Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Review of Uncle Tom's Cabin, or an Essay on Slavery It has long been a practice of abolition editors in the Northern States, when they were likely to run short of matter, to employ some worthy brother, to travel South, and manufacture articles for their papers. Many of these articles are falsehoods; and most of them, if not all, are exaggerations. N 0 man who will consent to go south, and perform this dirty work, is capable of writing truth. And moreover, many of the letters published in abolition papers, purporting to have been written from some part of the South, were concocted by editors and others at home; the writers never having traveled fifty miles from their native villages. But some of them do travel South and write letters and it is of but little consequence what they see, or what they hear; they have engaged to write letters, and letters they must write: letters too, of a certain character; and if they fail to find material in the South, it then devolves on them to manufacture it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Review of Uncle Tom's Cabin" is a critical analysis of Harriet Beecher Stowe's iconic anti-slavery novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin. The author, A. Woodward, presents readers with a comprehensive exam of Stowe's paintings, delving into its topics, characters, and the historical context wherein it was written and set. Woodward's review offers each reward and critique of "Uncle Tom's Cabin." He recognizes the unconventional's sizeable impact at the abolitionist movement within the United States for the duration of the nineteenth century, as well as its emotional electricity in conveying the horrors of slavery. However, he also gives a balanced evaluation, stating elements he believes are exaggerated or unrealistic. Throughout the overview, Woodward's evaluation goes beyond literary criticism to address the broader social and political implications of Stowe's paintings. He discusses how "Uncle Tom's Cabin" contributed to the escalating tensions between the Northern and Southern states on the eve of the American Civil War. Woodward's assessment serves as a valuable historic report, losing mild at the reception and interpretation of one of the most influential novels in American literature. It reflects the complicated and evolving discussions surrounding slavery, race, and human rights at some point of a pivotal length in American records.

Galeano’s elegy moves year by year through the century of Castro, Picasso, and Reagan, blending the many voices and varying locales of North and South America and forming a history that is stunning in its scope and savage beauty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Review of Uncle Tom's Cabin or, An Essay on Slavery An Anti-slavery Novel By A Woodward, M.D. A Student Study Guide Uncle Tom's Cabin; or, Life Among the Lowly, is an anti-slavery novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe. Published in 1852, the novel "helped lay the groundwork for the Civil War", according to Will Kaufman. 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. In the first year after it was published, 300,000 copies of the book were sold in the United States; one million copies in Great Britain. In 1855, three years after it was published, it was called "the most popular novel of our day." The impact attributed to the book is great, reinforced by a story that when Abraham Lincoln met Stowe at the start of the Civil War, Lincoln declared, "So this is the little lady who started this great war." The quote is apocryphal; it did not appear in print until 1896, and it has been argued that "The long-term durability of Lincoln's greeting as an anecdote in literary studies and Stowe scholarship can perhaps be explained in part by the desire among many contemporary intellectuals ... to affirm the role of literature as an agent of social change." The book and the plays it inspired helped popularize a number of stereotypes about black people. These include the affectionate, dark-skinned "mammy"; the "pickaninny" stereotype of black children; and the "Uncle Tom", or dutiful, long-suffering servant faithful to his white master or mistress. In recent years, the negative associations with Uncle Tom's Cabin have, to an extent, overshadowed the historical impact of the book as a "vital antislavery tool."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of Uncle Tom's Cabin presents the complex social forces that have influenced the reading of the novel. Gossett examines Stowe's early life and the circumstances that transformed her into a major figure in the antislavery struggle. He describes the process of the composition of the novel; compares its reception in the North, the South and in England; examines the idyllic pictures of slavery in the "anti-Tom" novels of the l850s; and compares the novel with several of the popular stage adaptations. The author reveals how the novel has been reconstituted by every reading of it and how the readings have proceeded from different social agendas for resolving the race problems. He also covers the main ideas and characters of the novel, displays its dual character (it was instrumental in ending slavery but fostered new stereotypes of blacks), and illuminates the importance of racial themes in American cultural and political history.

Rudnick Book Prize presented by the New England American Studies Association 2012 Runner-Up, John Hope Franklin Publication Prize presented by the American Studies Association 2012 Honorable Mention, Distinguished Book Award presented by the Society for the Study of American Women Writers Part of the American Literatures Initiative Series Beginning in the mid nineteenth century in America, childhood became synonymous with innocence--a reversal of the previously-dominant Calvinist belief that children were depraved, sinful creatures. As the idea of childhood innocence took hold, it became racialized: popular culture constructed white children as innocent and vulnerable while excluding black youth from these qualities. Actors, writers, and visual artists then began pairing white children with African American adults and children, thus transferring the quality of innocence to a variety of racial-political projects--a dynamic that Robin Bernstein calls "racial innocence." This phenomenon informed racial formation from the mid nineteenth century through the early twentieth. Racial Innocence takes up a rich archive including books, toys, theatrical props, and domestic knickknacks which Bernstein analyzes as "scriptive things" that invite or prompt historically-located practices while allowing for resistance and social improvisation. Integrating performance studies with literary and visual analysis, Bernstein offers singular readings of theatrical productions from blackface minstrelsy to Uncle Tom's Cabin to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz; literary works by Joel Chandler Harris, Harriet Wilson, and Frances Hodgson Burnett; material culture including Topsy pincushions, Uncle Tom and Little Eva handkerchiefs, and Raggedy Ann dolls; and visual texts ranging from fine portraiture to advertisements for lard substitute. Throughout, Bernstein shows how "innocence" gradually became the exclusive province of white children--until the Civil Rights Movement succeeded not only in legally desegregating public spaces, but in culturally desegregating the concept of childhood itself.
