The contributors examine a multiplicity of minority discourses expressed in African literature, including those who are culturally, socially, politically, religiously, economically, and sexually marginalized in literary and artistic creations. Chapters and sections of the book are structured to identify major areas of minority articulation of their condition and strategies deployed against the repression, persecution, oppression, suppression, domination, and tyranny of the majority or dominant group. Bringing together diverse perspectives to give a holistic representation of the African reality, this handbook is an important read for scholars and students of comparative and postcolonial literature and African studies."--Provided by publisher.African literatureAfrican literatureHistory and criticismMinorities in literatureAfrican literature.African literatureHistory and criticism.Minorities in literature.809.896Ojaide Tanure1948-,Ashuntantang JoyceOCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910799940503321Routledge handbook of minority discourses in African literature3873651UNINA
