Reseña del editor:
First published in serial form in 1851-52, this text is based on the edition published as a book later in 1852. The backgrounds section covers the Fugitive Slave Act and the ideals of the abolitionists, and the contemporary criticism section gives an indication of the huge acclaim that greeted the novel's publication.
Biografía del autor:
Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896) was an American abolitionist and author. Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin (1852) depicted life for African-Americans under slavery; it reached millions as a novel and play, and became influential in the U.S. and Britain and made the political issues of the 1850s regarding slavery tangible to millions. Elizabeth Ammons is the Harriet H. Fay Professor of Literature at Tufts University. She is the author of Conflicting Stories: American Women Writers at the Turn into the Twentieth Century, Edith Wharton's Argument with America, and Brave New Worlds: How Literature Will Save the Planet. She is the editor or co-editor of many books, including Tricksterism in Turn-of-the-Century American Literature: A Multi-Cultural Perspective, Uncle Tom's Cabin: A Casebook, American Color Writing, 1880-1920, Short Fiction by Black Women, 1900-1920, and the Norton Critical Edition of Edith Wharton's The House of Mirth.

It was quickly translated into 37 languages & has never gone out of print. The book had a far-reaching impact & deeply affected the national conscience of antebellum America. The NCE text is that of the 1852 book edition, published in 2-volumes by John P. Jewett & Company, Boston; original illustrations are included. Annotations are provided to assist the reader w/ obscure historical terms & biblical allusions. BACKGROUNDS & CONTEXTS includes a wealth of historical material relevant to slavery & abolitionism. Among the documents presented are Josiah Henson's 1849 slave narrative (named by Stowe as one of the sources for the novel); Solomon Northup's eyewitness account of an 1841 slave auction; Harriet Jacobs's narrative of her life as a 15-yr-old slave; 2 epistolary accounts by ex-slave & abolitionist William Wells Brown, which document events in "Uncle Tom's Cabin"; 2 crucial excerpts from Stowe's Key to "Uncle Tom's Cabin" which provide the real-life basis for characters & events in the novel; & accounts of Tom-Shows and the anti-Uncle Tom literature that sprang up in response to the novel's publication. Illustrative material includes slave advertisements, runaway slave posters, & illustrations for the first British edition of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Britain's premier illustrator, George Cruikshank, as well as popular illustrations from American editions of the novel. CRITICISM is arranged under two headings. "Nineteenth-Century Reviews and Reception" includes critiques by George Sand, William G. Allen & Ethiop (both from Frederick Douglass' Paper), George F. Holmes, & Paul Laurence Dunbar, among others. Twentieth-Century Criticism collects 5 of the best critical assessments of the novel's continuing impact on American society. W/ the exception of James Baldwin's groundbreaking essay, "Everybody's Protest Novel," the critical essays date from the years 1985 to 1992. Jane P. Tompkins investigates why the text was excluded from the canon for most of the 20th century. Robert S. Levine provides an overview of the text's popular reception & influence since publication, including current critical schools & critics. Hortense J. Spillers takes a textual/linguistic view in her comparison between Stowe & Ishmael Reed as "impression points in the literary imagination of slavery." And Christina Zwarg traces the influence Stowe's feminism had on her treatment of fatherhood & its effect on the home. A Chronology of Stowe's life & work & a Selected Bibliography are also included. * ABOUT THE EDITOR: ELIZABETH AMMONS is Professor of American Studies at Tufts University. She is the author of "Conflicting Stories: American Women Writers at the Turn of the Century" & "Edith Wharton's Argument w/America".
