In an environment of extremity, where most contemporary psychological theory suggests the human spirit would be vanquished, how did Frederick Douglass emerge to become one of the most prolific thinkers of the 19th century? To address this question, this book engages in a psychoanalytic examination of all four of Frederick Douglass’ autobiographies. Danjuma Gibson examines when, how, and why Douglass tells his story in the manner he does, how his story shifts and takes shape with each successive autobiography, and the resulting psychodynamic, pastoral, and practical theological implications.Black Religion/Womanist Thought/Social Justice,2945-6983Black theologyAfrican AmericansCultureAfricaPolitics and governmentCounselingPsychology and religionBlack TheologyAfrican American CultureAfrican PoliticsCounseling PsychologyPsychology of Religion and SpiritualityBlack theology.African Americans.Culture.AfricaPolitics and government.Counseling.Psychology and religion.Black Theology.African American Culture.African Politics.Counseling Psychology.Psychology of Religion and Spirituality.973.8092Gibson Danjuma Gauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut859251BOOK9910300628903321Frederick Douglass, a Psychobiography1917761UNINA
