Manifestations of Social Development and Transformation in African Texts
The course will involve close and comparative analysis of South African and African texts to assess the ways in which social development manifests in literature. Oral and written texts, fiction and non-fiction, as well as graphic work and visual texts like film will be considered to explore representations of different social developments and the effect of these developments on communities and individuals.
