1,350 words (approx. 5.4 pages) | 2 sources | 2005 United States


Paper Summary:

This paper examines why studying nineteenth and twentieth-century slave narratives is important. Doing so offers an opportunity to examine slavery and its aftermath from the perspective of those who were victimized by this inhuman institution. The paper shows that because of their compelling insights into the impact of slavery and racial prejudice on African Americans, the nineteenth-century narratives of Frederick Douglas and Harriet Jacobs are particularly worthy of study, as are the twentieth-century narratives of Benjamin Johnson, Lucretia Alexander, and Elijah Green.
