[2] James David Hacker,“The Human Cost of War: White Population in the United States, 1850—1880”, Ph.D. diss. (University of Minnesota, 1999), pp. 1, 14. Hacker认为,由于对南部邦联死于疾病人数估计不足,内战死亡人数可能被严重低估。内战伤亡及死亡率数据是全盘有问题的,南部邦联记录的不完整使这些数据尤其不可信。参阅该书第八章。Maris A. Vinovskis的结论是,北部13至45岁白人男性有大约6%死于战争,而在南部,相同年龄段的白人男性则有18%死去。但因为在南方白人中军事动员程度更高,南部士兵死亡率是北方的两倍而非三倍。詹姆斯·麦克弗森所引用的死亡率是南部邦联士兵31%,联邦士兵16%。Gary Gallagher认为,Vinovskis估计的南部总体死亡率太低了;他估计,四个而非五个达到参军年龄的南部白人男子中,便有一个人在战火中丧生。我所引用的是更为保守的总数。参见Vinovskis,“Have Social Historians Lost the Civil War?”载于Maris A.Vinovskis, ed.,Toward a Social History of the American Civil War: Exploratory Essays(New York: Cambridge University Press, 1990), pp. 3—7; James M.

Foster Damon, Amy Lowell: A Chronicle (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1935), p. 295。历史学者Michael O’Brien认为,Mary Chesnut那本重写于19世纪80年代、但在她去世前并未公布的内战日记,反映了与此相同的现代主义倾向。Chesnut是一名南卡罗来纳州贵族,在这场战争中她看到了周围世界的瓦解,以智慧与讽刺为支柱使自己存活了下来。在20世纪初她作品的删节本出版后,她便被成为了众所周知的人物。最终,1981年,历史学者C. Vann Woodward发布了一个基于她19世纪80的手稿精心编辑过的版本,将之视作一个文学创作 ——与再创作 ——而非一系列战争期间每日简短的记录。人们可能认为Chesnut的作品同Bierce、Melville与Dickinson的作品有很多相似处。Chesnut避开了叙述,而是采用了语态与碎片,以其所选择的形式反映出她自己的不信仰 ——对上帝、对科学、对她的社会、对她自己的不信仰 ——之实质。O’Brien将她同Virginia Woolf联系起来,指出从美国内战到半个世纪后的一战之间的怀疑与紊乱是一个具有连续性的统一体。Michael O’Brien, “The Flight Down the Middle Walk: Mary Chesnut and the Forms of Observance,” in Anne Goodwyn Jones and Susan V.

[14] James David Hacker最新的一项研究,发现了南部邦联记录的其他一些问题,指出南部死于腹泻与痢疾的士兵人数被严重少算,战争死亡总数应从258000增加到282600。Hacker, “The Human Cost of War: White Population in theUnited States, 1850—1880,” Ph.D. diss. (University of Minnesota, 1999), pp. 41—43。Hacker认为联邦与南部邦联阵亡数字是“比较准确的”(p. 15)。在我看来,他过于乐观了。Battles and Leaders of the Civil War在1889年总结道,“没有资料可供我们”对南部邦联的伤亡“进行一个比较准确的估计”。参见“Notes on the Union and Confederate Armies,” in Johnson and Buel, eds., Battles andLeaders of the Civil War, vol. 4, p. 768).也请注意Robert Krick对“南部邦联人对保存军事记录漠不关心的态度”之评论,见他为Roster of Confederate Soldiers一书所作的引言,p. 4。
