From richly detailed and compelling stories told about a diverse cast of people, readers learn up-close how they built intercultural public spaces through a transatlantic circuit of pedagogy that consistently challenged exclusionary constructs of empire and nation-state. \u003ci\u003eReimagining the Educated Citizen\u003c\/i\u003e does nothing less than chart a much-needed alternative pathway for understanding the history of education in the United States.”—Daniel H.

It masterfully illustrates the continued movement and creolization of people in the transatlantic world and unequivocally demonstrates the centrality education played, as both a tool of freedom and oppression, amid this mass movement and struggle to define what it meant to be enlightened, equal, worthy, and free.\"—Christopher Span, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“\u003ci\u003eReimagining the Educated Citizen\u003c\/i\u003e offers a new perspective on the history of education within the transatlantic world, using New Orleans as the point of intersection for indigenous, African, European, and ultimately Afro Creole people. . . . Hendry is clearly attuned to the gendered and racial dimensions of the story she is telling. With a focus on New Orleans, the experiences of both dominant and underrepresented groups inhabit this fascinating narrative.”—Mary Niall Mitchell, University of New Orleans\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eList of Illustrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eList of Abbreviations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eIntroduction:\u003c\/b\u003e Practicing History\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter One: \u003c\/b\u003eTransatlantic Educational Spaces: Remapping the Word and the World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter Two: \u003c\/b\u003eCounter-Enlightenment Pedagogical Ruptures: The Ursulines in Colonial Louisiana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter Three: \u003c\/b\u003eRemapping the “Unthinkable:” The Haitian Revolution, White Citizenship, and the Common School Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter Four: \u003c\/b\u003eA Curriculum of Imagination: Counter-Public Spaces in the Age of Segregation, 1841-1868\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter Five: \u003c\/b\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eNew Orleans Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Crusader\u003c\/i\u003e: Interracial Community-Based Texts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eEpilogue\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eBibliography\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eIndex\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The University of Michigan Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49525413183831,"sku":"9780472076390","price":69.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780472076390.jpg?v=1731860419","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/reimagining-the-educated-citizen-9780472076390","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
