Download or read book Student Encyclopedia of African Literature written by Douglas Killam and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-12-30 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African literature is a vast subject of growing output and interest. Written especially for students, this book selectively surveys the topic in a clear and accessible way. Included are roughly 600 alphabetically arranged entries on writers, genres, and major works. Many entries cite works for further reading, and the volume closes with a selected, general bibliography. Africa is a land of contrasts and of diverse cultures and traditions. It is also a land of conflict and creativity. The literature of the continent draws upon a fascinating body of oral traditions and lore and also reflects the political turmoil of the modern world. With the increased interest in cultural diversity and the growing centrality of Africa in world politics, African literature is figuring more and more prominently in the curriculum. This book helps students learn about the African literary achievement. Written expressly for students, this book is far more accessible than other reference works on the subject. Included are nearly 600 alphabetically arranged entries on authors, such as Chinua Achebe, Athol Fugard, Buchi Emecheta, Nadine Gordimer, and Wole Soyinka; major works, such as Things Fall Apart and Petals of Blood; and individual genres, such as the novel, drama, and poetry. Many entries cite works for further reading, and the volume closes with a selected, general bibliography.

Book excerpt: "Born Akinwande Oluwole Soyinka in Ake, Abeokuta, Western Nigeria in 1934, Wole Soyinka is Africa's most distinguished playwright and dramatist." "Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1986, the first African so honored, Soyinka's career as a creative artist began at age 23, when his first plays were performed in London and Ibadan." "Since then, Soyinka has produced a prolific body of work - over two dozen plays, novels, autobiographies, hundreds of essays, poetry collections, two films and an album of satiric songs." "Teacher, playwright, director, actor, icon, rebel, activist, family man and international statesman - this photo biography captures the multi-faceted personality of one of the most engaging individuals of our time."--BOOK JACKET.
