Over the last decade ago, there have been a lot of discussions on languages and thoughts. In the wake of contemporary epoch, the basic purpose of this research is to explore enthusiasm, expressionism and coordination of meaning in Mandela’s eternal speech. The present paper is focused on artistic beauty of language, one of the most prominent speeches of Nelson Mandela through stylistic and critical analysis. Chiefly, it demonstrates the power of Mandela’s expressions, style and words’ choice in 11 February, 1990 speech. Special poetic techniques have made the speech of Mandela “an internationally accepted and everlasting accomplished phenomenon”. This paper provides a critical review of thoughts and illustrates thematic concerns of speech with the help of speech act theory. To acclimatize to the young and newly waved generation with peace and prosperity, Mandela’s speech is like a mirror. His influential strategy for taking up decisions and bearing the burden in struck and challenging environment have made him a greatest hero of 20th and 21st century. His prophetic vision and mission is very much being displayed in the speech. Although he spent 27 years in jail, there was no dearth in his zeal and zest. Due to sympathetically expressionistic and stylistic view, this speech is considered an icon of peace, prosperity, integrity and harmony at international level and in international relations. This research paper examines the different aspects of this speech correlated with his personal and political life and highlights the fantastic way of saying in front of foe and friends.
