Jacobs' Incident In The Life Of A Slave Girl
[ send me this paper ]
Harriet Jacobs wrote the
story of her life of enslavement, mistreatment, confinement and eventual
freedom shortly after the end of the Civil War. This 5 page paper
argues that Incidents in the Life of A Slave Girl was intended to be
read as a slave narrative and, as such to provide a historical
documentation of what the reality of slavery entailed - at least for a
young woman. It is also a political manifesto in that it argues that
the realities of slavery were not much different from the Northern
social norms of segregation. No additional sources are listed.

Revolutionaries and the Feminine Mystique
[ send me this paper ]
