Hardcover. Condición: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Brown lettering on yellow cloth covered boards. 8vo, 74pp. According to the editor's introduction: "Le Carillon was a propaganda periodical published between 1869 and 1875 in New Orleans. It was anti-black, anti-Republican, anti-Carpetbag, anti-Scalawag, and anti-clerical. It was published in French under the editorship of Dr. Pierre Durel. The owner in 1872-1874 was C. Maillet (first name not known). The paper contained very little news except that pertaining to the political situation in Louisiana. It apparently was born as a response to the corrupt and oppressive government of the Reconstruction Era, and died in 1875, when the Republican-Freedman coalition government was on the verge of collapsing under the pressures of the white-supremacy Democrats, who represented the native white majority. (The final collapse occurred in 1877. After the elections there were actually two governments for a while, each claiming to be the legitimate one. The Republican regime fell after Hayes, the new President , removed Federal troops from Louisiana.) One of the ways in which Le Carillon made its propaganda points was inclusion of satires." The above is excerpted from the author's "Linguistic Note". He also provides a bibliographical note, chapter notes, and a selected bibliography. The text of the satires is in the Creole language, but is followed by a translation into modern French.
