Cutter analyzes innovative works in the archive of antislavery illustrated books published from 1800 to 1852 alongside other depictions of enslavement. In so doing, she delineates a mode of radical empathy that attempts to destroy divisions between the enslaved individual and the free white subject and between the viewer and the viewed.
