A groundbreaking exploration of the complex relationship between Mandela the myth and Mandela the historical figure delves into the intricate interplay of images, stories, and politics that have shaped the iconic image of Mandela that we know today. Author Boehmer takes readers on a comprehensive journey through Mandela's life, tracing the historical and political context of the struggle against apartheid in South Africa and the challenging post-apartheid period of reconciliation. This innovative postcolonial reflection incorporates critical perspectives from the recent revisionist literature on Mandela, examining responses to his death in 2013 and the commemorations of the 100th anniversary of his birth in 2018.
The first edition of this book set a precedent in scholarship on Mandela by examining his character and achievements through the lens of his influences, interests, and key ideas. In the second edition, the focus is extended even further with a comprehensive critical examination of the meanings of reconciliation and Mandela's ethic of reciprocity.
