| Research Abstract |
Collective memories, icons, representations, and symbols are now focused in the recent scholarship of American history. In this project we shed light on how these "soft devices" were formed and functioned in Early American history, examining the historical backgrounds of the Statue of Pocahontas, the Washington Family Burial Grounds, the sites related to the Revolutionary War, inscriptions of coins, blackface minstrelsy, and the African Burial Ground National Monument.
