    In Race, Theft, and Ethics, Lovalerie King examines African American literature's critique of American law concerning matters of property, paying particular attention to the stereotypical image of the black thief. She draws on two centuries of African American writing that reflects the manner in which human value became intricately connected with property ownership in American culture, even as racialized social and legal custom and practice severely limited access to property. Using critical race theory, King builds a powerful argument that the stereotype of the black thief is an inevitable by

    Die Metaphorisierung ist für die Entwicklung der Wortbedeutungen einer der wirkungsmächtigsten Faktoren. Sie wird von den arabischen Dichtern auch überaus häufig als Kunstmittel eingesetzt, wodurch ihre Bildersprache Farbe und Reichtum erhält. Bisher ist die Metapher zumeist unter formalen und funktionalen Gesichtspunkten analysiert worden. Manfred Ullmanns Studie ist hingegen inhaltlich orientiert. Sie untersucht, mit welchen Gedanken und Vorstellungen der Begriff des „Diebstahls“ verbunden worden ist. Ähnlich wie im Deutschen reden auch die Araber von einem „verstohlenen Blick“, einem „geraubten Kuss“ und einem „Tagedieb“. Darüber hinaus gibt es im Arabischen viele weitere metaphorische Verbindungen, die hier anhand von etwa 900 Belegen aus der Zeit vom 6. bis zum 13. Jahrhundert vorgestellt werden. Dabei sind nicht nur die Synonyme für „stehlen“ erfasst und lexikalisch aufgearbeitet, sondern auch viele weitere Lexeme berücksichtigt worden, die der Erklärung bedürfen. Das Buch kommt somit nicht nur einer thematisch fokussierten Anthologie aus der arabischen Poesie gleich, sondern es liefert auch einen wichtigen Beitrag für die künftige Lexikografie. Anhand von analogen Beispielen aus dem Griechischen und Deutschen weist ein Ausblick zudem auf die Bedeutung für die Komparatistik hin. Der Inhalt des Buches wird durch Indizes der Personennamen und Reime sowie durch ein Wörterverzeichnis umfassend erschlossen.

    Stealing Things demonstrates how ninteenth-century French narratives portraying the "thief" figure reflect and critique popular attitudes of the times. This book focuses on how stolen objects shape individual identity and social status. It incorporates minor works by major authors, alongside treatises, children's fiction, and memoirs, for a unique look at the criminal underside of popular literature in nineteenth-century France.

    In Race, Theft, and Ethics, Lovalerie King examines African American literature's critique of American law concerning matters of property, paying particular attention to the stereotypical image of the black thief. She draws on two centuries of African American writing that reflects the manner in which human value became intricately connected with property ownership in American culture, even as racialized social and legal custom and practice severely limited access to property. Using critical race theory, King builds a powerful argument that the stereotype of the black thief is an inevitable byproduct of American law, politics, and social customs. In making her case, King ranges far and wide in black literature, looking closely at over thirty literary works. She uses four of the best-known African American autobiographical narratives -- Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, Harriet Jacobs's Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, Booker T. Washington's Up From Slavery, and Richard Wright's Black Boy -- to reveal the ways that law and custom worked to shape the black thief stereotype under the institution of slavery and to keep it firmly in place under the Jim Crow system. Examining the work of William Wells Brown, Charles Chesnutt, James Weldon Johnson, and Alice Randall, King treats "the ethics of passing" and considers the definition and value of whiteness and the relationship between whiteness and property. Close readings of Richard Wright's Native Son and Dorothy West's The Living is Easy, among other works, question whether blacks' unequal access to the economic opportunities held out by the American Dream functions as a kind of expropriation for which there is no possible legal or ethical means of reparation. She concludes by exploring the theme of theft and love in two famed neo--slave or neo--freedom narratives -- Toni Morrison's Cover -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1. Race, Property, and Ethics: The Historical and Legal Equation -- 2. The Ethics of Living Slavery and Jim Crow -- 3. Theft and Love in Two Neo-Freedom Narratives: Toni Morrison's Beloved and Charles Johnson's Middle Passage -- 4. Miscegenation, Disinheritance, and the Ethics of Passing -- 5. In Quest of the Elusive American Dream -- Conclusion -- Notes -- Index -- A -- B -- C -- D -- E -- F -- G -- H -- I -- J -- K -- L -- M -- N -- O -- P -- R -- S -- T -- U -- V -- W -- Z.
