Rumor, Gossip and Reputation in Early America
Sebastian Jobs
Kommentar
Rumors and gossip have often been dismissed as unreliable materials of historical research. However, if one shifts the focus from verifying whether these conversations were truthful or not and hones in on the fact that they themselves were historical events worth considering, they allow valuable interpretations of the history of gender norms, emotions, social structures, trust or intimacy and so on. In that vein, this seminar will focus on the actors, media and structures of communicating "uncertain knowledge" beyond the evidential paradigm by taking into considerations conspiracy theories, gossip and rumors and they impact they had on the people of the Early American Republic.
