Carrie Hyde: US Studies Centre postdoctoral fellow

31 October 2011

In this interview 2011-12 US Studies Centre postdoctoral fellow Carrie Hyde provides an overview of her research into the rhetorical development of US citizenship prior to the 14th Amendment. She says that by looking at literature between 1790-1868 we can learn a lot about what it meant to be a US citizen both in that period and in the 21st century, which continues to define citizenship in large part by those who are dispossessed.
