Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Iowa, 1988.

The nature and scope of the white supremacy myth in 19th century books for the young is the problem upon which this study focuses. To understand that myth in relation to children is a way to add an important dimension to intellectual history--important because the mind-set of the child provides a basis from which to predict the future. Besides pinpointing that myth in literature, there remained the need to locate causes underlying the instillation of that myth in children. To ascertain conceivable causes, facets of adult society needed to be studied in comparison with children's books about Blacks.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The nature and scope of the white supremacy myth in 19th century books for the young is the problem upon which this study focuses. To understand that myth in relation to children is a way to add an important dimension to intellectual history--important because the mind-set of the child provides a basis from which to predict the future. Besides pinpointing that myth in literature, there remained the need to locate causes underlying the instillation of that myth in children. To ascertain conceivable causes, facets of adult society needed to be studied in comparison with children's books about Blacks.
520 $a An interdisciplinary method was used as a means to describe this interaction between adult culture and children's literature. Political, biographical, and literary history were examined, plus the history of institutions that typically impinged upon children's lives (e.g., the school, church, and press).
520 $a Among the major findings of this study is the high correspondence between North and South in their perpetuation of a white supremacist ideology in the culture of childhood. While negrophobia was less shrill in the North, white superiority as a literary theme was shaped in Northern publishing circles. Following the Civil War, a literary initiative occurred in the South that gave new energy to the notion of white pre-eminence, but the North was the publication center for those plantation stories by Joel Chandler Harris, Thomas Nelson Page, etc., as well as for white supremacist schoolbooks.
520 $a Northern ambivalence toward Blacks was expressed in a similar way in books, schools, churches, and branches of government. While slave emancipation and universal male suffrage suggested an impulse toward better race relations, "blackface" minstrelsy remained a popular form of entertainment, a means of cruelly ridiculing Black identity. Moreover, the North generally acquiesced when new forms of servitude and new restrictions on Black voting rights and educational opportunities were introduced in the South.
520 $a The white supremacy myth did not abate in books for children, but continued to be part of a conservative political trend and a general disregard for social justice and humane policies in the socialization of children.
