Synopsis

Harriet Beecher Stowe's powerful antislavery novel ""Uncle Tom's Cabin"", published in 1851, caused an immediate sensation and sparked heated debate. This addition to the ""Bloom's Guides"" series examines the structure and characters of the novel and provides critical analysis. Essays discuss the novel as an agent of social change, fairness in the novel, the novel as an abolitionist tract, and more. An annotated bibliography and a listing of other works by the author complement the text.
