Harriet Beecher Stowe (June 14, 1811 – July 1, 1896) was an
American
abolitionist
and
author
. Stowe's
novel
Uncle Tom's Cabin
(1852) depicted life for
African-Americans
under
slavery
; it reached millions as a novel and play, and became influential in the
United States
and
United Kingdom
and made the political issues of the 1850s regarding slavery tangible to millions, energizing anti-slavery forces in the American North, while provoking widespread anger in the
South
. Upon meeting Stowe,
Abraham Lincoln
allegedly remarked, "So you're the little lady who started
this great war
!"
[1]
The quote is apocryphal; it did not appear in print until 1896, and it has been argued that "The long-term durability of Lincoln's greeting as an anecdote in literary studies and Stowe scholarship can perhaps be explained in part by the desire among many contemporary intellectuals ... to affirm the role of literature as an agent of social change."
