Abstract

Uncle Tom is the protagonist in the book Uncle Tom’s Cabin who is loyal, honest, selfless and noble, but becomes a victim of slavery. What caused it? It includes the history of slavery and the influence of Christian which teaches people piety, resign oneself to adversity, fraternity, etc. Uncle Tom is loyal to his masters, and meekly accepts any situation. He regards everyone with the heart of love. Furthermore, Tom has a weak part of the character. While others struggled for the same miserable

condition, Tom chose to endure; Tom is also a stubborn person. No matter what great price he will pay for, he still insists his principles. Through the analysis of Tom's fate, people can understand the evil of slavery, and appeal to the thinking and grasp of his own fate.

Key words: Uncle Tom, master, slavery, Christian, character

1. Introduction

Harriet Beecher Stowe, a woman who wrote Uncle Tom’s Cabin, was actually the person who waged the war in literal field. By seeing salves’ poor life and slave

owners’ cruelty in America, Stowe determined to write a book to expose the American law, to show her sympathy on the miserable slaves and to remind the whites’ and the whole world’s humanity. The book is called Uncle Tom’s Cabin. This book was mainly written into two parts. For one part, it narrated George Harris and her wife Eliza’s struggle for freedom. For the other part, it described Uncle Tom’s ups and

downs in his whole life. Unlike George Harris, Uncle Tom accepted all prosperities and adversities befalling upon him, he accepted them sedately and meekly by the support of his Christian religion. However, God could not save him. Under the evil slavery, Uncle Tom was killed. Not only did Harriet Beecher Stowe exalt George Harris’ bravery, but also she sympathized Uncle Tom’s tragedy. This thesis is to analyze the reasons of Uncle Tom’s fate from three parts.

2. Historical Conditions

Uncle Tom doesn’t live in a good time like us, instead, he lives in a bad time, when slaves like him are being treated and traded casually.

2.1The condition of American history at that time Uncle Tom lives in the time when slaves prevailed. At that time, most slaves are sold in the plantation, they are terribly treated, like a machine, work from day to night, not enough food, no money, bad living condition, etc. In slaves’ eyes, plantation is a prison. Here they even have no legal or freedom marriage. According to the system at that time, the slave’s descendants are the private property of slave owners, who can be sold. Of course, the slave families always face the separated fate. There are also some kind-hearted slave owners, but this does not mean safe for slaves, they still belong to the private property of slave owners. The miserable fate not only will happen at any time, but also they will be sold at any time because of a variety of reasons. For example, Tom is sold because his good master is in economic troubles.

2.2 Uncle Tom’s helpless situation during that period

Uncle Tom is a good slave, but he cannot escape his tragic fate. His owners can deal with him at any time according to their need. Mr. Shelby is the first master of Uncle Tom. He is kind and generous to his slaves. But when he meets financial problems, he sells Tom though he likes Uncle Tom very much. After Uncle Tom is taken away by Haley, luckily, Uncle Tom meets Eva and St. Clare, who buys him and treats him well. Unfortunately, Eva and St. Clare both dies, after St. Clare’s death, his wife sells Uncle Tom again. In Uncle Tom’s life, he meets two kind masters, but he also meets the cruel Mr. Legree and he begins his tragic fate. In his new owner’s plantation, slaves are badly treated. Uncle Tom even has no right to read his favorite Bible. At last, Uncle Tom was tragic killed by his master.

Uncle Tom cannot change his fate because he is only his owners’ private property.

A slave’s fate entirely depends on his master's character. At that time, the fact is that the whole society system exploits the slaves. No one can protect slaves. This is the condition of American history at that time, so Uncle Tom as well as other slaves has no choice. Maybe there is no person can escape the historical background. A person’s

fate must be influenced by the time environment in which you are living. Uncle Tom’s tragic fate is not only a personal tragedy; it is also a tragedy of the time. 3. The influence of Christian religion to Uncle Tom

Uncle Tom is just a devout Christian. He thinks that God gives people the nature of kindness. People have to temporarily endure the suffering, waiting for God to give people the good arrangement. In most cases, he just listens to the arrangements of the things and will not have any resistance. He only tries his best to do a thing well which the master asks, in order to minimize his own disaster. He never thinks of escape or revenge and he always believes that God has his arrangement and at last God will save him. So whether it is bitterer, he meekly accepts everything.

