This document contains abstracts of four essays published in the Oxford Literary Review. The first essay examines Henry David Thoreau's views on slavery and freedom, highlighting the strengths and limitations of Transcendentalism in relation to race, nation, class, gender, and sexuality. The second essay explores the concept of death as a form of slavery and the role of law in perpetuating white-over-black dominance. The third essay discusses the sublation of slavery by labor in Marxist discourse and argues for the importance of recognizing the objective impossibility of the slave's political position. The fourth essay explores the exclusion of blackness from crisis theory and its unintended consequences in relation to truth, law, judgment, and thinking.
