Reviews of current scholarly books are included in every number, often presented as review essays, and a forum offers readers the opportunity to respond to issues raised in articles and book reviews. The journal also provides information on African publishing as well as announcements of importance to Africanists, and frequently prints notes and queries of literary interest.

27. African Literature - Papers And Essays On... african literature essays papers on wokrs like Achebe s Things Fall Apart, stories by Gordimer and more - african literature essays. http://www.africanlit.com/

Essays on African Literature This site features dozens of essays critically analyzing works of African literature. When Chinuah Achebe wrote "Things Fall Apart" in 1958, few could have guessed that it would have such a tremendous impact and draw so much attention to its sociopolitical themes that the novel would be studied by students as far away as the United States in an era as distant as the 21st century. Yet the works of Achebe and many other African authors of the last one hundred or so years have not only made their way into mainstream literature...but into the forums of higher education as well. AfricanLit.Com serves not only as a tribute to these great authors from the "dark continent" but also as a database for essays, reports, and papers critically analyzing some of the genre's most commonly read works! If you're a student struggling to understand a piece of African literature assigned to you, use the " paper list " button on your left to browse a database of essays designed to help you understand... or write a term paper about the story you're reading! And if you can't find anything on the particular piece of African fiction YOU'RE writing about, just use the "

Contemporary Perspectives on J.M. Coetzee and Post-Apartheid South African Literature: An International Conference Home Programme Plenaries Tickets ... Contact Now extended to two days due to wide international response We are delighted to announce our plenary speakers: South Africa and its writers, past and present, have long established themselves in a compelling and forceful role in the wider scheme of world literature. However, after years of censorship and silencing during apartheid, the collective South African voice is now heard more widely and clearly: inescapable, inevitable and unavoidable. Previous authors who were silenced under apartheid can now be heard, novels banned for decades have been reissued and new fiction is being published to international acclaim. J.M. Coetzee has been one of South Africa's significant authors, both during and after apartheid. The first writer to have won the prestigious Booker Prize twice, he has recently been awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Coetzee's socially aware fiction has arguably been the voice most often heard from South African literature during apartheid in the West, both as a novelist and as an academic figure. Ten years after the end of apartheid, it is essential to enter into a dialogue with these voices that we are only just being permitted to hear unchecked.

UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA - AFRICAN STUDIES CENTER AFRLITAfrican Literature Forum ANNOUNCEMENT: African Literature Forum AFRLIT The African Literature Forum AFRLIT has been created for the discussion of topics and issues in the field of literature created by writers of the African Continent. This moderated forum promotes study and critical exchanges of ideas among scholars, educators, students, and others with a strong interest in the literature of the African Continent. The forum seeks to encourage both scholarly pursuits and to deepen cultural and social knowledge and understanding through literature. While this forum focuses primarily on the genre normally included within belles lettres (i.e., prose fiction, poetry, and drama), other topics that enhance understanding of those genre (e.g., film, myths, legends, folk tales, history, religion) may also be discussed if these topics bear directly and explicitly upon the study of literature.

Department of African Languages and Literature University of Wisconsin - Madison 1414 Van Hise Hall 1220 Linden Drive Madison WI 53706 fax: 608 265-4151 Department Email TENURE TRACK FACULTY POSITION: African Languages and Literature Mission Statement The mission of the Department of African Languages and Literature is to provide research and teaching in the areas of African languages, linguistics, literature, and oral traditions. This includes work on both graduate and undergraduate levels, and emphasizes the development and application of analytical and methodological tools that will enable students to work effectively and imaginatively in the four areas. The four areas are not considered mutually exclusive: the interconnections of these disciplines are studied closely and creatively. It is in the linkages among the disciplines that the Department makes its most significant and original contributions to knowledge. The Department's mission is also to produce graduate students who are capable of conducting original research and of providing teaching of quality in African languages, linguistics, oral traditions, and literature; students who will assure the future strength and health of these fields, who will carry our work to other institutions and countries. Through our teaching and our publications, we regularly inform and define, develop and give richness to our several disciplines, and so have a shaping influence on the field generally.