3.1. His obedience to Mr. Shelby

At the beginning of the novel, Mr. Shelby, is the first and most generous master of Uncle Tom. Mr. Shelby trusts Uncle Tom and believes he is a pious,

steady, sensible, uncommon fellow. Mr. Shelby asks Tom to go to Cincinnati alone, to do business for him, “I trust you because I think you are a Christian---I know you would not cheat’’ (Stowe 1999:2). Tom does good jobs and he wins the highest place in front of Mr. Shelby. But he owes lot sum money that could not be paid off easily. Mr. Shelby is so reluctant; he finally decides to sell Tom to clear the debt. When Uncle Tom knows that his master has decided to sell him to South. He just stays and refuses Eliza’s suggestion to escape. This is Uncle Tom. He believes he should be loyal to the master, and he feels that no matter where he is, God will be with him. 3.2 His obedience to Mr. Legree

Mr. Legree is a cruel slave owner. As long as he is not happy with a slave’s performance, he would be crazy to beat him, until he surrenders. He cannot stand that the slaves have religious beliefs. In this environment, the slaves are insensitive and only care about their lives. Unluckily, Mr. Legree is also the master of Uncle Tom. It is obvious that Uncle Tom suffers from a lot of tribulation. Mr. Legree often beats him and insults Uncle Tom with language. He even is not willing to let Uncle Tom read his favorite Bible. But when Uncle Tom faces such cruel owner, he still decides to tolerate. When Cathy advises Uncle Tom to catch the chance to kill Mr. Legree , then they flee together, he refused. Uncle Tom thinks that they must be patient and wait for God’s arrangement. He gives up the chance of freedom again. In his mind, he insists that God can help him and he must obey the arrangement of God. No matter how hard, he always is in waiting for his God. But obedience can’t help him to escape the suffering. Obedience sometimes only leads to death.

3.3 Uncle Tom’s Christian Love for Humanity

As a Christian, Uncle Tom has all the characters a Christian should own, such as faith, forgiveness and endurance. Uncle Tom loves all the people around him, even

his enemies. But most of time, his love leads to himself a disaster. His master does not like him to be so friendly and he hopes that his salves can do things as his desire. He will use full of any methods to reach his aims for retaining his own master status. 4. Uncle Tom’s Personal Failing

A person’s natural character must influence his fate. If a person has the weak personality, his fate will not be in his own hands. Instead, if a person dares to struggle for what he wants, his condition will better under his own efforts. Comparison between George Harris and Uncle Tom, as the novel ends, Uncle Tom dies, but George Harris gains the freedom. The reason is that George Harris struggles for his family and himself.

4.1 Uncle Tom’s stubborn

Actually, Uncle Tom has two opportunities to escape. The first time, when he knows Mr. Shelby intends to sell him, he has the passport and can use it to escape. The second time, when Legree tortures him and Cassy and Emeline ask him to escape with them, he finally refuses. Uncle Tom insists to stay no matter what happens and no matter what others say, he always insists his ideas. He thinks it is right that he

should believe God and wait for his help. He never considers that the only way to gain freedom is just by struggling. He is so stubborn that he obeys all religious doctrines. No one can change his faith.

4.2 Uncle Tom’s cowardice

The cruel slavery is one of the reason that killed Uncle Tom, but not the same to other slaves. George Harris is an example; he is another slave in Uncle Tom’s Cabin. He is the opposite image of Uncle Tom. George Harris wants to gain freedom, so he sticks to struggle to the last minute of his life. It is no doubt that he and his wife have to face various danger and difficulties, but they never gives up. George Harris makes his declaration:” We stand here as free, under God’s sky, as you are; by the great lord that made us, we’ll fight for our liberty till we die’’(Stowe 1999:195). Finally he gains his freedom. However, Uncle Tom becomes a sacrifice in that society. Uncle Tom always insists to his faith, he is afraid that he doubts God. When the bad things come, he fears to change. He believes that he can only rely on God who would help him. He feels that he has no ability to change the status. He does not want to struggle, just want to wait. That’s why he loses freedom forever.

Conclusion

In Uncle Tom’s time, slaves are poorly treated. They are controlled by their master who can trade and treat them casually. They can’t decide their own fate. However, they can also change their fates by their own struggle. Harriet Beecher

Stowe wrote the book Uncle Tom’s Cabin, in order to encourage people to struggle for freedom and equality. George Harris’ struggle makes him gain freedom; instead, Uncle Tom’s endurance leads to death. Harriet Beecher Stowe wanted to tell the reader that slavery is so evil and people should have the right to gain their freedom. Actually, Uncle Tom is a good person, but he shouldn’t be so “good” in such cruel society, he should struggle for his fate.

