Sir Garfield Todd's (1908-2002) lifelong support of African rights earned him initial political success, subsequent imprisonment, and, finally, rightful recognition. Often labeled a liberal in the British political tradition, a closer study of Todd's rhetoric demonstrates that his politics flow directly from his religious heritage-and not from political liberalism.Studies in rhetoric and religion ;2.RhetoricPolitical aspectsZimbabweHistory20th centuryChristianity and politicsZimbabweHistory20th centuryDemocracyZimbabweHistory20th centurySpeeches, addresses, etcZimbabwePolitics and government1890-1965ZimbabwePolitics and government1965-1979RhetoricPolitical aspectsHistoryChristianity and politicsHistoryDemocracyHistorySpeeches, addresses, etc.968.9/03092Casey Michael W1178130Todd Garfield1908-2002.1808429MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910970499403321The rhetoric of Sir Garfield Todd4358660UNINA
