Description Wiki
is an anti-slavery novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe. Published in two volumes in 1852, the novel had a profound effect on attitudes toward African Americans and slavery in the U.S., and is said to have "helped lay the groundwork for the [American] Civil War."[3] Stowe, a Connecticut-born woman of English descent was part of the religious Beecher family. A teacher at the Hartford Female Seminary and an active abolitionist, she featured the character of Uncle Tom in the novel, 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 slavery.[4][5][6] The title page illustrates a modest log cabin inhabited by a black family. Uncle Toms Cabin was the best-selling novel and the second best-selling book of the 19th century, following the Bible.[7][8] It is credited with helping fuel the abolitionist cause in the 1850s.[9] In the first year after it was published, 300,000 copies of the book were sold in the United States; one million copies were sold in Great Britain.[10] Eight power presses, running incessantly, could barely keep up with the demand.[11] In 1855, three years after it was published, it was called "the most popular novel of our day".[12] 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, he declared, "So this is the little lady who started this great war."[13] The quote is apocryphal; it did not appear in print until 1896, and it has been argued that "the long-term durability of Lincolns 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."[14] The book and the plays it inspired helped popularize a number of stereotypes about black people.[15] These include the affectionate, dark-skinned mammy; the pickaninny stereotype of black children; and the namesake character type of "Uncle Tom", describing a dutiful, long-suffering servant faithful to his white master or mistress. In recent years, the negative associations with Uncle Toms Cabin have, to an extent, overshadowed the historical impact of the book as a "vital antislavery tool".[16]

The narrative drive of Stowes classic novel is often overlooked in the heat of the controversies surrounding its anti-slavery sentiments. In fact, it is a compelling adventure story with richly drawn characters and has earned a place in both literary and American history. Stowes religious beliefs show up in the novels final, overarching theme the exploration of the nature of Christianity and how Christian theology is fundamentally incompatible with slavery
Description Penquin
When Abraham Lincoln met Harriet Beecher Stowe in 1862, he greeted her as the little woman who wrote the book that made this great war. He was exaggerating only slightly. First published in 1852, Uncle Tom s Cabin sold more than 300,000 copies in its first year and brought home the evils of slavery more dramatically than any abolitionist tract possibly could. With its boldly drawn characters, violent reversals of fortune, and unabashed sentimentality, Stowe s work remains one of the great polemical novels of American literature, a book with the emotional impact of a round of cannon fire. For almost thirty years, The Library of America has presented America s best and most significant writing in acclaimed hardcover editions. Now, a new series, Library of America Paperback Classics, offers attractive and affordable books that bring The Library of America s authoritative texts within easy reach of every reader. Each book features an introductory essay by one of a leading writer, as well as a detailed chronology of the author s life and career, an essay on the choice and history of the text, and notes. The contents of this Paperback Classic are drawn from Harriet Beecher Stowe: Three Novels, volume number 4 in The Library of America series. That volume also includes The Minister s Wooing and Oldtown Folks.

Description Original
DO NOT USE AS IS RUN THRU AI Uncle Tom's Cabin, or Life Among the Lowly, written by Harriet Beecher Stowe was published in 1852 and stands as one of the most famous anti-slavery novels of all time. The book had an immediate and profound effect on many people s attitudes toward slavery and African Americans in the United States and some say it helped lay the groundwork for the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln himself met Stowe just as the Civil War was starting and said, So this is the little lady who started this great war. It has been called the most influential novel ever written by an American author. The book focuses on stories involving a long-time slave, Uncle Tom and deals both with the horrific nature of slavery and the actual cost to human lives as well as the power of Christian love to overcome pain and suffering. While the book has recently been criticized for adding to negative stereotypes of African Americans, its impact on the abolition of slavery cannot be denied.
