Book Synopsis Of Land, Bones, and Money by : Emily McGiffin
Download or read book Of Land, Bones, and Money written by Emily McGiffin and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2019-07-18 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The South African literature of iimbongi, the oral poets of the amaXhosa people, has long shaped understandings of landscape and history and offered a forum for grappling with change. Of Land, Bones, and Money examines the shifting role of these poets in South African society and the ways in which they have helped inform responses to segregation, apartheid, the injustices of extractive capitalism, and contemporary politics in South Africa. Emily McGiffin first discusses the history of the amaXhosa people and the environment of their homelands before moving on to the arrival of the British, who began a relentless campaign annexing land and resources in the region. Drawing on scholarship in the fields of human geography, political ecology, and postcolonial ecocriticism, she considers isiXhosa poetry in translation within its cultural, historical, and environmental contexts, investigating how these poems struggle with the arrival and expansion of the exploitation of natural resources in South Africa and the entrenchment of profoundly racist politics that the process entailed. In contemporary South Africa, iimbongi remain a respected source of knowledge and cultural identity. Their ongoing practice of producing complex, spiritually rich literature continues to have a profound social effect, contributing directly to the healing and well-being of their audiences, to political transformation, and to environmental justice.

Download or read book It All Begins written by Robert Berold and published by University of Kwazulu Natal Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It All Begins is a collection of poems in English by over fifty South African poets (and some Zimbabweans), with several contemporary translations from /Xam, Afrikaans, Xhosa, Xitsonga and Zulu. All the poems were published in the poetry journal New Coin between 1989 and 1999. These poems were written over a period which included the brutal last years of apartheid, the release of Mandela, the country's first democratic elections, and the disturbing trends of the post-Mandela era. During this time the violence of previous decades continued, although in different forms, while the poor became poorer. For poets, it was a time of innovation. Music, street rhythms, and international influences were opening up the vocabulary. Groundbreaking poems were being written - many of them unnoticed when they were first published. Collected in this anthology, they demonstrate the aesthetic diversity and truth-telling power of South African poetry. Poets include Lionel Abrahams, Tatamkhulu Afrika, Lisa Combrinck, Michael Cope, Jeremy Cronin, Ingrid de Kok, Angifi Dladla, Antjie Krog, Mazisi Kunene, Don Maclennan, Joan Metelerkamp, Kobus Moolman, Khulile Nxumalo, Mxolisi Nyezwa, Andries Oliphant, Karen Press, Lesego Rampolokeng, Ari Sitas, Kelwyn Sole and Stephen Watson.
