Anotace knihy

This biography of Paul Robeson (1898-1976) will provide readers with a detailed account of the Robeson's life while deploying his biography to interpret and represent key political developments of the 20th century. More to the point, the book will use Robeson's life as a prism through which to view the struggle against racism and colonialism, the battle for socialism and the transcendent impact of art and performance, particularly on stage and screen. The primary objective of the book will be to allow readers unfamiliar with his life and work to comprehend why Robeson is considered not only one of the most influential, charismatic and talented African Americans of the previous century-"the tallest tree in our forest", the phrase that has justly attached itself to him-but, as well, a similarly important figure in London and abroad generally. A critical examination of his life provides an opportunity for readers to comprehend the triumphs and tragedies and the victories and defeats of the Revolutionary Left of which he was not just a part, but, perhaps, its most resonant symbol.
