This volume analyzes the cultural and intellectual impact of the
war, considering how it reshaped Americans' spiritual, cultural,
and intellectual habits. The Civil War engendered an existential
crisis more profound even than the changes of the previous decades.
Its duration, scale, and intensity drove Americans to question how
they understood themselves as people. The chapters in the third
volume distinguish the varied impacts of the conflict in different
places on people's sense of themselves. Focusing on particular
groups within the war, including soldiers, families, refugees,
enslaved people, and black soldiers, the chapters cover a broad
range of ways that participants made sense of the conflict as well
as how the war changed their attitudes about gender, religion,
ethnicity, and race. The volume concludes with a series of essays
evaluating the ways Americans have memorialized and remembered the
Civil War in art, literature, film, and public life.
