Read more about African literature like "Cry the Beloved Country," and other works. Alphabetical Recent Up a category Cry the Beloved Country - Alan Paton Alan Paton began writing "Cry the Beloved Country" in a hotel room in Norway while he was undertaking a world-wide survey of correctional facilities. Once he'd started writing in a flood of emotion, it only took him three months to finish the book. The book was met with immediate success, and it has been popular in and out of the classroom ever since. Africa's 100 Best Books Alistair Boddy-Evans writes, "In response to the predominantly Anglo-Saxon nature of the Modern Library Board's list (only three authors were non-native English speakers), the African Top 100 has examples from several languages. However the majority are in English and many of the others are available in translation."

45. Voices Features biographical information of a number of African writers and a bibliography of african literature in English. http://web.uflib.ufl.edu/cm/africana/writers.htm

Library Catalog African Writers: Voices of Change These pages began in February 1996 as small project for a display in the lobby of Library West, UF's Humanities and Social Sciences library. Because the original file has become one of our more popular pages, we have expanded it significantly. I hope that this page sparks interest in African literature generally, and more specifically, in our sizable collection here at UF. Newly added in March and April of 1997 are short biographical pieces on Chinua Achebe, Ama Ata Aidoo, Ayi Kwei Armah, Buchi Emecheta, Bessie Head, Alex La Guma, Dambudzo Marechera, Ezekiel Mphahlele, Alan Paton, Okot P'Bitek, and Amos Tutuola. A substantial page for Francophone African poets in English translation is also now available, including brief biographical sketches as well as short excerpts from each author's work. We would be happy to review submissions from others in a similar vein. Thumbnail reviews of African novels would be especially welcomed, as would biographical sketches such as those found here already. We reserve for ourselves all editorial decisions for this site. Enjoy!

Eng 402a English 401: Modern African Literature Instructor: Carroll D. Yoder Office: CC-346; Telephone: 4162; Email: yoderc@emu.edu Weekly Schedule Objectives and Emphases This course is concerned with the literature of Africa south of the Sahara, not with exploring the sociology or history of Africa through its literature. One can study African literature for the same reason that one reads French, Russian or American writing; it reflects upon the human experience and provides careful readers insights into themselves and others. And one reads African literature not only because it is African, but also because it is good writing that provides all the pleasures of an imaginative art form (intellectual, sensuous and emotional) to be enjoyed fully and richly. At Eastern Mennonite University we have a Global Village curriculum which seeks to build bridges to peoples of other cultures. It is not enough to acquire information about others; we must also try to see the world through their eyes, listen to their music and stories, identify with their aspirations. I believe that the creative artist is particularly well equipped to enable us to transcend cultural barriers. By reading and discussing African literature, we gain a better understanding of ourselves and others. Texts Achebe, Chinua.

See also African literature Although Afrikaans had emerged as a distinctive language by the mid-18th cent., Dutch remained the official language in government and was compulsory in the schools. The pressure of nationalism led finally to the legal recognition of Afrikaans in 1925, and it replaced Dutch completely. There soon emerged several authors writing in Afrikaans. Notable among them was C. J. Langenhoven, who wrote novels and poems, translated the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam into Afrikaans, and wrote the words of the national anthem. His efforts led to the compilation of an Afrikaans dictionary.

Oral histories, myths, and proverbs additionally serve to remind whole communities of their ancestors' heroic deeds, their past, and the precedents for their customs and traditions. Essential to oral literature is a concern for presentation and oratory. Folktale tellers use call-response techniques. A griot (praise singer) will accompany a narrative with music. Some of the first African writings to gain attention in the West were the poignant slave narratives, such as

To Guide Entry Edgar Rice Burroughs, the creator of the Tarzan movies, had never set foot in Africa, yet his vision of a “savage Africa” stuck in the mind of millions of people. Africa, for the most part, is no longer perceived by students as being a country filled with wild and uncivilized people. Thanks to “20/20,” “60 Minutes,” and “The McLear Report,” The Tarzan and Jane syndrome has been shattered. Even National Geographic is making great strides in presenting African people in a more sophisticated light. The mass media are contemporary vehicles for expressing and propagating modern man’s understanding of culture and heritage. Because of the media, the world knows that McDonald’s and Coke have multi-million dollar franchises in Africa, and that Nigeria is the major source of crude for the Gulf Oil Company. Students are now willing to say that Africans are like us in that they too eat Big Mac’s and drink cokes. Students also know that oil companies are establishing friendly ties with Africa because Africa is abundant in a commodity that America desperately needs. Thanks to the media, students are knowledgeable of the exotic plant life and animal kingdom of Africa. With the improvement in photographic lenses and color precision, students can almost experience the sensation of actually being in the presence of African plants, animals and people.

T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z African Literatures page: The treatment of same-sex relationships in African literatures has been influenced by the traditional belief systems of various African societies, the imported views of Christianity and Islam, and the political and legal legacies of European colonialism. The elusive yet universal force of sexuality appears in virtually all genres of literature, with its definition and expression determined by the interwoven threads of cultural mores and traditions, historical experiences unique to each land and century, and the intent of individual authors. The massive twentieth-century explosion of literature by African authors using Western literary forms offers an opportunity for the exploration of sexual attitudes. Sponsor Message. Any attempt to understand the treatment of homosexuality as a theme in modern African plays, poetry, and novels must take into account traditional views on same-sex relationships, the influence of the imported religions of Christianity and Islam, and the political and legal conditions faced by the authors, especially the legacy of colonialism. Traditional Views of Same-Sex Relationships Contrary to the claims of some scholarship, homosexuality was not an unknown behavior over much of the African continent before colonialism. The range of local opinion on the topic, however, varied considerably. In his landmark 1988 work
