ISBN10: 0393059464, ISBN13: 9780393059465, [publisher: W.W. Norton & Company] Hardcover Declared worthless and dehumanizing by James Baldwin in 1949, Stowe's classic has lacked literary credibility for fifty years. Now, in a ringing refutation, Henry Louis Gates Jr. demonstrates the literary transcendence of this masterpiece, first published in 1852. Even then it galvanized the American public as no other work of fiction has ever done. The editors re-animate pre-Civil War life; examining the lingering effects of the novel, they provide new insights into emerging race-relations, women's, gay, and gender issues. With reproductions of rare prints, posters, and photographs. Illus., 32 pages of color/150 b&w. 768p.
