內容簡介
A distinguished psychiatrist from Martinique who took part in the Algerian Nationalist Movement, Frantz Fanon was one of the most important theorists of revolutionary struggle, colonialism, and racial difference in history. Fanon's masterwork is a classic alongside Edward Said's Orientalism or The Autobiography of Malcolm X, and it is now available in a new translation that updates its language for a new generation of readers. The Wretched of the Earth is a brilliant analysis of the psychology of the colonized and their path to liberation. Bearing singular insight into the rage and frustration of colonized peoples, and the role of violence in effecting historical change, the book incisively attacks the twin perils of post independence colonial politics: the disenfranchisement of the masses by the elites on the one hand, and intertribal and interfaith animosities on the other. Fanon's analysis, a veritable handbook of social reorganization for leaders of emerging nations, has been reflected all too clearly in the corruption and violence that has plagued present-day Africa. The Wretched of the Earth has had a major impact on civil rights, anticolonialism, and black consciousness movements around the world, and this bold new translation by Richard Philcox reaffirms it as a landmark.
作者簡介
弗朗茲·法農(1925－1961)是精神病醫師和作家，他曾認為暴力革命是第三世界結束殖民壓迫和文化創傷的惟一途徑。其著作《黑皮膚，白面具》、《全世界受苦的人》、《為了非洲革命》、《阿爾及利亞革命的第五年》等，被認為是有關二十世紀五六十年代黑人解放鬥爭的經典著述，並對美國和歐洲的激進運動產生深刻影響。該書從法國有色人的精神迷惘和由此導致的精神痛苦入手，披露長期的殖民統治在他們心理上留下的傷痛。但事實上，這種文化心理傷痛並非只留存在法國有色人心中，這種傷痛是後殖民時代普遍的世界現象。“一部複雜而有原創力的著作，在今日有關種族主義本質的所有討論中，仍然是至為關鍵的文本。
