   Extractions: The first of the Southwestern humorists, Augustus Baldwin Longstreet, was born September 22, 1790 in Augusta, Georgia. Possibly the most accomplished and well-educted of the humorists, Longstreet led a varied and illustrious life. He attended the prestigious Waddell School in Willinton, South Carolina and then entered Yale College. He was a lawyer and served politically on the State Assembly in Georgia and as an elected judge in 1821-1822. After the death of his son in 1824 (one of six children to die as an infant) Longstreet withdrew from political office. In 1830 he began writing sketches that would be collected into the classic text of Southwestern humor, Georgia Scenes , published in 1835. These nineteen stories appeared first as separate publications in the Milledgeville, Georgia Southern Recorder and in the Augusta States Rights Sentinel of which Longstreet was the editor. His stories held an appeal for allranging from a didactic, authoritative tone in "The Charming Creature as a Wife" to the raucous and crude humor of "The Horse Swap" and "The Fight" . It is in his most famous story, "The Fight", that Southwestern humor acquires the character type of the

   Extractions: the book First published in 1835, Georgia Scenes presented a collection of some twenty sketches that had originally appeared in local Georgia papers (among them Longstreet’s own Augusta State Rights Sentinel ). It was acclaimed as the first manifestation of what became known as Southwestern Humor—on which Mark Twain and William Faulkner were to feed copiously. Augustus Baldwin Longstreet became intimately acquainted with the backroads of his native region when as a young lawyer he rode the circuit of the Ocmulgee district in Middle Georgia ( see map below Letters on the Epistle of Paul to Philemon or The Connection of Apostolical Christianity with Slavery , a pamphlet calling upon the bible to defend the peculiar institution. In his manners and behavior Longstreet early on came to anticipate the pigheadedness and touchy pride of Southern firebrand secessionists. Georgia Scenes has been acclaimed by critics as an early highlight of Southern literature and a major record of social history of the Lower South in the first half century of the young republic, though its title is misleading and the claims made for the book are, perhaps, too far-flung. The humor that informs some of the sketches is hardly in line with what eventually was labeled Southwestern humor, and rather than offering a survey of the diversity of the ways of life pursued in the various landscapes stretching from the Sea Islands to the Blue Ridge, Longstreet’s volume offers select glimpses of one special section as the focus is primarily on what was termed Middle Georgia, the region of Augusta and the counties situated to the west of the city (

   Extractions: Augustus Baldwin Longstreet was born in Augusta, Georgia in 1790, the son of parents who migrated to Georgia from New Jersey around 1785. Longstreet attended Yale from 1811 to 1813, and afterward studied law in Litchfield, Connecticut at the school of Judges Tapping Reeve and James Gould. He returned to his native state and was admitted to the Georgia bar in 1815. In the late 1810s and the early 1820s, Longstreet rode the circuit of Richmond County, Georgia, a frontier area in the southwest part of the state. During these journeys he made political and social contacts and keenly observed the raw society around him. After Longstreet became a newspaper editor in 1834, he tried to capture the customs, speech, and values of people he had encountered on his travels. These sketches, mixing affection with amusement, were collected and published in Georgia Scenes in 1835; they met with warm reviews and widespread sales. Eleven editions of Georgia Scenes appeared in the nineteenth century, making the collection of southwestern humor the first of its kind to have a successful national audience. Longstreet became a Methodist minister in 1838, and was president of Emory College from 1839 to 1848. He later served as president of Centenary College, the University of Mississippi, and the University of South Carolina. During the Civil War he traveled in support of the Confederacy and briefly served as a chaplain in the Georgia Militia. Augustus Longstreet retired to Mississippi after the war and died in Oxford in 1870.

   Extractions: In the younger days of the Republic there lived in the county of - two men who were admitted on all hands to be the very best men in the county, which in the Georgia vocabulary means they could flog any other two men in the county. Each, through many a hard - fought battle, had acquired the mastery of his own battalion; but they lived on opposite sides of the court- house and in different battalions, consequently they were but seldom thrown together. When they met however, they were always very friendly indeed at their first interview they seemed to conceive a wonderful attachment to each other, which rather increased than diminished as they became better acquainted; so that, but for the circumstance which I am about to mention, the question, which had been a thousand times asked, " Which is the best man, Billy Stallions (Stallings) or Bob Durham ?" would probably never have been answered.

