Critics discuss themes and literary movements including women's literature; language and the problems of communication in African literature; the link between traditional and contemporary experience; use of sociological material; and questions about the universality of a work of art. From the writers' individual relationships towards African culture, this edited collection attempts to establish a consistent literary and historical context; and to judge the writers' successes in their treatment of contemporary African society and its realities.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fourth Dimension Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47591132397719,"sku":"9789781561368","price":4451.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789781561368.webp?v=1774971729","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/social-experience-in-african-literature-9789781561368","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
