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.
Frantz Fanon was born in Martinique in 1925. During World War II Fanon enlisted in the French army and was initially sent with allied forces to Casablanca, Morocco, yet was transferred to France where he fought and was wounded in the battle at Colmar, in northern France. After the war Fanon studied medicine in France, where he specialized in psychiatry. It was while studying in...
Frantz Fanon was born in Martinique in 1925. During World War II Fanon enlisted in the French army and was initially sent with allied forces to Casablanca, Morocco, yet was transferred to France where he fought and was wounded in the battle at Colmar, in northern France. After the war Fanon studied medicine in France, where he specialized in psychiatry. It was while studying in France that Fanon wrote his first book, entitled Black Skin, White Masks (1952), a study of the black subjugation in the western white world.
Sent to a hospital in Algeria, he found his sympathies turning toward the Algerian Nationalist Movement, which he later joined. He is considered this century’s most important theorist of the African struggle for independence. The Wretched of the Earth, his most internationally acclaimed book, has been translated into over twenty-five languages, with more than one million copies in print in English alone. Other works by Frantz Fanon available from Grove Press are Black Skin, White Masks; Toward the African Revolution; and A Dying Colonialism.
《大地上的受苦者》(Les Damnés de la terre)是法籍安提列斯裔后殖民主义理论家弗朗兹·法农(Frantz Fanon)在1960年得知自己罹患髓细胞性白血病将不久于人世时,用几个月时间口述而成。在死神的催逼下,法农迫切地渴望将自己对阿尔及利亚和黑非洲民族解放运动的观察、期待...

Fanon的書,都給滿分。薩特的序言是典型的言不及義, albert memmi和後來許多做殖民理論的都已經分析過了。但是Fanon 裡頭討論暴力的種種觀點,和法國左派革命家sorel的理論極近。只不過一個用來反殖,一個用來指導列寧搞左派革命而已。

就读了霍米巴巴的导.....实话说,巴巴的语言支离破碎地不是很看得明白,但是他不仅翼赞了ngo在国际财富再分配上的实务作用(与空谈文化战争身份政治的左派形成鲜明对比),而且将法农的暴力论"矫正”为技术官僚式的(不能如安第列斯厌女小男人法农一样把brotherhood暴力视为目的和手段都会在其中生成的中介)政治人-精神病医师的主观-客观骑墙,并指责法农本人破坏了这一平衡,没有病理地分析被殖民精神情感... 就读了霍米巴巴的导.....实话说,巴巴的语言支离破碎地不是很看得明白,但是他不仅翼赞了ngo在国际财富再分配上的实务作用(与空谈文化战争身份政治的左派形成鲜明对比),而且将法农的暴力论"矫正”为技术官僚式的(不能如安第列斯厌女小男人法农一样把brotherhood暴力视为目的和手段都会在其中生成的中介)政治人-精神病医师的主观-客观骑墙,并指责法农本人破坏了这一平衡,没有病理地分析被殖民精神情感的模式,反而使自己的书变 成了解殖圣经,我们也就明白,framing Fanon是千千万万要把暴力论给抛出热气球之后才能够着手的..
