Zusammenfassung: | "This book explores the unique contributions of various forms of post-2000 life-writings such as the autobiography, epistles and biographies to discourses about the nature and socio-politics of what has become known as the Zimbabwean crisis (c. 2000 - 2009). Much of what has been written about the Zimbabwean crisis - a decade-long period of unprecedented economic collapse and political upheavals in the southern African country - is strictly discipline-specific and therefore limited to unidimensional modes of theorizing the crisis's many and complex dimensions and dynamics. In this context, this book charts a paradigm shift in hermeneutic and epistemological approaches to comprehending the Zimbabwean crisis. Life Writing from the Margins in Zimbabwe centres the experiences and memories of ordinary Zimbabweans in pluralizing modes of seeing and knowing the crisis. The book argues that these life-writings present a rich site for encountering versions of the crisis that relate in counter-discursive ways, to the dominant, state-authored narrative of the nation in crisis. Oliver Nyambi's analysis contributes new ideas to ongoing debates about how cultural texts reflect on the postcoloniality of both power, and experiences and negotiations of power in the context of crisis. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of African literature, Zimbabwean/African studies, postcolonial literature, life-writing and cultural studies"--Provided by publisher. |

Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2019. ©2019 1 online resource (x, 235 pages) text txt rdacontent computer n rdamedia online resource nc rdacarrier Routledge contemporary Africa series Includes bibliographical references and index. Introduction: contested versions of nation, nationness and nationality -- "Howzat": sport, representing and re-presenting the nation in Henry Olonga's Blood, sweat and treason: my story -- Alternative iconographies: recentering unconventional memories in Tekere's A lifetime of struggle -- "All the beautiful soldiers": narrating trauma and state violence in Hope deferred: narratives of Zimbabwean lives -- "Through the eyes of a mum": the affects of disclosure and moral justice in Cathy Buckle's Life writings of the crisis -- "In the midst of a very dark Africa": land, spirituality and an enduring coloniality in Henry Jackson's Another farm in Africa -- Black racism?: negotiating the colour of belonging in Mugabe and the white African. "This book explores the unique contributions of various forms of post-2000 life-writings such as the autobiography, epistles and biographies to discourses about the nature and socio-politics of what has become known as the Zimbabwean crisis (c. 2000 - 2009). Much of what has been written about the Zimbabwean crisis - a decade-long period of unprecedented economic collapse and political upheavals in the southern African country - is strictly discipline-specific and therefore limited to unidimensional modes of theorizing the crisis's many and complex dimensions and dynamics. In this context, this book charts a paradigm shift in hermeneutic and epistemological approaches to comprehending the Zimbabwean crisis. Life Writing from the Margins in Zimbabwe centres the experiences and memories of ordinary Zimbabweans in pluralizing modes of seeing and knowing the crisis. The book argues that these life-writings present a rich site for encountering versions of the crisis that relate in counter-discursive ways, to the dominant, state-authored narrative of the nation in crisis. Oliver Nyambi's analysis contributes new ideas to ongoing debates about how cultural texts reflect on the postcoloniality of both power, and experiences and negotiations of power in the context of crisis. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of African literature, Zimbabwean/African studies, postcolonial literature, life-writing and cultural studies"--Provided by publisher.
