The Life of Olaudah Equiano, or Gustavus Vassa, the African Dialogues Notes Links Teaching ... Citations "I believe there are a few events in my life which have not happened to many." With this understatement, Olaudah Equiano begins his interesting narrative. At the age of 11, Olaudah Equiano was abducted from his Ibo village in West Africa (presently in the area of Benin) and was sold into slavery. Approximately thirty years later, as an emancipated slave, he published his autobiography. At the time of his death in 1797, his memoir had gone through nine editions, including translations for European readers, and was a best seller of the day. It was a powerful influence for the abolition of slavery, especially in Great Britain. The boy Equiano was destined for a life of distinction in his society, when slavers kidnapped him and his younger sister. His early "slave homes" in Africa presented a "humane slavery", he was often treated as part of the family. Then his life really changed. He was taken to the coast for shipment to the Barbados. This was Equiano's first encounter with the white man. At first he feared being killed and eaten by them. Equiano describes in Chapter 2, the horrors of the voyage from Africa to the New World. He was sent to the Virginia Colony after not being sold in Barbados. In Virginia he was eventually purchased by Michael Pascal, an officer in the British Navy.

As a slave to a captain in the Royal Navy , the young Olaudah was introduced to a seafaring life which provided new opportunities. He was taken to England, taught to read and write, and eventually earned the price of his freedom. He went on to become a radical reformer and a best-selling author. Equiano travelled the world, and in 1773 he became the first black person to go to the Arctic when he joined Lord Mulgrave's famous expedition to find a passage to India across the North Pole One of the crew on that expedition was a young midshipman named Horatio Nelson, who would later become the great hero of the battle of the Nile and the battle of Trafalgar.

Olaudah Equiano's Writing Life Reassessed African Studies Review Dec 2003 by Earley, Samantha Manchester Abstract: This article is a literary analysis of the autobiography of Olaudah Equiano, or Gustavus Vassa, the African. It examines Equiano's use of multiple discursive and rhetorical strategies in order to move the self of his slave narrator from "marginal" to "central" status in the international debate over slavery. The essay focuses on Equiano's understanding of morality as a multicultural framework and his application of Christian rhetoric in explaining it. The main argument is that his search for religious understanding and his experiential knowledge allowed him to move between cultural "centers" and cultural "margins" while speaking with an authoritative voice against slavery.

Equiano, an Ibo from Niger (West Africa), was the first black in America to write an autobiography, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, or Gustavus Vassa, the African (1789). In the book - - an early example of the slave narrative genre Equiano gives an account of his native land and the horrors and cruelties of his captivity and enslavement in the West Indies.

Help Alistair's African History Blog From Alistair Boddy-Evans Your Guide to African History FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Was Olaudah Equiano Born in Africa or Not? A new biography on perhaps the most famous slave of all time, Olaudah Equiano, is causing controversy. According to a review published by the Mail and Guardian , the book Equiano the African: Biography of a Self-made Man by Vincent Carretta produces evidence that "Equiano may never have set foot in Africa, never mind boarded a slave ship" and that the "narrative of his early life may be pure fiction". Carretta apparently discovered a baptism record for Equiano dated 9 February 1759 stating he was born in Carolina. Carretta also "tracked down records proving that practically everything else [Equiano] told about his life was factually correct." A lecturer specialising in the literature of slavery and abolition at the Kingston University in Surrey, Brycchan Carey, has compiled a list of evidence for both sides of the debate of where Equiano was born. Carey says: "Just about the only thing we can say for certain is that, when he was younger, Equiano told people he was from Carolina, but when he was older, he told people he was from Africa."

Turkey: The threatening, exotic east Olaudah Equiano on Turkey Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, Written by Himself The Arms Dealers, Giulio Rosati Page contents: Introduction : Equiano in Turkey Excerpts Link to another class Equiano page Introduction: Equiano in Turkey Equiano visits Turkey several times after he buys his freedom in the West Indies and returns to England. Very few scholars have commented on Equiano's exposure to Turkish society. Most concentrate on his experience in the new World, with slavery, and with his negotiation of his Afro-British identity. However, the short Turkish passages extend some of the larger abolitionist and mercantilist arguments in his Narrative. In the passages on Turkey, he reveals several of his recurring interests, and he makes some observations that, like Lady Mary Wortley Montagu’s, might give pause to his white British readers. If Turks were infidels, then their ability to treat Africans like Equiano with kindness and respect certainly would contrast unfavorably with his treatment by Christians , to whose morals he appeals at other points in the book. He uses comparisons to supposedly barbaric Turks as a way to try to shame Christians to better behavior. At his encampment on the Musquito coast, a man named Hughes tries to kidnap him and Equiano protests, "I had been twice among the Turks, yet had never seen any such usage with them, and much less could I have expected any thing of this kind among the Christian" (
