African Literature as Political Philosophy looks in particular at Achebe's Anthills of the Savannah and Petals of Blood by Ngugi wa Thiong'o, but situates these within the broader context of developments in African literature over the past half-century, discussing writers from Ayi Kwei Armah to Wole Soyinka. M.S.C. Okolo provides a thorough analysis of the authors' differing approaches and how these emerge from the literature. She shows the roots of Achebe's reformism and Ngugi's insistence on revolution and how these positions take shape in their work. Okolo argues that these authors have bee

    Ngugi wa Thiong?o IBM zum literarischen Werk des Klassikers der afrikanischen Literatur erscheint nun die erste deutschsprachige Monografie.

    Kenyan dramatist and novelist Ngugi wa Thiong'o is a hugely influential African writer respected not only for his creative work but also for his criticism of wider cultural issues - issues such as nation and narration, power and performance, language and identity, empire and postcoloniality. Simon Gikandi's study, first published in 2000, offers a comprehensive analysis of all Ngugi's published work and explores the development of the major novels and plays against a background of colonialism and decolonisation in Kenya. Gikandi places the works in a context that examines the way they engage with the changing history of Africa. Tracing Ngugi's career from the 1960s through to his role in shaping a radical culture in East Africa in the 1970s and his imprisonment and exile in the 1980s, this book provides fresh insight into the author's life and the historic events that produced his work Introduction: reading texts and contexts -- Narrative and nationalist desire: early short stories and The river between -- Educating colonial subjects: the "emergency stories" and Weep not, child -- Representing decolonization: A grain of wheat -- The poetics of cultural production: the later short stories and Petals of blood -- Performance and power: the plays -- The prisonhouse of culture: Detained and Devil on the cross -- The work of art in exile: Matigari -- Writing freedom: essays and criticism -- Conclusion

    African Literature as Political Philosophy looks in particular at Achebe's Anthills of the Savannah and Petals of Blood by Ngugi wa Thiong'o, but situates these within the broader context of developments in African literature over the past half-century, discussing writers from Ayi Kwei Armah to Wole Soyinka. M.S.C. Okolo provides a thorough analysis of the authors' differing approaches and how these emerge from the literature. She shows the roots of Achebe's reformism and Ngugi's insistence on revolution and how these positions take shape in their work. Okolo argues that these authors have bee

"This collection on Ngũgĩ's work and the reach of his thinking chiefly within the US and areas of its closest hegemony joins artists, activists, critics and scholars (often the same) from the Caribbean through North America to Hawai'i. All have been deeply touched by Ngũgĩ's artistic, critical and political work, and testify to his being perhaps the "symbol" of radical political and artistic exchanges between Africa and America (and the West generally) and how that readily expands to global transcultural dialogue (as his own chapter attests). The chapters, together and singularly, track his hopeful but not naïve path from decolonizing the mind (defusing the "cultural bomb" that is colonizing's obliteration of names, languages, cultures and homeland bonds) to balancing cultures as equal knots in the mesh of an evenly-woven global net, then to finding and making ties and exchanges in a global dialogue. For some this means seeing how Ngũgĩ's novels sap and alter "traditional" (Western) ideas and aims of the novel in particular and fictive imagination in general (what in the West takes such forms as "literature," "art," "aesthetics"...). Most explore his impact (often in their own artistic, political and scholarly work) on ideas and practices of language and culture; of decolonization of minds and bodies and personal, social and ecological well-being; of education and new non-hierarchical and transcultural pedagogies; of savagely centered social and political control (at their extreme, US and other carceral regimes) and decolonized freedoms for individuals and populations. The start lies in refusing murderous economies of slave trade, colonization and neoliberal exploitation and contest. The ongoing lies in creative ecologies of exchange, circulation and the knotted equalities, compassion and knowings of the infinite variety of the world's cultures. For what threads all these chapters is that Ngũgĩ's exile in the US has led him to develop one of the most potent conceptions of how a truly global reality of transcultural exchange among equal communities (what he now calls globalectics) may actively come to exist"--
