Sobre este título
This monumental biography by David Levering Lewis—eight years in the research and writing—treats the early and middle phases of a long and intense career: a crucial fifty-year period that demonstrates how W.E.B. Du Bois changed forever the way Americans think about themselves.
William Edward Burghardt Du Bois—the premier architect of the civil rights movement in America—was a towering and controversial personality, a fiercely proud individual blessed with the language of the poet and the impatience of the agitator. In the first of his superlative two-volume biography, renowned scholar David Levering Lewis chronicles the first five decades of Du Bois’s long and storied life, detailing in magisterial prose the momentous contributions to our national character that still echo today.
Resumo da Crítica
"When a nonfiction audiobook is described as “monumental,” it can be challenging for listeners. But Courtney B. Vance makes this biography of pioneering Black sociologist W.E.B. Du Bois highly accessible. The work is still long and detailed, but Vance’s pace and tone keep it from seeming tedious. He varies his voice to suit the material, especially in denoting irony or when delivering passages in which the author shows that Du Bois’s writings differ from the facts of his life. Vance tackles the foreign names, places, and concepts of Du Bois’s European period with facility. Du Bois was the intellectual force behind the founding of the NAACP and the modern Civil Rights movement. This audiobook does justice to the man, and Vance’s narration does justice to the book."
