Description
1883 Nights with Uncle Remus Joel Harris Illustrated African American Folklore
Br’er Rabbit and crew are the basis and inspiration for Disney’s black folklore, controversial tale “Song of the South” and popular attraction Splash Mountain!
‘Uncle Remus’ by Joel C. Harris defines many of the stereotypes of the African American people, including dialect and slavery themes. Harris himself said that ‘Uncle Remus’ was
‘a sympathetic supplement to Stowe’s wonderful defense of slavery as it existed in the South. [She] attacked the possibilities of slavery with all the eloquence of genius, but the same genius painted the portrait of the Southern slave-owner and defended him.’ (Bernstein, 2011).
This rare first edition of ‘Nights with Uncle Remus’ is notable for being one of the classic American stories of slavery and African-American literature.
