Fugitive Vision: Slave Image and Black Identity in Antebellum Narrative
Michael A. Chaney
Analyzing the impact of black abolitionist iconography on early black literature and the formation of black identity, this book argues that the visual offered an alternative to literacy for current and former slaves, whose works mobilize forms of illustration that subvert dominant representations of slavery by both apologists and abolitionists.
