This dissertation analyses creative trends in Shona and Ndebele poetry published after the attainment of political independence in 1980. The research tries to establish the close link between poems in the two national languages and post-independence Zimbabwean history in order to examine the link between creative writing and nationalism, which is the context in which creativity takes place, an attempt is made to outline major trends in nationalist history vis-a-vis colonialism. Having set the background for analysis, the research focuses on texts that are published in the context of the apparent cultural renaissance that is ushered by the apparent victory of African nationalism over colonialism. The texts are analysed in the context of the dialectic of nationalism and colonialism. 2014-11-16T19:57:46Z 2014-11-16T19:57:46Z 1998 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9678 eng application/pdf African Languages and Literatures Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
