Harriet Jacobs and Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl: New Critical Essays Paperback - 1996

by Deborah M. Garfield (Editor); Rafia Zafar (Editor)


From the publisher

Harriet Jacobs, today perhaps the single most read and studied Black American woman of the nineteenth century, has not until recently enjoyed sustained, scholarly analysis. This anthology presents a far-ranging compendium of literary and cultural scholarship that will take its place as the primary resource for students and teachers of Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl. The contributors include both established Jacobs scholars and emerging critics; the essays take on a variety of subjects in Incidents, treating representation, gender, resistance, and spirituality from differing angles.

First line

As the coeditor of this volume, my tasks have been fairly specific and predictable: I have provided editorial feedback to the contributors, served as a liaison between scholars and press, and written this introductory essay.

From the rear cover

Harriet Jacobs, today perhaps the single most read and studied black American woman of the nineteenth century, has not--until now-been the subject of sustained, scholarly analysis. This anthology presents a farranging compendium of literary and cultural scholarship that is sure to become the primary resource for students and teachers of Jacobs's Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl. The contributors include both established Jacobs scholars and emerging critics; the essays take on a variety of subjects from Incidents, treating representation, gender, resistance, and spirituality from differing angles.
