Main Page Introduction The Course Authors ... Photo Wole Soyinka Introduction Biography Publications Death and the King's Horseman: Production Photos ... Study Questions Introduction Biography The first African to win the Nobel Prize in Literature (in 1986), Wole Soyinka has established himself as one of the most compelling literary forces on the continent. Born in Abeokuta, Nigeria, in 1934, he is often regarded as a universal man: poet, playwright, novelist, critic, lecturer, teacher, actor, translator, politician, and publisher. Soyinka's writing "blends African with European cultural traditions, the high seriousness of modernist elite literature, and the topicality of African popular theater." His early poetry, which can be found in one of the first issues of Black Orpheus and in A Shuttle in the Crypt (1971), resulted from his imprisonment during the Nigerian Civil War. His powerful prison diary, The Man Died (1972) was published after his release. Soyinka is actively committed to social justice and he has been an outspoken, daring public figure deeply engaged in the main political issues of his country and Africa, and he has become a symbol for humane values throughout the continent. Soyinka's hallmark is his dramatic work: "His plays are shaped by myth and imagery and the narratives move back and forth in time. The events are powerful, the language filled with puns and witty wordplay, references, and allusions. Soyinka has an excellent sense of dramatic rhythm and visual theater." See

Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Wole Soyinka (1934-) - in full Akinwande Oluwole Soyinka Nigerian playwright, poet, novelist, and critic, first black African who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1986. Soyinka has been imprisoned several times for his criticism of the government. From the 1970s he has lived long periods in exile. Soyinka's plays range from comedy to tragedy, and from political satire to the theatre of the absurd. He has combined influences from Western traditions with African myth, legends and folklore, and such techniques as singing and drumming. "Soyinka probably would like to be recognized most especially as a dramatist and man of the theatre. He implied that much at the opening of his Nobel Prize acceptance speech (dedicated to Nelson Mandela) as he related back to a moment in the past, in his theatrical beginnings, to inform the crucial political situations of the present world order. This recognition would seem to be justified, considering his gamut of plays, but more especially so because in his drama can be located elements of his equally important literary forms..." ( Femi Euba in Postcolonial African Writers , ed. by Pushpa Naidu Parekh and Siga Fatima Jagne, 1998)

The first play reviewed is "The Lion and the Jewel" where the author addresses issues of love in terms of cultural differences. The writer then looks at some of the themes in his play "The Trials of Brother Jero" where the issue portrayed is a clash between traditional religion and Christianity. Other issues seen in the review are feminism, class and religion. From the Paper: "The way the women in this society are viewed and treated contrasts sharply with the way we see women in our society today. A feminist would view this play as regressive, though it is in fact depicting a way of life that has sustained this particular community for some time. Lakunle seems more attuned to what the west would view as the proper way to treat women, but the women themselves acquiesce in such treatment and in their role in this society."
