Paperback. Condition: New. Gabriel Okara, a prize-winning author whose literary career spans six decades, is rightly hailed as the elder statesman of Nigerian literature. The first Modernist poet of anglophone Africa, he is best known for The Fisherman's Invocation (1978), The Dreamer, His Vision (2005), and for his early experimental novel, The Voice (1964). Arranged in six sections, Gabriel Okara: Collected Poems includes the poet's earliest lyric verse along with poems written in response to Nigeria's war years; literary tributes and elegies to fellow poets, activists, and loved ones long dead; and recent dramatic and narrative poems. The introduction by Brenda Marie Osbey contextualizes Okara's work in the history of Nigerian, African, and English language literatures. Gabriel Okara: Collected Poems is at once a treasure for those long in search of a single authoritative edition and a revelation and timely introduction for readers new to the work of one of Africa's most revered poets.

Auflage * Umfang/Format: 134 Seiten ; 20 cm * Einbandart und Originalverkaufspreis: : 4.50 * Sachgebiet: Belletristik Die Stimme der jungen Generation Afrikas klingt aus den Worten Okolos, der von der Schule in sein Heimatdorf zurückkehrt. Nichts kann ihn davon abhalten, seine bohrenden Fragen nach dem Es zu stellen, nach der neuen Lebensweise, die seinem Volk angemessen ist. Und weil die großen und kleinen Häuptlinge, die nach dem Abzug der weißen Herren die Macht besitzen und genießen, auf diese Frage keine Antwort geben können, greifen sie schließlich zum bewährten letzten Mittel der Könige, zur Gewalt. Sie verbannen ihn, aber er entrinnt der unheimlichen Atmosphäre der Stadt Sologa und kommt zurück. Und er bleibt nicht allein, auch nicht im Untergang. Ihn können sie zum Verstummen bringen, doch nicht die Stimme. In einer einfachen, aber einprägsamen und symbolisch verdichteten Handlung und einer ihr angepaßten, unverwechselbaren Sprache gestaltet der nigerianische Lyriker Gabriel Okara in seinem ersten Roman wesentliche afrikanische Gegenwartsprobleme: die Überwindung von Rückständigkeit und Korruption, die.
