In the Fall 2013 issue of Common-place, Dwight Pitcaithley and Marie
Tyler-McGraw tell the story of the Lemmon Case—a trial dealing with
states’ rights and slavery far less famous than the Dred Scott case, but
that held the potential to more completely overturn the Constitutional
order in the years before the Civil War. Lara Langer Cohen offers a
glimpse into the oddly conformist teenage subculture of
nineteenth-century amateur newspaper publishing. Cybele Gontar charts
the history of the production of abolitionist textiles in France, and
Zara Anishanslin gives notes on a manual for raising silkworms. All
this, along with the latest reviews, poetry, and more, can be found in
the new issue, available www.common-place.org.
