or of Uncle Toms Cabin, a domestic comedy that examines slavery, Protestant theology, and gender differences in early America.First published in 1859, Harriet Beecher Stowes third novel is set in eighteenth-century Newport, Rhode Island, a community known for its engagement in both religious piety and the slave trade.