Set in what were then the southwestern states of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Missouri, Southwestern humor originated in the political and oral traditions of this growing region and consists of tales and sketches that are often violent, ribald, and masculine but which also depict some effort at realism and descriptions of the region which had not been attempted previously. Though the movement declined with the ending of the Southwest as a frontier and with the beginning of the Civil War, traits of Southwestern humor became hallmarks of late-nineteenth century realism and local color, particularly in the writings of Mark Twain.

   http://docsouth.unc.edu/longstreet/about.html
   
   Extractions: 1790-1870. Writer. Longstreet is remembered today for his collection of humorous stories, Georgia Scenes (1835). A native of Augusta, Ga., he earned a degree from Yale University in 1813, studied law in Litchfield, Conn., and returned to his home state. He later attained professional success as a lawyer, a superior court judge, a proprietor and editor of a newspaper (the State Rights Sentinel , which he used as a forum for his political views, especially for a defense of slavery and nullification), a Methodist minister, and president of four institutions of higher learning (Emory College in Georgia, Centenary College in Louisiana, the University of Mississippi, and the University of South Carolina). His experiences as a lawyer and judge in Georgia furnished Longstreet with an opportunity to observe southerners of every social class, and he made use of these people as characters for Georgia Scenes . Ostensibly related by two refined narrators - Hall, a country gentleman, and Baldwin, an urbane judge - the 19 sketches are populated by crackers, dirt eaters, crafty horse traders, and other indigenous southern types. The clash of the narrators' values and highly literate writing styles with the values and vernacular speech of the rural people that Hall and Baldwin encounter is the basis for much of the humor of the volume. Walter Blair called Georgia Scenes "the first and most influential book of Southwestern humor." Longstreet's themes and techniques foreshadowed those in the works of such antebellum humorists as Johnson Jones Hooper and George Washington Harris, who followed in this tradition, a tradition that attracted Mark Twain during his writing career. In his use of the South and its people to create a sense of place in fiction, Longstreet opened new territory later traveled by such local colorists of the post-bellum period as Richard Malcolm Johnston and Thomas Nelson Page and by writers of the 20th century, from William Faulkner to Eudora Welty.

    Extractions: by Beth Dawkins Bassett When the "faltering" hands of Ignatius Few let go the reins of the College, the "stronger hands" of Judge Augustus Baldwin Longstreet took over, Bullock wrote in his history of Emory. Longstreet was an intelligent, exuberant, Yale-educated Georgia with an imposing presence and a lively sense of humor.... By the time he came to Emory at age fifty, Longstreet had practiced law in and around Augusta, served a term as judge of the Supreme Court of the Ocmulgee District, become a Methodist minister, edited and published an August newspaper, and written a series of sketches that were compiled in a book called Georgia Scences . These stories, told with the flair of a born raconteur and full of earthy humor, made their author famous across the United States. Certainly Longstreet was better known than Emory College, and, wrote Bullock, "his widespread popularity and his well-known abilities immediately lent prestige to the school." The College's reputation grew during his eight-year term, and the number of graduates swelled to equal the number finishing the University of Georgia, which had been founded fifty-one years before Emory.... The most distinguished early graduate was L.Q.C. Lamar, who remembered his school days with great fondness. On a return visit h e said, "No spot on earth has so helped to form and make me what I am as this town of Oxford."

    Extractions: Oxford, Mississippi Augustus Baldwin Longstreet is often described as the common Georgian's first literary portraitist. Georgia Scenes, Characters, Incidents, Etc. in the First Half Century of the Republic (1835) was a groundbreaking work which drew the contemporary praise of Edgar Allan Poe for its penetrating understanding of Southern character. A circuit-riding lawyer in Augusta and Greensboro in the first quarter of the nineteenth century, Longstreet drew from his experiences to sketch Georgia Scenes' crossroads character types with their emerging dialects, manners, and moral conflicts. Fueled by Longstreet's acute ear for his characters' speech and his narrative pose of corrective laughter, the nineteen tales made for an immensely popular work that ran through eleven editions between 1835 and 1897. Initially published as individual sketches in various newspapers (including Longstreet's own Augusta-based States Rights Sentinel Georgia Scenes opened up a literary gold seam. As sketches of comic reality for antebellum readers, the book inspired the talents of 19th-century humorists and local color writers whose ultimate expression arrived with Mark Twain. Later, in the twentieth century, the moral conflicts of Longstreet's crossroads stakeholders, town rowdies, and backwoods louts would be resurrected in the humid and often violent landscape drawn by 20th-century Southern writers like Faulkner and O'Connor.

LONGSTREET, The author of Georgia Scenes, and a native of that state, born at the close of the last century, has practised at intervals the somewhat diverse occupations of law and the ministry of the Methodist Church. He was for several years President of Emory College, at Oxford, Georgia. In his youth he was an intimate of George McDuffie and others, who became leading men of the South, and the adventures which he shared with these furnish some of the anecdotes of his capital book of humor, entitled, which first appeared in a newspaper of the state, and subsequently in a volume from the press of the Harpers, in New York, in 1840. "They consist," the author tells us in his preface, "of nothing more than fanciful combinations of real incidents and characters; and throwing into those scenes, which would be otherwise dull and insipid, some personal incident or adventure of my own, real or imaginary, as it would best suit my purpose; usually real
