CONCERNING VIOLENCE FANON FR. Księgarnia

Concerning Violence

Angered by the racism he witnessed on Martinique during the Second World War, Fanon here examines the roles of class, culture and violence, and expresses his profound alienation from the idea of colonialism and its bloodshed. More than four decades on, Fanon's work still inspires liberation movements today.

Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.

Frantz Fanon

Fanon did not live to see peace restored to an autonomous Algeria. In 1961 it was discovered that he was suffering from leukaemia; commitments to work forbade him leaving until it was too late to cure him. He was taken to Washington in late 1961 and died there in December of that year at the age of thirty-six. After his death a compilation of his theoretical writing was gathered together in a volume entitled The Revolutionary Thought of Frantz Fanon, and Black Skins, White Masks was published in England in 1967
