Always be good, so people will love you. Always work hard and do your best.? These were the words of Black Beauty?s mother to her son when the two horses lived with Farmer Grey. But when Black Beauty got older, this was sometimes very difficult for him. Not everybody was as kind as Farmer Grey.
" Belleza Negra " es el clásico más conocido universalmente de la literatura que aboga por los derechos de los animales. Publicado en 1877, se convirtió en un bestseller que cruzó el Atlántico, donde apareció, unos años más tarde, con el subtítulo de " 'La cabaña del tío Tom' de los caballos " . Vendido de un amo a otro, Belleza Negra narra su historia desde su posición como testigo directo de las crueldades padecidas por él y sus congéneres, con el fin de denunciar muchas de las lacras sociales, políticas y económicas de la Inglaterra de finales del XIX. De ahí que, esta animalografía equina se convierta en alegoría de la subyugación de diversos sectores sin voz de la sociedad victoriana, en especial, las clases trabajadoras, y exija una toma de conciencia a los lectores.
When Black Beauty is trained to carry a rider on his back, or to pull a carriage behind him, he finds it hard at first. But he is lucky - his first home is a good one, where his owners are kind people, who would never be cruel to a horse. But in the nineteenth century many people were cruel to their horses, whipping them and beating them, and using them like machines until they dropped dead. Black Beauty soon finds this out, and as he describes his life, he has many terrible stories to tell.
