The Lost Cause is a set of beliefs common in the white American South in the late 19th and early 20th century. While it was not taught in the North it did win acceptance there and helped the process of reunifying American whites. The beliefs portray the Confederate cause as a heroic one against great odds despite its defeat. The beliefs endorse the virtues of the antebellum South, viewing the American Civil War as an honorable struggle for the Southern way of life, while overlooking or downplaying the central role of slavery.
Yale Professor Roland Osterweis summarizes the content that pervaded "Lost Cause" writings:
The Lost Cause belief was founded upon several historically inaccurate elements. These include the claim that the Confederacy started the Civil War to defend states' rights rather than to preserve slavery, and the related claim that slavery was benevolent, rather than cruel.
The rhetoric of the historians amount to abstract platitudes, turning as usual a blind eye to the reality of the matter.
No one, especially in the South was prepared for the number of solider and civilian casualties. Losing almost a generation of men, they felt they lost a way of life. This was a difficult for Southerners to come to terms with, and in trying to get a grip on it the South develops what's called The Lost Cause. Memories, Myth and Memorial -- The Lost Cause is a short documentary produced by Bill Dudley with special guests Tracy J. Revels, Professor of History, Wofford College and Robert A. Taylor, Professor of Humanities and Communication, Florida History of Technology.
Learn about the political, social, and economic changes in the Union and the Confederacy and the Civil War’s long-term economic and intellectual impact. A New Birth of Freedom: The Civil War, 1861-1865 narrates the history of the American Civil War. While the course examines individual engagements and the overall nature of the military conflict, the focus is less on the battlefield than on political, social, and economic change in the Union and the Confederacy. Central to the account are the road to emancipation, the role of black soldiers, the nature of Abraham Lincoln’s wartime leadership, internal dissent in both the North and South, the changing position of women in both societies, and the war’s long-term economic and intellectual impact. We end with a look at the beginnings of Reco...

"This, our new government, is the first, in the history of the world, based on this great physical, philosophical and moral truth." Schott, Thomas E. Alexander H.

Those who contributed to the movement tended to portray the Confederacy's cause as noble and most of its leaders as exemplars of old-fashioned chivalry, defeated by the Union armies through overwhelming force rather than martial skill. Proponents of the Lost Cause movement also condemned the Reconstruction that followed the Civil War, claiming that it had been a...
