielded during Reconstruction and beyond to suppress freed peoples and restore white rule through paramilitary organizations and the Ku Klux Klan. James J. Broomall is assistant professor of history at Shepherd University and director of the George Tyler Moore Center for the Study of the Civil War. Get Private Confederacies from UNC Press here

Ask A Gettysburg Guide #15- Gettysburg National Cemetery with LBG Roy Frampton May 15, 2020

Show notes

LBG Roy Frampton joins Matt, Bob and Tim from near the Howard Statue on East Cemetery Hill. While this Ask A Gettysburg Guide is about the National Cemetery, we didn't think four people on lawn chairs talking into microphones would look appropriate in the cemetery itself. So, we went across the street.

In this episode, we cover topics such as:

-USCT graves

-the cemetery during the battle and the monuments within it

-A confederate mass grave in the Annex?

-Revelry in the town the night before the Dedication

-Confederate soldiers buried among the Union dead

-boxes containing the personal effects taken from the "Unknown" soldiers

-The Bivouac of the Dead matching up with the melody of Gilligan's Island

-methods used to identify the dead

-families recovering their buried soldiers

and which unit has the most soldiers buried in its section.

As always, this is brought to you by the awesome support of our Patrons. Become one today by clicking here.
