Emerging Perspectives on Chinua Achebe, Band 2Ernest Emenyo̲nu, Iniobong I. Uko Africa World Press, 2004 - 459 Seiten Chinua Achebe's influence on contemporary African literature is as much in evidence in his art of the novel as his theory of African literature and literary criticism. ISINKA (Igbo term for artistic purpose') establishes Achebe's legacy as a literary theorist and critic. In these essays scholars from around the globe assess and establish how much Achebe's extra-fictional ideas about African literature and literature in general are justified in his own creative works.' |
