Full Description
Doctor, militant, political essayist, teacher, journalist, diplomat, pan-Africanist: Frantz Fanon represented a new model of multi-engaged intellectual who sought to decolonize mid-twentieth-century thought, society and culture and move beyond the ideology of race. Born Black in colonial Martinique, he fought for France during the Second World War but later renounced his native land and aspired to be Algerian during the Algerian War of Independence. Foregrounding Fanon's gift for self-invention and performance, James S. Williams charts the major turning points in the short, extraordinary life of this visionary figure, and reveals how Fanon's pioneering work in psychiatry influenced his revolutionary writing and philosophy.
