Extractions: var isReferenceAnswers = true; BodyLoad('s'); On this page Library African American Literature: Home Library African American Literature Wilson , Harriet E. (c. 1827–?), first African American woman novelist. Rarely has an author's identity been so instrumental in the reclamation of her writing. Long thought to be white, Harriet E. Wilson and her one novel, Our Nig , had been mere footnotes to nineteenth-century American literary history, and obscure ones at that, until 1981. Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and David Curtis's research came on the heels of the republication of rediscovered white women writers and the incipient attention paid to early African American women authors. When in 1984 Gates established that Wilson was indeed the first Black person to publish a novel in the United States, there was a developing historical and critical context into which to fit her work. Our Nig 's republication is both a reflection of and a key contribution to the vast resurrection of writings by what Toni Morrison might call disremembered Black women.

Sympathy Another important aspect of omitting the conversation between Mr. and Mrs. Bellmont is that it maintains audience sympathy for Frado. If the audience reads about Frado getting saved constantly, or even once, in the Mrs. Bellmont's authoritative characteristics give her power. Such power speaks to Wilson's audience that women can inspire change in their community, specifically an end to cruelty against the African America community. Also, all the horrible sufferings Frado encounters throughout the story help to constantly force the reader to build sympathy for Frado, and by not showing someone truly stand up for Frado that sympathy is able to grow deeper. By omitting the conversation in which Mr. Bellmont stands up to Mrs. Bellmont, Wilson is able to further express the power women hold and at the same time prevents readers from losing sympathy for Frado. If readers saw scenes where Frado was helped, then readers would feel that no change was needed. Furthermore, if the readers did not see what Mrs. Bellmont could cause with her own authoritative power, then female readers might have doubted the power within themselves to change their society.
