Nelson Mandela recoge en esta magistral antología los cuentos más bellos y antiguos de África. Es una colección que ofrece un ramillete de entrañables relatos, pequeñas muestras de la valerosa esencia de África, que en muchos casos son también universales por el retrato que hacen de la humanidad, de los animales y de los seres fantásticos.«Está la liebre», observa Mandela en el prólogo, «una pilluela muy ingeniosa; la hiena, que es la perdedora de todas las historias; el león, el jefe de los animales y quien les da regalos; la serpiente, que inspira miedo y a la vez es el símbolo del poder sanador; hay también hechizos que pueden acarrear la desgracia o conceder la libertad...». Todos los cuentos, además, están maravillosamente ilustrados en color por 16 artistas africanos.

In the Robben Island prison register, Nelson Mandela was famously recorded as prisoner number 466/64. Number 468/64 was Ahmed Kathrada. Sentenced to life imprisonment in 1964 in the infamous Rivonia Trial, Ahmed Kathrada spent twenty-six continuous years in jail for his political beliefs. During his incarceration, he secretly jotted down quotations, proverbs, aphorisms, poetry and drama extracts, and passages from books, magazines and newspapers. On Robben Island, these quotations were like familiar friends. They helped steel the soul within the stolen body -- the authorities might control that body but they could not lock up the mind.

From his birth in a village on the banks of the Mbashe River in the Transkei to his politicisation and development as a freedom fighter, this first volume of Nelson Mandela's classic autobiography charts the early years of his life, which culminated in his prison sentence in 1962. Emotive, compelling and uplifting, Long Walk to Freedom: Volume 1 tells the beginnings of the story of an epic life, a story of hardship, resilience and ultimate triumph conveyed with the clarity and eloquence of the outstanding moral and political leader of the twentieth century.

The Triumph of Hope is part 2 of this two-volume edition of the best-selling autobiography by one of the greatest statesmen of the twentieth century

The second volume of Nelson Mandela’s memoirs, left unfinished at his death, is now completed and expanded with notes and speeches from his presidency, serving as a poignant sequel to his acclaimed first volume. Mandela reflects on his journey, stating, “I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.” In 1994, he became South Africa's first democratic president, and by 1999, he had stepped down, having led an extraordinary transformation from a nation divided by colonialism and apartheid to one where all citizens, regardless of race, were equal under the law. This narrative draws from Mandela’s unfinished draft and detailed notes taken during his presidency, as well as previously unseen archival material. The acclaimed South African author Mandla Langa has meticulously completed this work, providing a vivid and inspirational account of Mandela’s leadership during a pivotal time in history. The memoir captures the challenges he faced and the realization of his vision for a liberated South Africa, emphasizing the responsibilities that come with freedom and the ongoing journey toward equality and justice.

How should an emerging democracy cope with the legacy of an ousted repressive regime? How can a new society redress past abuses without creating new injustices, while peacefully integrating the victims and the perpetrators?By bringing together the collective experience of numerous countries and cultures over the past fifty years, this three-volume compilation of readings provides an invaluable resource for government officials, private organizations, scholars, and others involved in the transitions of today and tomorrow.

Tuto strhující autobiografii prvního černošského prezidenta Jihoafrické republiky, bojovníka proti rasové segregaci a držitele Nobelovy ceny míru Nelsona Mandely, zachycující období od jeho narození v roce 1918 až po první všerasové volby roku 1994, lze současně číst jako poutavé dějiny jihoafrického osvobozeneckého hnutí i celé moderní Jižní Afriky. Přestože kvůli svým názorům strávil celkem dvacet sedm let ve vězení a boji za svobodu byl nucen obětovat veškerý osobní život, Mandela vůči svým bílým utiskovatelům nezahořkl, nikdy neopustil myšlenku mezirasového smíru a zasadil se o pokojný přechod k vládě černošské většiny. Jeho vyprávění se čte jako detektivní román, vyznačuje se velkou otevřeností, nepostrádá smysl pro humor, paradox a ironii.
