dc.description.abstract | The portrayal of Mandela in Part of My Soul and in Long Walk to Freedom has
been explored through the analysis of literary strategies that the works employ.
The study begins with an introduction that encompasses the statement of the
problem, the hypotheses, objectives, justification, literature review, theoretical
framework, the methodology, the scope and limitation of the study. Thereafter
the study analyses the portrayal of Mandela in the two works. The study is
guided by the formalist approach that aids in the analysis of literary strategies
employed to reveal Mandela's character.
The discussion on literary strategies has focused on the main strategies that each
work employs in revealing his character and subsequently the image that
emerges. In revealing his character the two works complement each other in that
Part of My Soul give Mandela's image from a witness perspective whereas Long
Walk to Freedom give the self portrayal. | en |
