Selling more than 300,000 copies the first year it was published,
Stowe's powerful abolitionist novel fueled the fire of the human
rights debate in 1852. Denouncing the institution of slavery in
dramatic terms, the incendiary novel quickly draws the reader into
the world of slaves and their masters.
Stowe's characters are powerfully and humanly realized in Uncle
Tom, a majestic and heroic slave whose faith and dignity are never
corrupted; Eliza and her husband, George, who elude slave catchers
and eventually flee a country that condones slavery; Simon Legree,
a brutal plantation owner; Little Eva, who suffers emotionally and
physically from the suffering of slaves; and fun-loving Topsy,
Eva's slave playmate.
Critics, scholars, and students are today revisiting this
monumental work with a new objectivity, focusing on Stowe's
compelling portrayal of women and the novel's theological
underpinnings.
