• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Marginalization is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon, intricately explored in this compelling study of Nadine Gordimer's seminal works, My Son's Story and The Pickup. This book delves deeply into the lives of characters affected by the apartheid regime and its aftermath, offering a nuanced analysis of their experiences. Through a meticulous examination of Gordimer's portrayal of these marginalized figures, the book reveals the profound impacts of systemic injustice and social exclusion across different periods in South African history. By highlighting the personal and collective struggles of those on the fringes of society, Art for the Oppressed not only illuminates the harsh realities of apartheid and post-apartheid South Africa but also provides a rich, empathetic perspective on their ongoing implications. This scholarly work invites readers to engage with the textured realities of South African history and the enduring legacy of marginalization.
