In 'Black Beauty,' Anna Sewell presents a poignant narrative that explores the life of a horse through the eyes of its protagonist, Black Beauty himself. Written in a distinctive first-person perspective, the novel unfolds a compelling tale of kindness and cruelty, set against the backdrop of Victorian England. Sewell employs a rich yet accessible literary style that draws readers into the emotional landscape of her equine hero, highlighting societal attitudes toward animals and advocating for more humane treatment. With its vivid descriptions and moral underpinnings, the book serves as a powerful critique of the exploitation and abuse prevalent in the 19th century, establishing itself as an early work in the animal advocacy movement. Anna Sewell's background as an avid horse lover and her personal experiences with animal suffering deeply influenced her writing. Born in 1820, Sewell faced numerous health challenges throughout her life, which limited her mobility and allowed her to reflect profoundly on her surroundings. Her passion for equine welfare, combined with her understanding of the human-animal relationship, culminated in this timeless classic, aimed at raising awareness and compassion towards the plight of horses and other animals. 'Black Beauty' is a must-read for those interested in animal rights, social justice, and the bond between humans and animals. Its universal themes continue to resonate today, making it an essential addition to both literary and ethical discussions. This meticulously crafted story not only entertains but also inspires empathy, compelling readers to reconsider their own beliefs about the treatment of animals in society.

Giới thiệu tác giả
Anna Sewell (1820–1878) was an English novelist, best known as the author of the classic 1877 novel 'Black Beauty'. Born in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, Sewell's upbringing was marred by health issues that frequently kept her away from school, necessitating a reliance on home tutoring. Her education was eclectic, in part supervised by her mother, Mary Sewell, who was a successful author of juvenile bestsellers, which influenced Anna's writing style and literary trajectory. Although 'Black Beauty' remains her only published work, it has secured her a lasting legacy in the world of literature. Written during the last years of her life when she was confined to her home due to ill health and was unable to stand or walk for any great length of time, Sewell composed 'Black Beauty' from a desire to induce kindness, sympathy, and an understanding treatment of horses. Uniquely, the book is narrated from the perspective of the titular horse, which at the time was an innovative technique and added to the novel's poignancy and appeal. The book is considered a pioneering work in the animal autobiography genre and coalesces Sewell's moral compass with her adept storytelling. Its vivid depiction of the mistreatment of horses and its insight into human ethics and the social issues of the era have made it a significant work of Victorian literature. 'Black Beauty' has seen countless adaptations and remains a seminal piece for both children and adults, advocating for the humane treatment of animals and influencing the work of animal welfare organisations. Sewell passed away only five months after her book was published, but her influence continues to resonate in both literary circles and the field of animal rights advocacy.
