A 6 page essay that contrasts and compares Phillis Wheatley's poem "To the University of Cambridge, in New England" with Harriet Jacobs' autobiography, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl. The writer argues that for former slaves Phillis Wheatley and Harriet Jacobs, the use of the written word proved to be a means by which they could communicate to an audience their particular experience of slavery. Separated by roughly eighty years, Wheatley's language is more constricted and covert than that used by Jacobs because she lacked the support of the abolitionist movement, which allowed Jacobs to be more direct in her writing about slave conditions. However, this examination of their writing demonstrates, Jacobs also had to be covert in her message as she endeavored to justify herself not only as a person of color, but also as a woman. No additional sources cited.
