AFRICAN LITERATURE # 9
Using the works
of Morrison, Head, Ba, Vera, Magona, Rotimi, Okri, D�Aguiar, Onwueme,
Mabanckou, Biyaoula and the Insigamigani texts of Rwanda, the heroism and
wisdom of African proverbs as a metagenre are being rediscovered in the
new writings of African scholars. A multidimensional notion of existence
is replacing linearity time that seems very much an arbitrary creation
of Western materialist consciousness. Order Now

THE
JOURNAL OF NEW POETRY NO. 6
This
volume takes historical, sociological, literary, aesthetic perspectives
on the evolution, practice and emergence of African poetry and music as
mutually reliant and dependent creative media of art in society. It
proposes that music should weave naturally, and most perceptibly, with
the religious functions of art in a social communion that holds greater
purpose for individual and communal well being. The focus on poetry and
music recognises the significance of both artistic forms to contemporary
African experience.Order Now
