Download Recollections of a Southern Matron Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
There have been many editions of this popular 1838 work, written by a Northern woman who lived for many years in Charleston, S. C. Technically, it is a fiction book because of her apocryphal story-line. She relies heavily, however, upon her real-life experiences in the American South. Written in first person narration, with the concentration on domestic life on a Southern plantation, Gilman highlights the serenity of the slaves, who were always called "servants." But this is not her main theme. She does not get into heated politics of abolition, the rights of man, etc., but probes more into the day-to-day interpersonal relations between master and servant and their inter-dependence upon one another. The book is a cultural report of what is, not of what ought to be. She neither condemns nor lauds Southern domestic life, but presents a fictionalized story line based on her experiences. Her work has long been valued for the spirit and fidelity with which she has painted rural and home life. The book shows habits of keen observation and an artist-like power of grouping and character development. A variety of human emotions are stirred, including laughter and tears as such events as births, weddings, and funerals are covered. Her writing has stood the test of time, and many people have enjoyed her books and poetry.

Presented here are excerpts from diaries and letters written by Southern women from different walks of life and areas of the country. Mary White, a fifteen-year-old girl, attempted to get through the blockade in Wilmington, North Carolina; Nancy Jones lived in fear amid the violence that rocked Missouri and saw her close friends and family murdered and her young son taken prisoner by the Yankees; Sarah Dandridge Duval and her family were refugees living near Richmond, Virginia. The book includes personal reminiscences from Union and Confederate women living in Winchester, Virginia, a town that reportedly changed hands 76 times during the war, and the reactions of Southern women to the surrender at Appomattox.
