Alt 1-4: African Literature Today: A Journal of Explanatory Criticism
ISBN: 9780852555064 / Angielski / Miękka / 1968 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The intention of the African Literature Today series (ALT) was, and still is, to encourage African writing in any language, whether of fiction, poetry or plays, and also to encourage its criticism. The critic's role, according to Eldred Durosimi Jones in his 1968 Introduction to ALT 1, is to make the work accessible to a wider readership and to help establish literary standards for African literature: "The more permissive the publisher's policy is, the more necessary becomes the function of the critic." This book combines the first 4 volumes in the series, which had been published as single...

First published in 1975, this volume of the series continues in more depth the debate on the role of critics and the purpose of criticism. As Eldred Jones reminds the reader in his Editorial: "African Literature Today has always aimed to be a forum for discussion ... Not surprisingly some opinions have provoked strong reactions.

The lively exchanges on who is best placed to judge African literature and how...

Alt 10 Retrospect & Prospect: African Literature Today: Tenth Anniversary Issue

In this 10th anniversary volume, first published in 1979, Eldred Jones outlines the trend over the years since independence of "a greater degree of alienation or dissidence of the principal writers from established regimes and a movement towards a closer identification with what they see as the needs of the ordinary people. Writers increasingly found themselves in difficulties with their respective governments, with ensuing consequences of loss of favour, of exile - enforced or voluntary - or worse still of detention or imprisonment in their own countries." This issue makes a reassessment of...

Alt 13 Recent Trends in the Novel: African Literature Today: A Review
ISBN: 9780852555132 / Angielski / Miękka / 1983 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. First published in 1983, this volume looks at new developments in the African novel and also at those aspects of more established works that received less critical attention, such as writing from southern Africa, to which censorship and war restricted access. Eldred Jones in his Editorial also cites the "searing impact of the Nigerian Civil War, on the consciousness, not just on Nigerians, but on Africans as a whole." There are also contributions on Nigerian populist Kole Omotoso and Dambudzo Marechera's prize-winning House of Hunger. One of the most significant trends is the emergence of the...

This volume, first published in 1984, studies the attraction of Africa for non-African writers and the widespread and differing outside influences on African writers.

Other contributors compare and contrast the works of...

ISBN: 9781847011237 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In his Editorial to African Literature Today 12, first published in 1982, Eldred Jones laments the death of Camara Laye and gives tribute to him as one of the pioneers of African literature. The volume celebrates new writers whose works "have not received much critical attention either because they are relatively new, or because not being what might be described as mainstream they may unintentionally, perhaps, have been damned with faint praise or neglect." There are contributions on the works of Gabriel Okara, Robert Serumaga, Hamidou Kane and John Munonye, and emerging as significant new...
