About this product
Product Information
'Uncle Tom's Cabin' is the most popular, influential and controversial book written by an American. Stowe's rich, panoramic novel passionately dramatises why the whole of America is implicated in and responsible for the sin of slavery, and resoundingly concludes that only 'repentance, justice and mercy' will prevent the onset of 'the wrath of Almighty God!'. The novel gave such a terrific impetus to the crusade for the abolition of slavery that President Lincoln half-jokingly greeted Stowe as 'the little lady' who started the great Civil War. As Keith Carabine argues in his lively and provocative Introduction, the novel immediately provoked a storm of competing and contradictory responses among Northern and Southern readers, moderate and radical abolitionist groups, blacks and women, with regard to issues of form, genre, politics, religion, race and gender, that are still of great interest because they anticipate the concerns that vex and divide modern readers and critical constituencies. AUTHOR: Harriet Beecher Stowe was born in Litchfield, Connecticut, into a large family, on 14 June 1811. She was the daughter of Lyman Beecher, a Congregational minister, and his wife, Roxana. Her mother died at the age of 41. However two years later, Harriet and her sibling gained a stepmother who took over the household. When Stowe was eleven, she entered the seminary at Hartford, Connecticut, kept by her elder sister Catharine. The school had an advanced curriculum and she learned languages, natural and mechanical science, composition, ethics, logic and mathematics - subjects that were generally taught to male students. Four years later she was employed as an assistant teacher.In 1834 Stowe began her literary career when she won a prize contest in the Western Monthly Magazine. Soon, Stowe was a regular contributor of stories and essays, and her first book, 'The Mayflower', appeared in 1843. In 1836 Stowe married Calvin Ellis Stowe, a professor at her father's theological seminary. Over the next fourteen years, Stowe had seven children. In 1850 Calvin Stowe was offered a professorship at Bowdoin, and they moved to Brunswick, Maine. There she learned about life in the South and saw how cruel slavery was. The death of her infant Samuel from cholera led Stowe to compose her famous novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin. It was first published in the anti-slavery newspaper the National Era, from June 1851 to April 1852, and later in book form. Leo Tolstoy praised the work and it remained enormously popular, even after the Revolution. The 40-year-old mother of seven children sparked a national debate and, as Abraham Lincoln is said to have noted, a war. Stowe died on 01 July, 1896, at the age of eighty-five,
