Decolonising the Mind: The Politics of Language in African Literature – Ngugi wa Thiong’o
270.00kr
A collection of essays about language and its constructive role in national culture, history, and identity, that advocates for linguistic decolonization.
‘The language of literature’, Ngũgĩ writes, ‘cannot be discussed meaningfully outside the context of those social forces which have made it both an issue demanding our attention, and a problem calling for a resolution.’ First published in 1986, Decolonising the Mind is one of Ngũgĩ’s best-known and most-cited non-fiction publications, helping to cement him as a pre-eminent voice theorizing the ‘language debate’ in postcolonial studies.
