书籍简介

该书开创性地诠释了神话曼德拉与历史人物曼德拉之间的关系，探讨了图像、故事和政治是如何结合在一起创造出我们今天所熟知的曼德拉这一标志性形象的。

博默探索了曼德拉漫长的人生轨迹，首先解释了南非反对种族隔离斗争的历史和政治背景，然后解释了种族隔离后艰难的和解时期，包括曼德拉的声誉自千禧年以来的转变和变化。

这本创新性的后殖民反思吸收了自2015年以来出现的关于曼德拉的更具批判性的修正主义文献，审视了对2013年曼德拉逝世以及2018年曼德拉诞辰100周年纪念活动的回应。

一版通过从曼德拉的影响、兴趣和主导思想的角度解读他的性格和成就，引领了曼德拉学术研究的潮流。第二版扩展了这一重点，对和解的意义和曼德拉的互惠伦理进行了意义深远的批判性研究。

A pathbreaking interpretate 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.

This innovative postcolonial reflection takes on board the more critical revisionist literature on Mandela that has emerged since 2015, looking at responses to his death in 2013, and the 2018 commemorations of the 100th anniversary of his birth.

The first edition set a trend in scholarship on Mandela by reading his character and achievements through the lens of his influences, interests, and leading currents. The second edition extends this focus with a far-reaching critical look at meanings of reconciliation and Mandela's ethic of reciprocity.
