Our Nig: Or, Sketches from the Life of a Free Black Tapa blanda - 2009
de Harriet E. Wilson; P. Gabrielle Foreman (Editor); Reginald Pitts (Editor)
This literary classic tells of a mixed-race girl, Frado, who is abandoned by her white mother after the death of the child's black father. Author Harriet Wilson combined and subverted two literary styles, the sentimental novel and the slave narrative, in writing Our Nig
Resumen
For the 150th anniversary of its first publication, a new edition of the pioneering African-American classic, reflecting groundbreaking discoveries about its author's life
First published in 1859, Our Nig is an autobiographical narrative that stands as one of the most important accounts of the life of a black woman in the antebellum North. In the story of Frado, a spirited black girl who is abused and overworked as the indentured servant to a New England family, Harriet E. Wilson tells a heartbreaking story about the resilience of the human spirit. This edition incorporates new research showing that Wilson was not only a pioneering African-American literary figure but also an entrepreneur in the black women's hair care market fifty years before Madame C. J. Walker's hair care empire made her the country's first woman millionaire.
