As an American document of transforming power, Uncle Tom's Cabin is outranked only by the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Emancipation Proclamation. When Uncle Tom's Cabin was published in 1852, it became an international blockbuster, selling more than 300,000 copies in the United States alone in its first year. Progressive for her time, Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of the earliest writers to offer a shockingly realistic depiction of slavery. Her stirring indictment and portrait of human dignity in the most inhumane circumstances enlightened hundreds of thousands by revealing the human costs of slavery, which had until then been cloaked and justified by the racist misperceptions of the time. Langston Hughes called it "a moral battle cry," noting that "the love and warmth and humanity that went into its writing keep it alive a century later." Stowe's rich, complex, melodramatic novel movingly brings to life black slave society and the white lives that impinged upon it. It focuses on the stories of two slaves: the gentle but uncompromising Uncle Tom~sold down the river and brutalized by the planter whose name remains a synonym for cruelty, Simon Legree~and Eliza, who flees with her children across the frozen Ohio River to freedom. With its extraordinary capacity to move, outrage, and inspire its readers, it evoked a surge of indignation that made a crucial contribution to the abolition of slavery in America. First serialized in the National Era, an abolitionist paper, in forty weekly installments between June 5, 1851, and April 1, 1852, and published as a book on March 20, 1852, Uncle Tom's Cabin was an enormous success. Tolstoy deemed it a great work of literature 'flowing from love of God and man.' When Uncle Tom's Cabin appeared in Great Britain Queen Victoria sent Mrs. Stowe a note of gratitude, and enthusiastic crowds greeted the author in London on her first trip abroad in 1853. In an attempt to silence the many critics at home who denounced the work as vicious propaganda, Mrs. Stowe brought out A Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin in 1853, which contained documentary evidence substantiating the graphic picture of slavery she had drawn. Dred (1856), a second antislavery novel, did not enjoy the acclaim of Uncle Tom's Cabin, yet the author had already stirred the conscience of the nation and the world, fueling sentiments that would ignite the Civil War. When Abraham Lincoln met her at the White House in 1862 he allegedly remarked: 'So you're the little woman who wrote the book that started this great war!'. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 1242304
