    Image of African: A Selective Comparison" and Contrast of Themes and Preoccupations Between Xhosa and Other African Writers
    (University of Fort Hare, 1992-03) Mdaka, Sibizwa Solomzi
    To date, very little scholarly effort has been made to integrate the study of African literature in European languages with that of literature in African languages. In the light of growing recognition of the decolonizing imperative (in which Ngugi's articulation of the political importance of writing in indigenous African languages has perhaps been most influential), this is a lacuna which. urgently needs to be addressed. This study aims to make a small contribution in this direction by analysing parallel themes and preoccupations in selected representative literary texts in English and in Xhosa.
