Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring
A pathbreaking analysis of the relationship between Mandela the myth, and Mandela the historical figure, looking at the way images, stories, and politics have been combined to create the iconic image of Mandela that we know today.
Boehmer explores the long trajectory of Mandela’s life, explaining first the historical and political context of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa, and then the post-apartheid period of difficult reconciliation, including the shifts and changes in Mandela’s reputation since the millennium.
