In the extreme context of the American slavocracy, how do we
account for the robust subjectivity and agency of Frederick
Douglass? 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.
