Critical insights
Inhalt:
Klappentext: This volume analyses the more widely read slave narratives, including those by Frederick Douglass, Harriet Jacobs, and Solomon Northup, but also relatively lesser-known narratives, such as neo-slave narrative novels and slave narratives about slavery outside the U.S. Individual chapters provide researchers with a wide range of approaches to the slave narrative genre, from its origins to the present day.
