的有关信息介绍如下：Uncle Tom's Cabin is an anti-slavery novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe, published in 1852. The novel helped lay the groundwork for the Civil War, according to Will Kaufman. Stowe, a Connecticut-born teacher at the Hartford Female Academy and an active abolitionist, featured the character of Uncle Tom, a long-suffering black slave around whom the stories of other characters—both fellow slaves and slave owners—revolve. The sentimentally charged novel depicts the reality of slavery while asserting that Christian love can overcome the dehumanizing effects of slavery. It became one of the most widely read and deeply penetrating books of its time, selling hundreds of thousands of copies and being translated into numerous languages. Many historians credit the novel with contributing to the outbreak of the Civil War.
