Call for Panelists- At Home in the Early Republic - SHEAR 2019
I'm hoping to create a panel for SHEAR 2019 on home--as idea, place, and practice--in the early Republic. My work focuses on black and white southerners' creation of home on plantations, but I can imagine a range of additional foci, including domesticity, kinship/family, architecture, landscape, domestic material culture, and home in urban areas. If you’re interested in contributing a paper to the panel, or serving as a chair or commentator, please email me at Whitney.Stewart@utdallas.edu.
Best,
Whitney Stewart
