Uncle Tom's Cabin
by Harriet Beecher Stowe (18H-1896)

Harriet Beecher Stowe was a Connecticut-born
teacher at the Hartford Female Academy and an
active abolitionist. Her ground-breaking novel
Uncle Tom's Cabin; or, Life Among the Lowly treats
slavery as a central theme, and had a profound
effect on the North's view of slavery. First
published in 1852, the story focuses on the tale of
Uncle Tom, a long-suffering black slave, the central
character around whose life the other characters —
both fellow slaves and slave owners — revolve. The novel depicts the harsh
reality of slavery, while also showing that Christian love and faith can
overcome even something as evil as enslavement of fellow human beings.
