...2, 2012 Humanities 112 Dr. Dennis Bull Strayer University Abstract The subject matter I chose for this assignment is Women’s Roles Then and Now. The women I chose to research and write about are Harriet Beecher Stowe and Sojourner Truth. In this paper I will discuss the history of these women and their historical status. I will try to suggest the opinions that they might have had during their lifetime and I will address the issue of what these women might think about women today. Harriet Beecher Stowe Harriet Beecher Stowe was the seventh child born to Lyman Beecher and Roxana on June 14, 1811. She was educated at Ma’am Kilbourn School, The Litchfield Academy and The Hartford Female Seminary. She married Calvin Ellis Stowe in January, 1836 who was a biblical scholar. She gave birth to seven children (Johnson-Lewis). Harriet Beecher Stowe was an abolitionist and an author. In 1852, she released the novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin. The work depicted the life of African American slaves. She based her writing on her won readings and personal observations. This novel led to energizing anti-slavery forces in the United States. Harriet Beecher Stow met President Abraham Lincoln in 1862 where he said, “So you are the little woman who wrote the book that started this Great War!” Harriet Beecher Stowe departed this life on July 1, 1896 (Bio True Story). Sojourner Truth Sojourner Truth, born Isabella Baumfree was born in 1797. She was sold several times, and while owned...

Many critics made comments on this novel. With the passage of time, attitudes to the book changed considerably. The history of African American in US has always been considered as a bitter story. In recent years, their status...

...A TEACHER’S GUIDE TO THE SIGNET CLASSIC EDITION OF BOOKER T. WASHINGTON’S UP FROM SLAVERY By VIRGINIA L. SHEPHARD, Ph.D., Florida State University S E R I E S E D I T O R S : W. GEIGER ELLIS, ED.D., ARTHEA J. S. REED, PH.D., UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA, EMERITUS and UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, RETIRED A Teacher’s Guide to the Signet Classic Edition of Booker T. Washington’s Up from Slavery 2 INTRODUCTION Booker T. Washington’s commanding presence and oratory deeply moved his contemporaries. His writings continue to influence readers today. Although Washington claimed his autobiography was “a simple, straightforward story, with no attempt at embellishment,” readers for nearly a century have found it richly rewarding. Today, Up From Slavery appeals to a wide audience from early adolescence through adulthood. More important, however, is the inspiration his story of hard work and positive goals gives to all readers. His life is an example providing hope to all. The complexity and contradictions of his life make his autobiography intellectually intriguing for advanced readers. To some he was known as the Sage of Tuskegee or the Black Moses. One of his prominent biographers, Louis R. Harlan, called him the “Wizard of the Tuskegee Machine.” Others acknowledged him to be a complicated person and public figure. Students of American social and political history have come to see that Washington lived a double life. Publicly he appeased the white establishment...
