The image of an estate presided over by a benevolent Thomas Jefferson has given way to a more complex view of Monticello as a working plantation, the success of which was made possible by the work of slaves. At the center of this transition has been the work of Lucia 'Cinder' Stanton, recognized as the leading interpreter of Jefferson's life as a planter and master and of the lives of his slaves and their descendants. This volume represents the first attempt to pull together Stanton's most important writings on slavery at Monticello and beyond. Stanton's pioneering work revealed Jefferson's psychology in crucial ways, deepening our understanding of him without demonizing him. Perhaps even more important is the light her writings have shed on the lives of the slaves at Monticello. Her detailed reconstruction for modern readers of the life of the slave is more than vivid; it reveals an active role in the creation of Monticello and a dynamic community previously unimagined. The essays collected here address Jefferson and the lives of his slaves from a rich variety of perspectives, from family histories (including the Hemingses) to the temporary slave community at Jefferson's White House to stories of former slaves' lives after Monticello. Each piece is characterized by Stanton's deep knowledge of her subject and by her determination to do justice to both Jefferson and his slaves"--Publisher description. 600 10 Jefferson, Thomas,|d1743-1826|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79089957|xRelations with slaves. 600 10 Hemings, Sally|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n78056413|xFamily.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh00005743 600 10 Jefferson, Thomas,|d1743-1826|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79089957|xFamily.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005743 600 17 Jefferson, Thomas,|d1743-1826.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/40754 600 17 Hemings, Sally.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/25900 650 0 Plantation life|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85102824|zVirginia|zAlbemarle County|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/names/n80026695-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Enslaved persons|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123347|zVirginia|zAlbemarle County|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/names/n80026695-781|vBiography.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001237 650 0 African American families|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85001843|zVirginia|zAlbemarle County|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80026695-781|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Relations with slaves.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1354397 650 7 Plantation life.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1065779 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Enslaved persons.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1120522 650 7 Families.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1728849 650 7 African American families.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/799152 651 0 Monticello (Va.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85087069|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005024 651 7 Virginia|zAlbemarle County.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/1208011 651 7 Virginia|zMonticello.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1733803 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026049 830 0 Jeffersonian America.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n99044272 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 563923 948 |d20120521|cMH|tcheck 520 enrich|lridm|v1 994 C0|bRID
