Studying the rhetoric of antislavery genres, Gould exposes the relation between antislavery writings and commercial capitalism. By distinguishing between good commerceâ€"the importing of commodities that refined mannersâ€"and bad commerce, like the slave trade, the literature offered a critique and outline of acceptable forms of commercial capitalism.
