Reseña del libro "The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, Or Gustavus Vassa, the African (en Inglés)"
Classics for Your Collection: goo.gl/U80LCr --------- The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, Or Gustavus Vassa, the African, first published in 1789, is the autobiography of Olaudah Equiano. The narrative is argued to be a variety of styles, such as a slavery narrative, travel narrative, and spiritual narrative. The book describes Equiano's time spent in enslavement, and documents his attempts at becoming an independent man through his study of the Bible, and his eventual success in gaining his own freedom and in business thereafter. Main themes: Slavery in West Africa and how the experience differed from slavery in the Americas. The African slave's voyage from Africa (Igboland) to the Americas and England. The journey from slavery to freedom and parallel journey from heathenism to Christianity. Institutional slavery can raise the master as above man as the slave is forced beneath, both corrupting the master with power and crippling the slave with the lack thereof. Facts and Trivia The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano was one of the first widely read slave narratives. Eight editions were printed during the author's lifetime, and it was translated into Dutch and German. The structure and rhetorical strategies of the book were influential and created a model for subsequent slave narratives. The different kinds of aspects and ideas in his narrative, such as travel, religion, and slavery, cause some readers to debate what kind of narrative his writing is: a slavery narrative, a spiritual narrative, or a travel narrative. The work has proven so influential in the study of African and African American literature, that it is frequently taught in both English literature and History classrooms in universities. The work has also been republished in the influential Heinemann African Writers Series. Scroll Up and Get Your Copy!
