Democracy in America
http://xroads.virginia.edu/~HYPER/DETOC/home.html
Tocqueville's America is another project of the
American Studies Programs at The
University of Virginia. In this project we take up the task
of
re-contextualizing Alexis de Tocqueville's famous political and cultural
analysis of American democracy.
And so we're attempting to construct a
virtual American ca. 1831-32. The site now contains a virtual tour
of
America based on Tocqueville's itinerary, on his and his friend Beaumont's
letters and journals, on
contemporaneous accounts of other foreign
visitors, and on a variety of examples of material culture of the
period,
mostly paintings and engravings. It also holds explorations of
Womens' Place at the time, of attitudes toward race
and color, towards
religion, and towards everyday life.
