Continuing our survey of the 19th century, let's take a look now at Harriet Beecher Stowe. Now Stowe is best known for her novel Uncle Tom's Cabin, a book that details the harshness of plantation life in the south. The book was extremely popular in the United States as well as in other countries. Ironically though, for all the attention given to Uncle Tom's Cabin, it's far from Stowe's best work. She did write one other novel about life in the south, but much of her best work has nothing with the south at all. In fact, Stowe's best writing is about village life in the New England's states in the 19th century. In recording to the customs of the villages she wrote about, Stowe claimed that her purpose was to reflect the images as realistically as possible. She usually succeeded, for her settings were often described accurately and in detail. In this sense, she was an important forerunner to the realistic movement that became popular later in the 19th century. She was one of the first writers to use local dialect for her characters when they spoke. And she did this for 30 years before Mark Twain popularized the use of local dialect. It makes sense that Stowe would write about New England life, since she was born in Connecticut. As a young woman there, she worked as a teacher. The teaching job helped lead to her first published work, a geography book for children. Later when she was married, her writing helped her support her family financially. Throughout her life, she wrote poems, travel books, biographical sketches and children's books, as well as novels for adults.
继续我们对19世纪的调查，让我们看看哈里特·比彻·斯托。现在斯托最出名的是她的小说《汤姆叔叔的小屋》，这本书详细描述了南方种植园生活的严酷。这本书在美国和其他国家都非常受欢迎。然而，讽刺的是，尽管汤姆叔叔的小屋受到了人们的关注，但它与斯托的最佳作品相去甚远。她确实写过一本关于南方生活的小说，但她的大部分作品都与南方无关。事实上，斯托的最佳作品是关于19世纪新英格兰国家的乡村生活。在记录她所写的村庄的习俗时，斯托声称她的目的是尽可能逼真地反映画面。她通常是成功的，因为她的设置经常被准确和详细地描述。从这个意义上说，她是19世纪后期流行的现实主义运动的重要先驱。她是最早使用当地方言为她的角色说话的作家之一。她这样做了30年马克·吐温推广了当地方言的使用。斯托会写新英格兰的生活，因为她出生在康涅狄格州。作为一个年轻的妇女，她在那里当老师。这份教学工作帮助她完成了她的第一本出版作品《儿童地理书》。后来，当她结婚时，她的写作帮助她在经济上支持她的家庭。在她的一生中，她写诗、旅行书、传记体小品和儿童读物，以及成人小说。
