内容简介


Upon its publication in 1901, Up From Slavery became the most influential book written by an African American. As one of a handful of classic American utobiographies, its place in the lit-erary and historical canons is assured. This Norton Critical Edi-tion includes as its text the first book edition, published by
Doubleday, Page and Company. The text is fully annotated andincludes the index that appended the first book edition.
Contexts and Composition History includes a selection ofletters between Washington and his editor, Lyman Abbott, thatreveals the process by which Up From Slavery was planned and written. Reviews from The Nation, North American Review, and Colored American Magazine suggest the flavor of contemporary reaction to the book. An excerpt from My Larger Education includes Washingtons impressions of Frederick Douglass and his African American critics (among them W. E. B. Du Bois)
and reveals his reaction to the mounting criticism of his social, economic, and political programs during the last years of his life.
Criticism offers eight essays that present a variety of per-spectives on Up From Slavery, by W. E. B. Du Bois, Kelly Miller,August Meier, Louis R. Harlan, Sidonie Smith, James M. Cox,Houston A. Baker, Jr., and William L. Andrews. Together these essays represent ninety years of the best critical and historicalanalysis of Up From Slavery and its author. A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.
