为什么值得读
- 直击读者内心并有力推导道德结论
- 展现了十九世纪废奴运动的道德愤怒
- 描绘了当时黑奴从事技术劳动的历史细节
这部令人难忘的小说讲述了 Tom 的故事,他是一位虔诚的基督教黑奴,因不愿让主人难堪而放弃了逃离束缚的机会。然而不久后他就被转卖给一名奴隶贩子并被沿密西西比河运往下游,在那里不得不忍受种种非人的虐待。这是一个讲述奴隶制极端残酷、以及忠诚与道德代价的震撼故事。该书首次出版时,极大巩固了北方各州的废奴情绪,至今仍被视为将一个国家推向内战的历史之作。“这么说,你就是写出这场伟大战争的小妇人。”Abraham Lincoln 曾如是

…通常是对读者不喜欢的事物的一种含蓄谴责。前者只是在主张一种不同的道德框架[0]。我不觉得文学作品里讲道德是件坏事。这里举的例子《汤姆叔叔的小屋》(Uncle Tom's Cabin),就做到了许多书做梦都想做到的事——掐住读者的脖子,把他们一路拖到结论面前。我从没和敏感度读者(sensitivity reader)合作过,也根本没打算合作…
…usually a veiled condemnation of something the reader doesn't like. The former is just arguing for a different moral framing[0]. I don't see morals in literature being a bad thing. The example used here, Uncle Tom's Cabin, did what a lot of books only dream they could do - grabbing their readers by the throat and dragging them to the conclusion. I've never worked with a sensitivity reader and I have no intention of working…

…影响,但 19 世纪人们对奴隶制有着强烈的道德义愤,而且发展得非常迅速,最早始于英国。我建议了解一下英国公众对《汤姆叔叔的小屋》出版的反响。> 那个大英帝国,其 19 世纪的财富正是靠着奴隶贸易的利润以及利用奴隶劳工提取的原材料制造业白手起家的,却处于一个极其有利的位置跳出来…
…effects, but there was a strong moral outrage to slavery in the 19th century and it developed very rapidly, starting in Britain.

《我的奋斗》只是禁书里最极端的例子,但如果你想理解二战历史,读它至关重要。《汤姆叔叔的小屋》则是另一个你可能不太容易见到的例子,但如果你想了解特定时期的意识形态,这也是一部必读的文学作品。你不需要赞同某本书才去读…
Mein Kampf is just the most stark example of a book that is forbidden, but very significant to read if you want to understand WWII history. Uncle Tom's Cabin is another example of a book you wont see but is another piece of literature you should read if you want to understand the ideology of a given time period. You don't have to agree with a book to read…
