Résumé,
This work entitled "Slavery and female identity in Ernest J. Gaine's The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman" examined hardship and ill treatments of black slaves in general and female slaves in particular. It analyses circumstances in which Jane Pittman and other black Americans lived after the declaration of freedom. It explores their sorrows and the lines of struggle they adopted. The topicality of Ernest J.Gaine's women and the complicated situation of life on the plantation are central to this study. This study is carried out based on the assumption that the major cause of that struggle in The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman is largely a reaction to the inhuman treatment meted on female on the plantations. They used strategies such as resistance, courage, education, religion, and abolition against the oppressors. Through a careful study of colour and sex prejudice, it is realized that the courage of women would help back Americans to overcome such disease of colour and sex prejudice. Most Black Americans, men and women, contributed in the course of the search of freedom in South America.
