Who was Harriet Jacobs and what did she do?
Harriet Ann Jacobs, writer, abolitionist and reformer, was born a slave in Edenton, North Carolina in 1813. She was the daughter of two slaves owned by different masters. The story of her life, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, Written by Herself, was published under the pseudonym Linda Brent in 1861.
What is the difference between John Jacobs’and Harriet Jacobs’given names?
However, John Jacobs (called ”William” in his sister’s book) mentions Edenton as his birthplace and uses the correct given names, but abbreviates most family names. So Dr. Norcom is ”Dr. Flint” in Harriet’s book, but ”Dr. N-” in John’s.
What did Norcom do to Harriet Jacobs?
Norcom sexually harassed Harriet when she was still a child. He refused to allow her to marry, regardless of the man’s status. Hoping to escape his attentions, Jacobs took Samuel Sawyer, a free white lawyer, as a consensual lover.
What did Harriet Jacobs succeed in buying and printing?
Jacobs succeeded in buying the stereotype plates and to get the book printed and bound. In January 1861, nearly four years after she had finished the manuscript, Jacobs’s Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl finally appeared before the public.
