New Talking Legal History Podcast: Hendrik Hartog
Did you know ASLH has a podcast? It’s true! Talking Legal History is hosted by Siobhan M. M. Barco, a former litigator and current doctoral student in history at Duke University, whose work focuses on the space where law, gender, and print culture intersect.
In her most recent episode, she interviews Hendrik Hartog about his book The Trouble with Minna: A Case of Slavery and Emancipation in the Antebellum North (UNC Press, 2018). The Trouble with Minna is also used as a vessel to explore some of the topics discussed in Law and Social Inquiry’s May 2019 “Review Symposium: Retrospective on the Work of Hendrik Hartog.” Hartog is the Class of 1921 Bicentennial Professor in the History of American Law and Liberty, Emeritus at Princeton University.
This episode is the first in a series featuring legal history works from UNC Press. Support for the production of this series was provided by the Versatile Humanists at Duke program.
