Sent: 22 September 2012 17:26 Hello, List members may be interested in Common-place 12:4 Interim Issue, September 2012 This is an online, quarterly history journal founded by the American Antiquarian Society and University of Oklahoma. It is a "common place" for exploring and exchanging ideas about early American history and culture. It is also a common place for all sorts of people to read about all sorts of things relating to early American life--from architecture to literature, from politics to parlor manners. The September Interim issue provides a review of Elaine Forman Crane's new book, Witches, Wife Beaters, & Whores: Common Law and Common Folk in Early America (2011), which discusses, among other topics, the gendered (or gender-neutral) language of early American lawmaking and how certain women influenced and/or appropriated the law in cases of domestic violence and sexual abuse. For all this and more, point your browser to: www.commom-place.org<http://www.commom-place.org>. Very respectfully, Aaron M.