汤姆叔叔的小屋英文评价 篇三:《读《汤姆叔叔的小屋》有感》

读《汤姆叔的小屋》有感

哲人说，名著只有反复读才能体会到书的精髓。我读《汤姆叔的小屋》已经有四五遍了，如今才能领略到几分滋味。

汤姆给我的印象，起初便只是一个“忠”字，忠于主人、终于上帝耶和华，忠于自己的信仰。他那份过于执着的教条的忠诚，让我有一种头皮发麻近乎窒息的感觉，在列格雷的铁鞭和狂怒的咒骂下，他依然平静地忠于主人，甚至当卡西夫人希望带他一起逃走时，他竟然拒绝砍死睡梦中的列格雷、拒绝逃走，他竟还劝卡西去相信上帝，去原谅、去爱虐待他们的魔鬼-列格雷。就因为列格雷是他的主人，他要一丝不苟地按照上帝的指示去爱每一个人，至死不渝的忠于自己的主人，绝不背叛主人。主人再无情，汤姆也不会无义的。我不禁想尖叫，他的这份忠诚很恐怖，像寒冬里硬把炭火往人的身上泼，对待阴森冷酷的社会，没有反抗，只有顺从、只有忠诚，但这份感情并不会感化像恶狗一样的奴隶主，只会令他恐惧，进而令他疯狂地绞杀。所以那些像比干、伍子胥、寇准、汤姆这种忠诚，不仅不会有益于苍生，反而会使恶人更猖獗，使社会更黑暗 。其实有时候像中国儒学和黑奴们所信仰的所谓忠诚未必是什么好事。

汤姆对万能的上帝的信奉和忠诚到了一种任凭电击雷劈都不会动摇的地步，他从未怀疑过上帝的真实性和所谓的上帝的力量，就在他遍体鳞伤、奄奄一息地躺在狭小的稻草上，被蚊子叮咬的浑身是血的时候，他也依然相信他的上帝一定会解救他脱离苦海的，到死他都没有停止吟诵圣经，到死他还睁大眼睛渴望看到天堂的光明。其实一直是他自己将自己的灵魂禁锢在躯体里，他并没有过希望，他只相信上帝会改变这所有的不幸，此时我也不知道是该怨恨榨人骨髓的奴隶制度，还是应该批判教堂教会麻痺人的每一条神经的无耻，还是该将所有的哀怒倾洒给那些原本善良却又无知的像汤姆一样的“奴隶”们呢？

不过，汤姆的信仰和忠诚却又并不是像日本大兵那样，无论是非善恶美丑对错都无条件地服从于大日本帝国和天皇陛下以及武士道精神。汤姆的忠诚和服从，是以爱和信任为基础的，他从不违背正义的标准去按主人的指示为非作歹，就像他不想去大可怜的露西，所以宁愿替她挨打。他说：“我不会打她，您可以让我不停地在地里为您干活，这我毫无怨言，但只要我有一口气在，我就不会做我认为不对的事情，不管您怎么打骂我，我也不会干的。”因为上帝向他讲述了多么美丽、和谐的天堂，只有好人才能上天堂。上帝告诉了他要爱、要忠诚、要善良，这就是汤姆单纯的判断标准。其实对与错也就是如此简单，很多事情也并不是那么复杂的，只需要一个简单的道德判断标准，然后去坚持、信奉、守卫住它。

汤姆临终前的最后一句话是：“谁又能把我和上帝和爱分开呢？”我才知道，在他的心里，上帝与爱是一体的，上帝就是爱的化身，是上帝给了他爱。所以他相信上帝也是爱他的。他爱并信任所有的人，他也在感化着那些本性善良的人们。其实他的信仰和忠诚是无瑕的，是出于爱的，因为爱从未错过。

现在一定会有人嘲笑汤姆叔叔教条式的那份忠诚是多么的愚蠢和无知，而今天缺少的恰恰是这份忠诚，追根到底缺少的是爱。 缺少了对朋友的爱，就对友谊不忠诚；缺少了对父母的爱，就是对亲情不忠诚，是畜生；缺少了对国家的爱，就是对国家的不忠诚，是卖国贼。

这样做不会就像汤姆一样傻傻地忠诚了吧，不会像汤姆一样死于谏言了吧，可以安适地生活了吧。的确会暂时保全自己，以不忠来换取一秒钟的安宁，但没有汤姆的精神的代价是葬送整个国家。

nowadays， people still regard tom as a symbol of never giving up pursuing to realize his value。汤姆叔叔的小屋读后感英文版。 tom did not give up his belief regardless of the unbearable destiny， and he proved us that the black were self-governed individualities， not born to slaves working for the white。 to some extent， it is safe to draw the conclusion that tom would be the heretical model at all events。
