लेखक के बारे में
Frederick Douglass (c.1818–1895) was an American social reformer, abolitionist, orator, writer, and statesman. Born into slavery in Maryland, Douglass endured a brutal upbringing before escaping to the North at age 20, where he would become a leading voice for the abolition of slavery and for the rights of black Americans. His eloquence with the pen and skill as an orator were discernible in landmark publications and speeches that bared the inhumanity of slavery and racism. His first autobiography, ‘Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave’ (1845), remains a seminal work in African American literature and antislavery activism. It was followed by ‘My Bondage and My Freedom’ (1855) and ‘Life and Times of Frederick Douglass’ (1881, revised in 1892), which provided a more comprehensive account of his life and the evolution of his thought. These works, compiled in the ‘Frederick Douglass – Ultimate Collection’, showcase his exceptional literary style that combined poignant narrative with a persuasive and powerful rhetoric that propelled the antislavery movement. Douglass’ writings and speeches, characterized by their clarity, moral force, and unwavering demand for justice and equality, made him one of the most influential figures of the 19th century in the fight for civil and human rights.
