Frederick Douglass’s Narrative of the lifetime of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave (1845) and Harriet Jacobs’s Incidents within the lifetime of a Slave lady (1861) are autobiographies, written by means of former slaves, who succeeded in escaping slavery and all its inexpressible cruelties. they're thought of of the main influential, and groundbreaking works of the Antebellum interval, which endure witness to slavery within the usa.
These narratives “that became dual classics in African American literature path” (cf. Boesenberg 1999: 121), will likely be in comparison, mentioned and analysed during this paper. despite the fact that, Boesenberg’s class of the texts as “twin classics” may be misinterpret and provides upward push to misinterpretation, because it will not be the main becoming time period. Twins are commonly considered being virtually a similar. One may perhaps argue that this isn't fullyyt precise for Jacobs’s and Douglass’s narratives.
The target of this paper might be to indicate a few the most important similarities and modifications among Douglass’s and Jacobs’s autobiographies. the 1st a part of the paper in brief introduces a few vital similarities of the 2 narratives. In a moment half concentration is going to receive to precise positive aspects of those texts: relatives ties, gender distinction, sexual exploitation, and manhood and womanhood. In a 3rd half the motif of literacy and its that means for the author’s liberation might be mentioned. the realization summarizes the preceded chapters and significantly disputes Boesenberg’s assertion of the dual classics.
