ref. B9798765122754Paperback / softback. New. A representative overview of some of the most pressing concerns in contemporary literary criticism in South Africa demonstrating literary form's shaping power in the interpretation of politically contentious content. Rather than pressing literature into the service of a political cause or programme this study's purpose – its politics of interpretation – is to open literature to the potential of human experience in both the personal and the public life. The society of focus – South Africa – is a society of political contestation. Instead of prioritizing the what of contestation however Michael Chapman explores contestation through the how of the literary work. In sharp transactions between an intransitivity of form and a compulsion to communicate the book elucidates an ethics of aesthetics in J. M. Coetzee and Nadine Gordimer and the best of modernism and the worst of modernism in Roy Campbell’s poetry. It also asks: Can Themba’s ‘style’ of the shebeens in the 1950s be re-visited in a contemporary context of gender-based abuse Why or how are Ellen Kuzwayo and Mtutuzeli Matshoba writing in the ‘struggle’ years of the 1970s simultaneously less than artists and more than artists Has the interpretative frame of the ‘postcolonial’ best served fiction after apartheid What language of interpretation best releases the voices of contemporary women’s poetry: a poetry which in its play on identities and identifications looks both inwards to its locality and outwards to the globe Alert to both South Africa’s colonial past and its assertions of today Literary Transactions in South Africa pursues the challenge of interpreting a literature of disjuncture between Africa and the West or the South and the North. paperback

ref. B9781501374197Paperback / softback. New. This open access book positions itself at the intersection of world literature studies literary anthropology and philosophical critiques of ‘world’ and ‘globe’ concepts. Doing so it investigates how literature imagines and shapes worlds for its readers through linguistically specific cosmopolitan-vernacular dynamics both at the level of textual engagement and on a material level of textual production and circulation. Moving from textual analyses in Part One – ‘Worlds in Texts’ – to combined analyses of texts media and agents in the literary field in Part Two – ‘Texts in Worlds’ – the concerns of these nine chapters range from multilingualism genre and style to material forms such as the little magazine or the scrapbook archive and finally to activities such as travel as a writing profession and literary promotion. With this focus on practice – which geographically engages with Constantinople China Russia western Europe North America southern Africa and India – contributors demonstrate methodologically how world literature studies can bring the empirically specific detail to bear on global modes of analysis. It is precisely through such a dual optic that the world-making capacity of literature becomes apparent.
