  • Mary Boykin Chesnut, née Mary Boykin Miller, (31 mars 1823 – 22 novembre 1886) est une écrivaine américaine, connue pour son journal décrivant la société sudiste pendant la guerre de Sécession. Mariée à James Chesnut Jr, un avocat qui servit comme sénateur américain puis officier confédéré, elle évoluait dans les cercles de la grande bourgeoisie des planteurs de Caroline du Sud. Son journal ne limite toutefois pas son horizon à son environnement immédiat mais s'intéresse à l'ensemble de la société de son temps. (fr)
