Opis:
This paper presents an analysis of mythopoeic elements in three novels by Mia Couto. Starting from Mircea Eliade’s definition of myth, we look for elements of the Living Cosmos with its axis mundi, centre and periphery, chaos and harmony and quest in the novels. Such structure of the analysis allows us to consider the cultural colonization and decolonization of contemporary Mozambique. We conclude that the analysis of the mythopoetic schema in Mia Couto’s novels demonstrates a crisis of cultural harmony in the contemporary Mozambican state and nation. On the other hand, however, the mythopoetic reveals a horizon of cultural and traditional models of persistence that save not only from chaos but above all from the dehumanization of society.

Opis:
The dominant hierarchy upon which the order of existence is predetermined has placed the man at the centre of creation; which is also substantiated by cultural norms that prioritized generic divides. The principles of feminism have been created to alter patriarchal hegemony in order to reconstruct the distorted female self of an egalitarian society. However, in an attempt to reconstruct these misconceptions upheld by patriarchy, most feminist texts and criticisms have denied the woman the agency of freewill and independent choices, except the continuous emphasis on feminist objectification that patriarchy seem to propagate. It is against this backdrop, that this paper interrogates the subjugation of the woman by her fellow woman and to outline a model of feminist liberation. This is consequent upon the fact that even at the disruption of patriarchy, some feminist scholars have failed to account for the role of women in using men as puns in the subjugation of their fellow women in the African novel. Consequently, this paper replicates Chinweizu’s Masculinist Dissection of Matriarchy and uses feminist-deconstruction to interrogate Ama Ata Aidoo’s Changes and Nawal El Saadawi’s A Woman at point Zero. To this effect, it submits that women are stakeholders in the structure of matriarchy and the substructure of patriarchy and men are mere puns in the structure of matriarchal subjugation of their fellow woman. The concept of pun(s) which is play on word is used in its expounded form on how women manipulate men physically and psychologically for their economic and political gains.

Opis:
Children’s books have always courted controversy, from nineteenth-century debates on the dangers of fairy tales to publications of the last fift y years that have off ered a challenge to the notion of what might be suitable literature for the young. Such a description will not surprise anyone familiar with the ideologically ambivalent or contradictory ideas about childhood that are articulated and negotiated in children’s fiction, and aware of the degree to which children’s writers in general have taken the conflicts and political realities of modern history as their manifest topics. This paper will address controversial subject matter and a source of interest of much contemporary children’s literature, the fictional coverage of familial and postcolonial conflicts, and will question traditional assumptions about children’s literature as an apolitical genre. It proposes that children’s texts are now in a position to envision new modes of response or resistance, challenging the uneven power relations of colonialism. More specifically, it will demonstrate how Farmer’s novels have questioned the dominant discourses that constitute cultural givens yet sometimes straddled the border between subversion and an uneasy complicity. The argument investigates what these texts have to say about colonial histories, relations of colonial power, and the projected futures of postcolonial societies. The African novels of Nancy Farmer, I will argue, raise postcolonial issues with a mix of compliance with and resistance to colonial ideologies.

Opis:
This article is aimed at analyzing the break between fathers and their children in the texts of Boubacar Boris Diop, in which another figure often replaces that of the biological parent. Participating in the identity construction of his foster son, the spiritual father grants him memory which is contradictory to the official history. This clash, omnipresent in Boubacar Boris Diop’s novels, testifies of a change of paradigm revealing a deep crisis of the father figure in African postcolonial societies. We are indeed very far from the mythicized image of the pater nobilis which used to be omnipresent in African literature.

Opis:
This study shows that it is simplistic to argue that the narrative dynamics in contemporary Francophone African novel is monotonous. It then consists in demonstrating that it is rather indicative of a striking realism that it sometimes offers to see horrific scenes of life exhibited such that the reader immediately succumb to the temptation to share the worldview of author in review through the characters involved. Based on the operationalization of the explicit-implicit duality as structured in Pierre Barberis’s sociocriticism framework, the study postulates, in two parts, that hypotyposis is a fertile and multiple variable figure which is spread at the same time like the modalisation of an event, a relevant semiological sign, a figure of the transcendence convened by the novelist in order to collect the attention of the reader by touching his psyche and causing in him a certain number of emotions such as the feeling of horror.
La présente étude montre qu’il est réducteur de soutenir que la dynamique de narration dans le roman africain francophone contemporain est monocorde. Il s’agit alors de la monstration qu’elle est plutôt révélatrice d’un réalisme si saisissant qu’il offre parfois à voir des scènes de vie horribles exhibées telles que le lecteur succombe immédiatement à la tentation de partager la vision du monde de l’auteur en examen par le biais des personnages mis en jeu. Fondée sur l’opérationnalisation du diptyque explicite-implicite structuré à travers la sociocritique de Pierre Barbéris, l’étude postule, en deux parties, que l’hypotypose est une figure féconde à variable multiple qui se déploie à la fois comme la modalisation d’un événement, un signe sémiologique pertinent, une figure de la transcendance convoquée par le romancier en vue de capter l’attention du lecteur et de toucher sa psyché en suscitant en lui un certain nombre d’émotions, par exemple le sentiment de l’horrible.

Opis:
Artykuł omawia genologiczne aspekty południowoafrykańskiej powieści farmerskiej (plaasroman), ze wskazaniem na aktualne odczytania tego gatunku w nurcie współczesnej prozy postkolonialnej. Tradycyjna plaasroman realizowała wartości typowe dla nacjonalizmu, rasizmu i patriarchalizmu, które z jednej strony ukonstytuowały poczucie przynależności narodowej Burów, z drugiej zaś legły u podstaw usankcjonowanego później systemu segregacji rasowej. Z tego powodu podstawowy schemat fabularny plaasroman stał się obiektem ironicznych reinterpretacji pisarzy kontestujących system kolonialny, jak ma to miejsce w omówionych w pracy powieściach: Życie i czasy Michaela K. J. M. Coetzeego, Trawa śpiewa Doris Lessing oraz Zachować swój świat Nadine Gordimer.
The article contains a generic analysis of a traditional South African farm novel (plaasroman) including current reception of this genre within contemporary post-colonial fiction. A classic plaasroman was based on social values such as nationalism, racism and patriarchalism, which constituted a sense of national identity of the Boers, but also became the basis of the institutionalized racial discrimination. For this reason, the main narrative theme of plaasroman has been critically rewritten by the writers who contested colonial authority. These reinterpretations are being discussed based on three examples — Life and Times of Michael K. by J. M. Coetzee, The grass is singing by Doris Lessing and The Conservationist by Nadine Gordimer.
