Abstract:
D'un point de vue thematique, les romans d'armah peuvent se lire comme une tentative visant a la fois a presenter et a contester ce que l'auteur considere comme une vision tronquee de l'histoire et de la societe africaine. Il attribue cette vision a la fascination qu'exercent les valeurs occidentales sur l'imaginaire d'une elite alienee, arrivee au pouvoir apres les independances. Toutefois, la contestation de ces valeurs se repercute inevitablement sur l'evolution formelle de son ecriture : sa quete d'une vision authentique de la realite africaine implique aussi une tentative de rejet des pri

Abstract:
In the 'Introduction', I establish the basic parameters of the investigation, considering the problem of defining the nature and meaning of African Literature and its relationship to African Studies. The problem of African writing as marginalised and reactive, particularly when it is in the dominant English language, is discussed. A brief history of fictional writing in Africa is offered. Movements such as Negritude, Africanist arguments and nationalism are introduced as is the quest for a workable ideology. I show that the uses of the term Postcolonial, indeed the problems with the use of any

Bibliography: p. 260-284.<br>The focus of this dissertation is the thesis that if Ayi Kwei Armah's five novels - The Beautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born (1968), Fragments (1969), Why Are We So Blest? (1972), Two Thousand Seasons (1973) and The Healers (1978) - are closely analysed, they will emerge as a single creative mythology devoted to the fictional disfigurement of Black Africa from primeval times to the present. An analysis of Afiican writings reveals that a body of contemporary African literature has and is still undergoing a distinctive metamorphosis. This change, which amounts to a signif

Abstract:

The introductory chapter extrapolates an account of how the representational strategies of existential alienation produce specific effects on the act of self - writing. From there, the paper explores these effects in Armah’s The Beautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born (1968), arguing that alienation is a valuable heuristic in unlocking the novel’s complex meditation on how abstract, macrohistorical forces like neo - colonialism come to b

Abstract:
The two works addressed in Chapter 4, Ayi Kwei Armah’s The Beautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born and Don DeLillo’s Falling Man, look toward a future that is haunted by the unrealized hopes of the past. Writing in places and historical moments in which imagining a different and better future seems both urgently necessary and impossibly compromised—decolonizing Ghana, and post-9/11 New York—both Armah and DeLillo create dystopian texts that transfer that responsibility onto their future readers through their cyclical structure and ambiguous, open-ended narrative. Resisting simplistic forms of optimism, these texts refuse to take up the flawed rhetorics available to them and remain committed to carrying out clear-eyed social critique. But by leaving their representations of societies in crisis open to reinterpretation and rereading, the novels allow for the possibility that the future might offer hopeful visions that are impossible in the present.
