I don't have much experience with post-colonial theories, but I can see the possibilities of applying them to the texts mentioned in your exhibit. I haven't yet read the works of George Washington Cable or the captivity narrative of Francisco Nunez de Pineda y Bascunan, but I am highly tempted to track them down. I have read <em>Uncle Tom's Cabin</em>, <em>Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl</em>, and Mary Rowlandson's captivity narrative, so I downloaded those two articles for later reading. <br> Amy, you’ve found some interest... http://nines.org/forum/object?comment=98 Amy, you’ve found some interesting articles to link with your exploration of Creole communities; I’m impressed that most of us seem to have found something connected to our research in the NINES. The Jones article you located on Cable, in particular, sounds like it could provide some insight to Creole traditions and language use. "Ethnographic essays" sound like artifacts loaded with cultural observations.<br>I’m curious—does the Victorian time frame overlap with your prior research in this area? It seems the confluence of disciplinary interests such as history, sociology, and literary studies presents opportunities for developing some unique research topics.

It’s interesting how they overlap with some of the African American areas of interest I have. The article, “Creole Family Politics in "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl,” was really interesting. I haven’t Jacob’s work in quite some time. I also liked the one on dialect. It looks like you found ones that pertain to your research.
