Doctor, militant, political essayist, teacher, journalist, diplomat, pan-Africanist: Frantz Fanon represented a new model of multi-engaged intellectual who sought to decolonize mid-twentieth-century thought, society and culture and move beyond the ideology of race. Born Black in colonial Martinique, he fought for France during the Second World War but later renounced his native land and aspired to be Algerian during the Algerian War of Independence. Foregrounding Fanon’s gift for self-invention and performance, James S. Williams charts the major turning points in the short, extraordinary life of this visionary figure, and reveals how Fanon’s pioneering work in psychiatry influenced his revolutionary writing and philosophy.
James S. Williams is Professor of Modern French Literature and Film at Royal Holloway, University of London. He is the author of Space and Being in Contemporary French Cinema (2013), Encounters with Godard: Ethics, Aesthetics, Politics (2016), and Ethics and Aesthetics in Contemporary African Cinema: The Politics of Beauty (2019), winner of the 2020 R. Gapper Prize.
