Uncle Tom’s Cabin & Frederick Douglass’s Narrative
Question Description
I need help with a History question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.
Read the following excerpt from Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin, involving a confrontation between Simon Legree and Tom, the slave. Compare this fictional account with Douglass’s account of his confrontation with the overseer Covey in Chapter 10 of the Narrative.
What do these accounts tell us about slave rebellion, its perils, and its rewards? Should we take these accounts as inspiration? As isolated instances in a sea of pain?
Compare the scale of these rebellions with the larger slave rebellions of Nat Turner and others. How much was slavery a constant state of war between slaveowner and enslaved?
