In a Critical Whiteness reading of canonical and lesser-known texts from Charles Brockden Brown to Frank J. Webb, Murray argues that White characters on the border between life and death were liminal presences that disturbed prescriptions of racial belonging in the early US. Fears of losing Whiteness were routinely channelled through the language of liminality, in a precursor to today's White anxieties of marginalisation and minoritisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hannah Lauren Murray\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474481744\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474481748\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/06\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.46d","brand":"Hannah Lauren Murray","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44130550022399,"sku":"9781474481748","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8f63d4d4-5045-45e0-8f39-c7de949a3fdb.jpg?v=1687469972","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/liminal-whiteness-in-early-us-hannah-lauren-murray-9781474481748","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
