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."--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aAfrican literature 606 $aAfrican literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMinorities in literature 615 0$aAfrican literature. 615 0$aAfrican literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMinorities in literature. 676 $a809.896 702 $aOjaide$b Tanure$f1948-, 702 $aAshuntantang$b Joyce 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910794060403321 996 $aRoutledge handbook of minority discourses in African literature$93686977 997 $aUNINA
