About This Book
European and African works have found it difficult to move past the image of Africa as a place of exotica and relentless brutality.This book explores the status and critical relationship between politics, culture, literary creativity, criticism, education and publishing in the context of promoting Africa's indigenous knowledge, and seeks to recover some of the sites where Africans continue to elaborate conflicting politics of self-affirmations. Itboth acknowledges and steps outside the protocols of analysis informed by nationalism, differentiating theforms that postcolonial theories have taken, and arguing for a selective appropriation of theory that emerges from Africa's lived experiences.
