| spelling | oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/9292 Land and identity in Zimbabwean fiction writings in English from 2000 to 2010 critical analysis Magosvongwe, Ruby Nyamende, Abner Makwavarara, Zifikile Includes bibliographical references. The major aim of this study is to analyse how Zimbabwean literary voices across the racial divide explore the land-identity conundrum that is hotly contested in the aftermath of Zimbabwe's post-2000 land occupations and other redistribution processes. It aims to interrogate how the selected fictional narratives depict both long-held views and emerging perspectives on Zimbabwe's land question. Further, the study examines the land realities that the writers depict with a view to promoting national dialogue. The latter aims to promote greater social cohesion, peace and oneness that are critical for more sustainable human development in post-independence Zimbabwe. 2014-11-07T09:11:18Z 2014-11-07T09:11:18Z 2014 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9292 eng application/pdf African Languages and Literatures Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
