Book Synopsis The Bondwoman's Narrative by : Hannah Crafts
Download or read book The Bondwoman's Narrative written by Hannah Crafts and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2002-04-02 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Possibly the first novel written by a black woman slave, this work is both a historically important literary event and a gripping autobiographical story in its own right. When her master is betrothed to a woman who conceals a tragic secret, Hannah Crafts, a young slave on a wealthy North Carolina plantation, runs away in a bid for her freedom up North. Pursued by slave hunters, imprisoned by a mysterious and cruel captor, held by sympathetic strangers, and forced to serve a demanding new mistress, she finally makes her way to freedom in New Jersey. Her compelling story provides a fascinating view of American life in the mid-1800s and the literary conventions of the time. Written in the 1850's by a runaway slave, THE BONDSWOMAN'S NARRATIVE is a provocative literary landmark and a significant historical event that will captivate a diverse audience.

Eliot and Rose have done a fine job. Their volume can be heartily recommended. “ Adrian Johns, Technology and Culture From the early Sumerian clay tablet through to the emergence of the electronic text, this Companion provides a continuous and coherent account of the history of the book. A team of expert contributors draws on the latest research in order to offer a cogent, transcontinental narrative. Many of them use illustrative examples and case studies of well-known texts, conveying the excitement surrounding this rapidly developing field. The Companion is organized around four distinct approaches to the history of the book. First, it introduces the variety of methods used by book historians and allied specialists, from the long-established discipline of bibliography to newer IT-based approaches. Next, it provides a broad chronological survey of the forms and content of texts. The third section situates the book in the context of text culture as a whole, while the final section addresses broader issues, such as literacy, copyright, and the future of the book.

Book excerpt: "The art of Jane Wooster Scott speaks to all generations of living Americans, and to generations yet unborn, who savor our nation's rich heritage in all its colors and manifestations." "Wooster Scott, a Philadelphia native, has traveled the length and breadth of the United States recording an era that sets forth the standards and values of this country. Combining a keen eye for beauty, humor and the zestful energy of this youthful colossus of the Western Hemisphere, Wooster Scott captures the essence of the American people, their traditions and institutions." "Her naif art brings to life the broad American landscape, dotted as it is with cities, towns and villages unique to our culture, along with farms, factories and waterfronts that are singularly New World. She offers us a perfect portrait of ourselves and our forefathers and a spark of hope for how we will be in the centuries ahead." "As a painter, Wooster Scott has succeeded in advancing the intricate discipline of naif art to its highest plane, popularizing primitive American painting in Europe, Asia and other parts of the world. She has been hailed by critics nationwide, but the truest test of the artist's worth is her popularity among collectors of her original canvases and countless thousands who treasure her lithographs and serigraphs." "Some 175 paintings represented here in An American Jubilee, The Art of Jane Wooster Scott reflect twenty years of dedication to preserving the priceless panoply of a nation unlike any other in the history of mankind in which the dignity of man has blossomed as never before."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
