Osofisan is one of the most respected and prolific African writers.

Download or read book Playwriting and Directing in Nigeria written by Ola Rotimi and published by Fourth Dimention Publishing Company Limited. This book was released on 2002 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compendium of interviews with the late Ola Rotimi, who is perhaps Nigeria's foremost dramatist of the twentieth century. This edition brings together interviews which Rotimi has given over the past thirty years, some of which were published in occasional journals, and some of which have never previously been published. The interviewers are for the most part leading scholars in the fields of African literature and the dramatic arts: Bernth Lindfors, Onuora Ossie Enekwe, Margaret Floarin, Eldred Titus Green and Bassey Uwatt. The interviews present Rotimi's views on a range of subjects. As a whole, the collection reflects the development in his work and thought over time, and in light of the changing social and political and cultural context. Some subjects addressed are: African identity, academic influences and artistic ambition; the literary heritages of his tragedies, comedies and historical plays; socio-political context and socio-political drama; the craft and form of drama; Nigerian drama, language and authenticity; theatre and teaching in Africa and North America; and the dramatist's commitment to Africa and the Third World.

Download or read book God for a Secular Society written by Jürgen Moltmann and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 1999-03-05 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this masterful analysis of the religious and political dilemmas at the end of the modern age, world-renowned theologian J rgen Moltmann assays the vaulting dreams and colossal failures of our time. He asks how we came to this point, and he argues strenuously for Christian discipleship and public theology that take sides. In both critical and creative ways he advances the specific relevance of Christian messianic hope to today's thorniest political, economic, and ecological questions-including human rights, environmental rights, globalization, market capitalism, fundamentalisms, and Jewish-Christian relations-and the deeper values contested therein.In a world reeling between utopia and disaster, Moltmann here passionately and provacatively shows how Christian discipleship, through engagement and solidarity, can blaze a redemptive path.

Download or read book The Baby Mama Syndrome written by Robert Doyel and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-02 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women stalk each other and fight among themselves over a man. Relatives, friends, neighbors, even employers get caught up in the disputes. The man terrorizes the woman. Kids are abused, neglected, ignored, sick, or pregnant themselves. Many children are caught in the crossfire between female rivals, between the parents, or between a parent and a "fiance." Mothers don't finish high school, can't find jobs, suffer medically and psychologically, move in with their own parents or with fiance after fiance, and repeatedly call on taxpayers to support them. Baby daddies take no interest in their children, don't support them, expose them to new girlfriends, or are prevented by the baby mama from having a relationship with their children. The Baby Mama Syndrome reveals a world you didn't know existed, a world of unconventional relationships, unrestrained sexual activity, unwed pregnancies, and violence described graphically by the people involved. Be prepared to be shocked, be prepared to be amused, but most of all, be prepared to be concerned -- for the parents, the children, and the rest of us. JUDGE ROBERT DOYEL retired in 2010 after nearly 16 years as a Florida judge, mostly in family court.

Download or read book Writing African Women written by Stephanie Newell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does our understanding of Africa shift when we begin from the perspective of women? What can the African perspective offer theories of culture and of gender difference? This work, as unique and insightful today as when it was first published, brings together a wide variety of African academics and other researchers to explore the links between literature, popular culture and theories of gender. Beginning with a ground-breaking overview of African gender theory, the book goes on to analyse women's writing, uncovering the ways different writers have approached issues of female creativity and colonial history, as well as the ways in which they have subverted popular stereotypes around African women. The contributors also explore the related gender dynamics of mask performance and oral story-telling. This major analysis of gender in popular and postcolonial cultural production remains essential reading for students and academics in women's studies, cultural studies and literature.
