Description:This edition includes the 3 must-read novels about slavery from American literature: Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe (1852) Twelve Years a Slave by Solomon Northup (1853) Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs (1861) "Uncle Tom's Cabin, or, Life Among the Lowly" is an anti-slavery novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe, published in 1852. Stowe, a Connecticut-born teacher at the Hartford Female Seminary and an active abolitionist, featured the character of Uncle Tom, a long-suffering black slave around whom the stories of other characters revolve. The sentimental novel depicts the reality of slavery while also asserting that Christian love can overcome something as destructive as enslavement of fellow human beings. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" was the best-selling novel of the 19th century and the second best-selling book of that century, following the Bible. It is credited with helping fuel the abolitionist cause in the 1850s. The book and the plays it inspired helped popularize a number of stereotypes about black people. "Twelve Years a Slave" (1853) is a memoir and slave narrative by American Solomon Northup. Northup, a black man who was born free in New York state, details his being tricked to go to Washington, D.C., where he was kidnapped and sold into slavery in the Deep South. After having been kept in bondage for 12 years in Louisiana by various masters, Northup was able to write to friends and family in New York, who in turn secured his release with the aid of the state. Northup's account provides extensive details on the slave markets in Washington, D.C. and New Orleans, and describes at length cotton and sugar cultivation and slave treatment on major plantations in Louisiana. The novel, a bestseller in its own right, was published eight years before the Civil War and is dedicated to Stowe. The memoir has been adapted as two film versions, produced as the PBS television movie Solomon Northup's Odyssey (1984) and the Oscar-winning film 12 Years a Slave (2013). "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl" (1861) is an autobiography by a young mother and fugitive slave, who edited the book for its author, Harriet Ann Jacobs. Jacobs used the pseudonym Linda Brent. The book documents Jacobs' life as a slave and how she gained freedom for herself and for her children. Jacobs contributed to the genre of slave narrative . She explores the struggles and sexual abuse that female slaves faced on plantations as well as their efforts to practice motherhood and protect their children when their children might be sold away. Jacob's book is addressed to white women in the North who do not fully comprehend the evils of slavery. She makes direct appeals to their humanity to expand their knowledge and influence their thoughts about slavery as an institution.
