Two Articles by Frederick Douglass - Frederick Douglass

Popis produktu

‘Two Articles by Frederick Douglass’ houses two of the abolitionist’s most important essays on race and equality. The first essay, ‘My Escape from Slavery’, details his daring bid for freedom from a plantation as well as his experiences on reaching New York. The second, ‘Reconstruction’, is an open letter to the white readers of the ‘Atlantic Monthly’ magazine, highlighting the importance of extending the vote to African Americans and the need for equal rights. The two essays are startling pieces of writing, with both documenting the struggles faced by African Americans at the time. ´Two Articles´ will delight any person already familiar with Douglass' body of work. Frederick Douglass (1818-1995) was an American abolitionist and author. Born into slavery in Maryland, he was of African, European, and Native American descent. He was separated from his mother at a young age and lived with his grandmother until he was moved to another plantation. Frederick was taught his alphabet by the wife of one of his owners, a knowledge he passed on to other slaves. In 1838, he successfully escaped slavery by jumping on a north-bound train. After less than 24 hours, he was in New York and free. The same year, he married the woman that had inspired his run for freedom and started working actively as a social reformer, orator, statesman, and women’s rights defender. He remains most known today for his 1845 autobiography ""Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave."" saga egmont N new in stock ebook N N N N N N 138 CZK N N 784 N N N N N N N 2978 2 13227 19786 41738 two-articles-by-frederick-douglass-frederick-douglass Knihy knihy e773e08e46824209a00c35b8dbecb36f0cf96c0409feb90953990ff61e7e1fc9 23fe61516a452925deb5efe8b636be18691f20811bb3dc7e57805300b8424354 1467a7b4822deb839aacbe56da73c2a9ffe29fbcfad2612db1be98f848f93031 N N 2026-03-16 04:33:08 138 0 689690486 Why is the Negro Lynched? - Frederick Douglass https://www.kqzyfj.com/click-00cj_pid_token00-13717911?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.knihydobrovsky.cz%2Fe-kniha%2Fwhy-is-the-negro-lynched-689690486 https://www.knihydobrovsky.cz/thumbs/book-detail-fancy-box/mod_eshop/produkty/w/why-is-the-negro-lynched-9990003843463-5.jpg "Written just a year before his death, ‘Why is the Negro Lynched?’ is one of Douglass’ most moving and passionate speeches. Still sadly-pertinent today, his skill as a wordsmith is captured in passages that discuss everything from law and respect for human life to religion and the necessity for belonging. An expert orator, Douglass presents his arguments as though they were part of a court case, deftly switching between the roles of prosecution and defence, before passing sentence against the white establishment of the time.

The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave was published ten years before in 1845, while The Life and Times of Frederick Douglass was published twenty-five years later. Frederick Douglass was born a slave and escaped to freedom in his twenties. My Bondage and My Freedom (1855) was written after he had established himself as a newspaper editor. In this book, Douglass expands upon his previous accounts of his years as a slave. With great psychological penetration, he probes the longterm and corrosive effects of slavery and comments upon his active resistance to the segregation he encounters in the North. saga egmont N new in stock ebook N N N N N N 333 CZK N N 784 N N N N N N N 2978 2 13227 19786 41738 my-bondage-and-my-freedom-frederick-douglass Knihy knihy 01e8fc304f084a2fa107660f61123de119e356c0e4646ef956a2a48dac1e8b98 9e0a4c744ab2280dab3ba7dc22e131224cd6fdbd441c44e2ee862e439361920f 376b31f7318ee56df53c2d57237d14100360e1700d0ef6b4b44e052b1a8b822a N N 2026-03-16 04:33:08 333 0 689691329 John Brown - Frederick Douglass https://www.kqzyfj.com/click-00cj_pid_token00-13717911?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.knihydobrovsky.cz%2Fe-kniha%2Fjohn-brown-689691329 https://www.knihydobrovsky.cz/thumbs/book-detail-fancy-box/mod_eshop/produkty/j/john-brown-9990003843494-5.jpg "Written to honour the life of the eponymous abolitionist and activist, ‘John Brown’ is the transcript of a speech delivered by Douglass in 1860. While some saw Brown as a radical and a criminal, Douglass saw his friend as a man prepared to sacrifice his life so that others might be free. Passionate and powerful, the speech not only extolls Brown’s virtues, but also highlights the political and social issues faced by African Americans at the time. ´John Brown´ is an important read for anyone with an interest in social justice and injustice.

Proving that the pen can be mightier than the sword, Douglass deftly used his linguistic abilities to create a rousing appeal to the English to shame America into abolishing slavery.
