Uncle Tom's Cabin

The novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin, has been an interesting read, though I've not gotten far into it. Mr. Haley's dialect is unique, not one I often read in, compared to a man of the same stature as he, Mr.   Shelby.

The introduction brought a new light onto the above listed characters, as though they may be well educated and appear "wise and humane" (Stowe xvi), they may not be in reality. The idea gave me something to look for as to why slaves and others react to the slave owners differently, despite the point of view of the character the novel takes place. The title of chapter one is called, "In Which the Reader is Introduced to a Man of Humanity" (Stowe 3). I am now inclined to look for how much of a humanitarian the slave owners are truly.

I apologize for the lateness, as I was away from internet access during the summer.
