The large and the small are linked by recurring themes, such as gender and sexuality, the nation-state and its collapse, AIDS, war, and suffering. The volume is comparative, bringing together literature in at least five languages and from at least ten national literatures. Such a large, comparative frame is implied by most discussion of African literature but is too seldom seen. At the same time, the collection also problematizes the comparison: the goal is to make clear what African literatures have in common but also where they diverge. What difference do distinct literary traditions, readerships, and publishing patterns make to literatures which share a common thematic and so many of the same questions and needs? By juxtaposing contemporary texts form several traditions, the intention of this collection is to bring out the themes that are currently dominant in African literatures generally. After a preface by Liz Gunner and a wide-ranging introduction by the editors, the collection presents keynote essays on new paradigms in African literature, before treating specific themes ? recent crime fiction, the Afrikaans and anglophone novel, feminist literature, ?migritude? ? and studies of recent works by individual authors such as André Brink, Henri Djombo, Pie Tshibanda, Bessora, Nadine Gordimer, and Paulina Chiziane, as well as the South African television series Yizo Yizo . 410 0$aCross/cultures ;$v104. 606 $aAfrican literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism$vCongresses 606 $aAfrican literature$vCongresses 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAfrican literature$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aAfrican literature 676 $a809.896 701 $aKortenaar$b Neil ten$0927789 701 $aMeyer$b Bernard de$f1960-$0992007 712 02$aUniversity of KwaZulu-Natal.$bCentre for African Literary Studies. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454848303321 996 $aThe changing face of African literature$92270371 997 $aUNINA
