Summary

This work covers all the key historical and cultural issues in the study of African literature, including criticism and theory, development as a field of scholarship, and studies both of established and lesser-known writers. While the greatest proportion of literary work in Africa has been a product of the twentieth century, the encyclopedia also covers the literature back to the early eras of story-telling and oral transmission, making this a unique and valuable resource for students in the social sciences as well as the humanities. Key features: The first in-depth A-Z encyclopedia on African Literature, edited by a leading specialist in the field Over 600 entries ranging from 200-2,000 words in length, written by an international team of leading scholars Answers the need for a comprehensive, authoritative reference for students of African Studies, Post-Colonial Studies, Comparative Literatures, and a wide range of other disciplines Bibliographies at the end ofeach entry, cross-references, index Selected entries: Cawal, Faarax Maxamed Jaamac; Central Africa, Literatures in English; Central Africa, Literatures in French; Chakaipa, Patrick; Chedid, Andree; Cheney-Coker, Syl; Chidzero, Bernard; Children's Literature; Chimenti, Elisa; Chimombo, Steve; Chinodya, Simmer; Chinweizu; Chipasula, Frank; Choto, R.; Choukri, Muhammad; Chraib, Driss; Christianity and Christian Missions; Cisse, Ahmed-Tidjani; Clark, J.
