| dc.description.abstract | African liteiature has shown a steady metamorphosis through the decades beginning with the colonial period to the present. The metamorphosis has manifested interesting phases and trends which have been essentially combatant in nature. From the colonial era to present, colonialism, on the one hand, and against neocolonialism and imperialism, on the other. The period after independence ushered in the literature of auto-criticism, popular in the first instance, with the first set of the second generation of African literary writers. This literature of auto-criticism seems to be at its second phase and more true to type now with Aminata Sow Fall as the precursor of this second phase particularly with the advent of Ex-pere de la nation (1987). That literary work is interested in politics as a societal phenomenon. Thus, Ex-pere de la nation, is for us, a political model for our African political leaders, as this paper intends to divel on. | en_US |
