African American Slave Narratives: Excerpts and Commentary for the Classroom explores African American history and literature through the lens of the slave narrative tradition. The book examines how these narratives contribute to understandings of resistance, self-knowledge, and cultural identity, presenting selections and commentary that anchor the material within historical, moral, and literary frameworks.
The book is organized thematically, posing questions about origin, personal and cultural meaning, morality, and destiny as reflected in the narratives. It addresses the rise of African American literary tradition, the impact of protest and agency, and concepts such as religious expression, mental bondage, and social roles like the figure of the "tragic mulatta." Supplementary material includes commentary that provides historical context and literary analysis, a chronology of significant events from 1400 to 1870, and a list of suggested readings for further research.
African American Slave Narratives is suitable for undergraduate courses in African American Studies, American Literature, and Humanities, and is designed to support instruction and self-study for students interested in the historical and literary context of African American experience.
