The book begins by examining writing about slavery and race by both philosophers and by authors such as Aphra Behn. It considers self-representation in the works of Ignatius Sancho, Olaudah Equiano, James Williams and Mary Prince. The final section reads literary and cultural texts associated with the abolition movements of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth centuries, moving beyond traditional accounts of the documents of that movement to show the importance of religious writing, children's literature and the relationship between art and abolition.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eFRANCES BOTKIN Assistant Professor of English, Towson University, Baltimore, USA\r\nDEIRDRE COLEMAN Associate Professor, Department of English, University of Sydney, Australia\r\nLEO COSTELLO Curatorial Assistant, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, USA\r\nPETER KITSON Professor of English, University of Dundee, UK\r\nDIANA PATON Lecturer in Caribbean History, University of Newcastle, UK\r\nJOHANNA M.
