3. Based on this excerpt, why did Stowe write this novel?

Answer 1

Explanation:Q1 that depends on who you are asking many may feel disturbed by the atrocious mind of Simon and his thoughts about slavery while others may just think that Simon did nothing wrong and he even tries to 'make them feel comfortable' but that depends on who you ask

Q2 I believe when he is talking about "considerate and humane" he means that people have to respect someone elses' opinion as that's their own opinion and their own point of view, and as long as that "respect" for somebody's opinion continues existing slavery wasn't going to end

Q3 In my own point of view Stowe maybe was trying to form a sort of conscience in the people that why sometimes is important to evade the free speech if somebody's' life and health is on the line.
