African Literature: Beyond the Western Gaze

Nogwaja S. Zulu Thulani Mkhize

Abstrak

Adapted from the Introduction to a collection of commentaries on contemporary issues in African literature in South Africa, this article challenges a ‘Western gaze’: a gaze that configures African literature as a literature of texts or events expressed in the ex-colonial language of English, French, Spanish or Portuguese. Instead, the article pursues African literature as a literature written in African languages as well as other languages about African concerns and experiences.
