Monticello, historick\u00fd d\u016fm Thomase Jeffersona, proch\u00e1z\u00ed rekonstruk\u010dn\u00edm projektem v hodnot\u011b 35 milion\u016f dolar\u016f zn\u00e1m\u00fdm jako projekt Mountaintop. C\u00edlem projektu je vr\u00e1tit Monticello p\u016fvodn\u00ed p\u016fdorys, kter\u00fd m\u011blo v dob\u011b, kdy zde Jefferson \u017eil, a osv\u011btlit \u00faplnou historii plant\u00e1\u017ee, v\u010detn\u011b jej\u00ed historie otroctv\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n
V r\u00e1mci projektu Mountaintop renovovali archeologov\u00e9 a restaur\u00e1to\u0159i ji\u017en\u00ed k\u0159\u00eddlo Monticello. Objevili malou m\u00edstnost bez oken, o n\u00ed\u017e se p\u0159edpokl\u00e1d\u00e1, \u017ee byla obydl\u00edm Sally Hemingsov\u00e9, zotro\u010den\u00e9 \u017eeny, s n\u00ed\u017e m\u011bl Jefferson \u00fadajn\u011b nejm\u00e9n\u011b \u0161est d\u011bt\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n
M\u00edstnost je 4,5 metru \u0161irok\u00e1 a 4 metry dlouh\u00e1. M\u00e1 cihlovou podlahu a om\u00edtnut\u00e9 st\u011bny a byla postavena v roce 1809. Monticello pl\u00e1nuje m\u00edstnost zrenovovat a vybavit ji dobov\u00fdm n\u00e1bytkem a artefakty vykopan\u00fdmi z pozemku.<\/p>\n\n
Objev Hemingsiny pokoje je v\u00fdznamn\u00fd, proto\u017ee poskytuje pohled do \u017eivota zotro\u010den\u00fdch lid\u00ed v Monticello. Je to hmatateln\u00e1 p\u0159ipom\u00ednka lidsk\u00e9 ceny otroctv\u00ed a zpochyb\u0148uje romantizovan\u00fd pohled na Jeffersona jako laskav\u00e9ho majitele otrok\u016f.<\/p>\n\n
M\u00edstnost rovn\u011b\u017e vyvol\u00e1v\u00e1 ot\u00e1zky ohledn\u011b povahy Jeffersonova vztahu s Hemingsovou. A\u010dkoli Jefferson nikdy ve\u0159ejn\u011b neuznal sv\u00e9 otcovstv\u00ed Hemingsin\u00fdch d\u011bt\u00ed, existuj\u00ed siln\u00e9 nep\u0159\u00edm\u00e9 d\u016fkazy nazna\u010duj\u00edc\u00ed, \u017ee byl jejich otcem. Testy DNA proveden\u00e9 v roce 1998 nalezly p\u0159esv\u011bd\u010div\u00e9 d\u016fkazy o tom, \u017ee Hemingsin\u00ed potomci byli p\u0159\u00edbuzn\u00ed Jeffersona.<\/p>\n\n
Monticello byla 5 000 akrov\u00e1 plant\u00e1\u017e, na kter\u00e9 pracovaly stovky zotro\u010den\u00fdch lid\u00ed. Po cel\u00e1 desetilet\u00ed byla historie otroctv\u00ed na plant\u00e1\u017ei zleh\u010dov\u00e1na nebo ignorov\u00e1na. V posledn\u00edch letech v\u0161ak Monticello vynalo\u017eilo zna\u010dn\u00e9 \u00fasil\u00ed na uzn\u00e1n\u00ed a p\u0159edveden\u00ed sv\u00e9 historie otroctv\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n
Projekt Mountaintop je sou\u010d\u00e1st\u00ed tohoto \u00fasil\u00ed. Krom\u011b obnovy Hemingsiny pokoje zahrnuje projekt rekonstrukci Mulberry Row, mal\u00e9 vesnice, kde \u017eili a pracovali otroci. Monticello tak\u00e9 odhalilo textiln\u00ed obchod a st\u00e1je a pl\u00e1nuje obnovit i dal\u0161\u00ed otrock\u00e9 \u010dtvrti.<\/p>\n\n
Zachov\u00e1n\u00ed a interpretace historie otroctv\u00ed jsou z\u00e1sadn\u00ed pro pochopen\u00ed \u00fapln\u00e9 historie Spojen\u00fdch st\u00e1t\u016f. Otroctv\u00ed byla brut\u00e1ln\u00ed a nelidsk\u00e1 instituce, kter\u00e1 m\u011bla hlubok\u00fd dopad na \u017eivoty milion\u016f lid\u00ed. Zachov\u00e1n\u00edm a interpretac\u00ed historie otroctv\u00ed se m\u016f\u017eeme pou\u010dit z chyb minulosti a pracovat na vytvo\u0159en\u00ed spravedliv\u011bj\u0161\u00ed a rovnopr\u00e1vn\u011bj\u0161\u00ed spole\u010dnosti.<\/p>\n\n
Interpretovat v\u00fdznam Hemingsiny pokoje je slo\u017eit\u00fd \u00fakol. O jej\u00edm \u017eivot\u011b existuje jen omezen\u00e9 mno\u017estv\u00ed dokument\u00e1rn\u00edch d\u016fkaz\u016f a samotn\u00fd pokoj byl v pr\u016fb\u011bhu let pozm\u011bn\u011bn. Proto se historici a archeologov\u00e9 mus\u00ed spol\u00e9hat na \u0159adu r\u016fzn\u00fdch zdroj\u016f, aby sestavili jej\u00ed p\u0159\u00edb\u011bh.<\/p>\n\n
Jednou z v\u00fdzev je, \u017ee Jefferson\u016fv vnuk, kter\u00fd poskytl mnoho informac\u00ed o Hemingsin\u011b \u017eivot\u011b, byl notoricky nespolehliv\u00fdm zdrojem. Dal\u0161\u00ed v\u00fdzvou je, \u017ee pokoj byl v pr\u016fb\u011bhu let vyu\u017e\u00edv\u00e1n k r\u016fzn\u00fdm \u00fa\u010del\u016fm a nen\u00ed jasn\u00e9, zda v n\u011bm Hemingsov\u00e1 skute\u010dn\u011b \u017eila.<\/p>\n\n
Navzdory t\u011bmto v\u00fdzv\u00e1m pracuj\u00ed historici a archeologov\u00e9 na odhalen\u00ed cel\u00e9ho p\u0159\u00edb\u011bhu Hemingsov\u00e9 a jej\u00edho pokoje. Jejich pr\u00e1ce p\u0159in\u00e1\u0161\u00ed nov\u00e9 poznatky o \u017eivot\u011b zotro\u010den\u00fdch lid\u00ed v Monticello a pom\u00e1h\u00e1 n\u00e1m pochopit slo\u017eit\u00fd vztah mezi Jeffersonem a Hemingsovou.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
