| Summary: | "Presented at a conference in Haiti to commemorate the 1989 bicentennial of the French Revolution, these papers represent an excellent selection of works published over the past 20 years by specialists on slavery in 18th-century Saint-Domingue and the transatlantic slave trade. New research is represented by Pierre H. Boulle's examination of restrictions placed on free blacks residing in France, which tended to make their status similar to that of slaves; Bernard Foubert's 'Statut social et statut foncier dans la plaine des Cayes sous la Révolution,' which documents how granting garden plots to slaves led to their freedom and land ownership; Serge Daget's work on the last French slave shipments to the Antilles (1815-32); Jacques Cauna's new biographical data on Polverel, a commissaire of the Convention nationale sent to Guadeloupe in 1793 who worked for economic reconstruction and the creation of a landed class of freedmen; and Paul Lachance's study of the composition and social relations of Saint-Domingue refugees in New Orleans in 1809"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58 |
