This paper aims to read the function and significance of the body in Harriet Jacobs's autobiography, Incidents in the life of a Slave Girl. Jacobs's is different in several aspects from the typical narratives written by male ex-slaves. First, Jacobs does not show off her independent heroic deeds in the process of achieving her freedom as Frederick Douglass, one of the representative male slave writers, does. Instead she puts forward her family's and friends' active support for her success in fleeing from the harsh chattel slavery. Even though she reveals the cruel violence done to the blacks by evil slave masters and asserts the absolute necessity of abolition just like Douglass, she goes a step farther to reveal the constant sexual exploitation of female slaves by white male slaveowners, overseers and their sons. Thus she challenges the patriarchal system and ideology ingrained in society as well.
Jacobs declares through the mouth of the narrator, Linda Brent, that “Slavery is terrible for men; but it is far more terrible for women,” and this constitutes the particular subject of her narrative: “a woman's struggle against her oppression in slavery as a sexual object and as a mother.” The body of a slave is treated as a chattel, a property either to be sold or handed over; and especially a slavewoman is regarded as a tool which produces more slaves, the property of the owner, in addition to satisfying the white owner's sexual desire. Yet the slavewoman's body functions as a source of nurture to both her own children and the offsprings of her owner, a fact which sometimes possesses potentiality of subversion of the system. Jacobs controls her body in order to create a space for strategy which leads to freedom not only of herself but her children and brother as well. Her language and the frame of her narrative reflect the context in which her body is situated. Her narrative is a woman's writing, written in the “white milk” of nurture.
