Reviews
"I have collaborated with Dike Okoro on several projects dealing with Zulu literature in particular, and African literature in general. He is one of the most promising members of the new generation of literary critics and writers to come out of African in recent years." Lupenga Mphanda, PhD, Professor of African Languages/Literature, The Ohio State University/USA "Dike Okoro has already established himself as an urgent and necessary literary critic and scholar of African and African Diaspora Literature. As such, Mazisi Kunene: Literature, Activism, and African Worldview will be an important contribution to the growing need for books on African poets in Africa and around the world." Patricia Jabbeh Wesley, Author, Praise Song for My Children: New & Selected Poems "Dr. Dike Okoro has proven himself as one of the premier scholars of African poetry. This book is timely and would constitute an important reference for future research on Mazisi Kunene and other South African poets." Chielozona Eze, PhD, Bernard J. Brommel Distinguished Research Professor, NEIU & Extraordinary Professor of English at Stellenbosch University, South Africa

Synopsis
This book examines the life and work of Mazisi Kunene, the only recognized poet laureate of Africa, a Nobel Prize nominee, and a key symbol of African cultural independence., This book examines the life and work of Mazisi Kunene, the only recognized poet laureate of Africa, a Nobel Prize nominee, and a key symbol of African cultural independence. Kunene is widely recognized for his epic poems that assert cultural identity and condemn the disruption of the growth and development of African culture through colonialism/postcolonialism. This book explores how 'oraliterature' and cultural traditions informed Kunene's poetry, how Kunene's poetry highlights African women and mothers, and how activism, mythology and transnational identities are depicted in his verse to promote cultural and generational continuities from Africa to the Diasporic Africans. Drawing on a range of interviews and comparative studies, the book situates Kunene's work in a wider conversation about South African social struggles. This book is an important contribution to our understanding of one of the giants of African literary history. As such, it will be of interest to researchers across African literary and postcolonial studies.

    Leaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration

    The seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!

    My statue was exactly as described, it was un-opened and in perfect condition! Totally wirth the price. Getting it shipped took a little long but the seller was very responsive when I messaged and sent me the tracking as soon as it was available. Plus they did a good job packaging it well enough that despite being banged up on the outside my item was completely undamaged.
