Mary Boykin Chesnut, geborene Miller (* 31. März 1823 bei , South Carolina; † 2. November 1886 in Camden, South Carolina), war Autorin und eine der bekanntesten Zeitzeuginnen des Amerikanischen Bürgerkrieges. Als Ehefrau von Senator und Brigadegeneral James Chesnut junior hatte Mary Chesnut Zugang zu den höchsten gesellschaftlichen Kreisen der Südstaaten und konnte so die wichtigsten Ereignisse und Entscheidungen des Bürgerkrieges direkt miterleben. Vom 18. Februar 1861 bis zum 26. Juni 1865 hielt sie diese Eindrücke in einem heute vielbeachteten Tagebuch fest. Erwähnung findet dieses unter anderem in der Filmreihe Der Amerikanische Bürgerkrieg von Ken Burns und in dem mit dem Pulitzer-Preis ausgezeichneten Standardwerk über den Sezessionskrieg, Für die Freiheit sterben, von James M. McPherson. Zwischen 1881 und 1884 arbeitete Chesnut an einer endgültigen Fassung ihres Buches, das 1905 veröffentlicht wurde. Weitere Veröffentlichungen, darunter die von C. Vann Woodward, folgten. Woodward erhielt dafür 1981 den Pulitzer-Preis für Geschichte. Mary Chesnut starb 1886, ein Jahr nach ihrem Ehemann, und wurde an dessen Seite auf dem Friedhof Knights Hill Cemetery in Camden, South Carolina, beigesetzt. (de) Mary Boykin Chesnut (née Miller) (March 31, 1823 – November 22, 1886) was an American author noted for a book published as her Civil War diary, a "vivid picture of a society in the throes of its life-and-death struggle." She described the war from within her upper-class circles of Southern slaveowner society, but encompassed all classes in her book. She was married to a lawyer who served as a United States senator and Confederate officer.Chesnut worked toward a final form of her book in 1881–1884, based on her extensive diary written during the war years. It was published in 1905, 19 years after her death. New versions were published after her papers were discovered, in 1949 by the novelist Ben Ames Williams, and in 1981 by the historian C. Vann Woodward, whose annotated edition of the diary, Mary Chesnut's Civil War (1981), won the Pulitzer Prize for History in 1982. Literary critics have praised Chesnut's diary—the influential writer Edmund Wilson termed it "a work of art" and a "masterpiece" of the genre—as the most important work by a Confederate author.
