| Summary | "De strijd tusschen Noord en Zuid" by Jules Verne is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The book explores the turbulent times of the American Civil War, focusing on the conflicting ideologies surrounding slavery and the sectional divide between Northern and Southern states. Central to the story are characters such as James Burbank, a Northern supporter living in Florida, and Texar, a staunch Southern advocate for slavery, whose fates intertwine as the war advances. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to the stoomboot "Shannon," setting the stage for conflict through its passengers, who are sharply divided into two opposing groups representing the North and the South. The narrative details the boat's journey down the St. John River in Florida, where tensions are palpable as the characters engage in heated discussions about the ongoing war. Key characters, such as Texar and James Burbank, emerge as symbols of their respective sides, setting the groundwork for the imminent challenges they will face amid the backdrop of war. The opening effectively establishes the environment of looming danger and moral conflict, hinting at the dramatic events to follow. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
