Place is central to the study of the American South. The question of the meaning and power of place underpinned the earliest efforts to define and understand the region, and place remains a crucial concept in an ongoing process of regional identification and inquiry. This book examines Southern place autobiographically, historically, and theoretically in order to illuminate the subjective and social dimensions of place and to promote progressive conversation in the region. Using the interpretive tools of psychoanalysis to take account of the autobiographical roots of knowledge and society, Brian Casemore conceptualizes curriculum inquiry in the American South as a response to the complex role of place in self-formation. If we accept that place is ideological as well as physically dimensional - that it is created in the mind as well as the landscape - we have an opportunity to explore it as it emerges, laden with personal and public meaning.
«This book stands as an exquisite, at times searing analysis of the personal, social, and historical memories attached to the 'many Souths' in the United States. Brian Casemore offers his readers a broad historical and disciplinary range, a density of interpretive materials, and a nuanced and sophisticated analysis of the ways in which literary and imaginary landscapes can become a force of cultural power and a means through which to erase our nation's violent history from consciousness. With this most refined book, Casemore strikes many new and generative chords for future scholarship in curriculum theory.» (Paula M. Salvio, Associate Professor, University of New Hampshire)
«I am also a white male who came of age in Louisiana, and I found myself nodding in agreement, smiling in affirmation, and weeping with solemn delight as I savored each page and every narrative in this compelling text. In the tradition of Eudora Welty and William Faulkner - and with inspiration from contemporary Southern writers Yusef Komunyakaa and Ellen Douglas - Brian Casemore presents themes that inspire across time and place while also deconstructing the nostalgia of cohesion in the psychology of the American South. Casemore presents a complicated chthonian vision. His curriculum inquiry is precisely the scholarship that introduces the curriculum field to the voices of the post-reconceptualization generation. Casemore has established himself as one of the leading Lacan scholars in the curriculum field, and with this book he takes readers on a penetrating journey into the complex matrix of the Real in the American South. This dimension of place and subjectivity, Casemore shows, is bound by 'landscapes that coincide with Lacan's Imaginary'.» (Patrick Slattery, Professor and Regents Scholar, Texas A&M University)
