  • 2018 12 Years a Slave​ Guiding Questions Synopsis: Northup's
    Name _______________________________ USI H - 2018 12 Years a Slave Guiding Questions ​ Synopsis: Northup's book is a personal narrative about slavery, but at the same time, he provides us with information about several groups of people with whom he had contact: southern whites, free blacks, and northern whites (indirectly). In a larger sense, Northup's autobiographical work adds another dimension to our understanding of the differences between the North and the South that contributed to the outbreak of the Civil War. Remember that Northup was a slave for twelve years. Had he written about every experience that he had as a slave, this book would be thousands of pages long. Therefore, he included only those things that were central to his story and that he believed to be significant in terms of conveying an understanding of slavery and of life in the North. Directions: Below are questions that can guide your reading and understanding of 12 Years a Slave by Solomon Northup. ​ ​ These questions are not comprehensive, but should rather be used to illuminate on-going themes throughout the book. Within each answer, be sure to provide an adequate description, which should include quotes, analysis, textual evidence, etc. Be sure that your answers are thoughtful, use elaboration and evidence, and prove that you carefully analyzed the text. You can either answer these questions below or on a separate sheet of paper. Please answer in complete sentences. It is suggested that you preview the questions prior to reading and write down page numbers as reference as you answer each question. This portion of the assignment is due on the first ​ day of school.
