March 2016 Signature…………….………….. Copyright © 2016 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved ii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Dedication To Dr. Mutuma Ruteere iii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This study investigates the centrality of international literary awards in African literary production with an emphasis on the Caine Prize for African Writing (CP) and the Commonwealth Short Story Prize (CWSSP). It acknowledges that the production of cultural value in any kind of setting is not always just a social process, but it is also always politicised and leaning towards the prevailing social power. The prize-winning short stories are highly influenced or dependent on the material conditions of the stories’ production and consumption. The content is shaped by the prize, its requirements, rules, and regulations as well as the politics associated with the specific prize. As James English (2005) asserts, “[t]here is no evading the social and political freight of a global award at a time when global markets determine more and more the fate of local symbolic economies” (298).

Possibility-Space and Its Imaginative Variations in Alice Munro’s Short Stories. Pp.192. Stockholm: ISBN: 978-91-7155-770-4 With its perennial interest in the seemingly ordinary lives of small-town people, Alice Munro’s fiction displays a deceptively simple surface reality that on closer scrutiny reveals intricate levels of unexpected complexity about the fundamentals of human experience: love, choice, mortality, faith and the force of language. This study takes as its main purpose the explora- tion of Munro’s stories in terms of the intricacy of emotions in the face of commonplace events of life and their emerging possibilities. I argue that the ontological levels of fiction and reality remain in the realm of the real; these levels exist and merge as the possibilities of each other. Munro’s realism is explored in terms of its connection to possibilities that arise out of a particu- lar type of fatality. The phenomenon of possibility permeates Munro’s stories. An inves- tigation of this phenomenon shows a curious paradox between possibility and necessity. In order to discuss the complexity of this paradox I introduce the temporal/spatial concept of possibility-space and notions of the fatal.

  • The Enigma of Development: Building a Reflexive Point of View
    The Enigma of Development: Building a Reflexive Point of View Across Remote Contexts James Macfarlane Thesis submitted towards the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics at the University of Newcastle January 2016 Supervisors: Dr Andrew Crumey and Dr James Procter i I would like to thank my supervisors Dr Andrew Crumey and Dr James Procter for their guidance during the writing of this thesis. Further, I would like to express my appreciation for the work undertaken by my examiners Dr Will Buckingham and Professor Bill Herbert in following my research to its conclusion. Finally I dedicate this thesis to my wife Michelle and those from whom I have most come to appreciate the value of knowledge: my sons Ruairidh, Gregor and Alasdair. ii Abstract This thesis singles out point of view (POV) as the governing technical choice in creative writing. As such it integrates creative practice with an essay on the theoretical basis for a POV across remote contexts. The methodology follows Mikhail Bakhtin’s call for a new story telling position through an enquiry into Western literary history, Classical Chinese novels and Gao Xingjian’s partitioning of POV by narrative angle. Part One Chapter one establishes the importance of POV to motives in my own creative work and sets out the case for Bakhtin over normative theorists, calling for a reconfiguration of POV to withstand contextual aberrations arising from cultural or historical differences, or from the boundaries of what Bakhtin refers to as Small Time presentism. Further, it argues against Tzvetan Todorov’s generic view of the novel as a property of discourse, an ahistorical constant, by considering Bakhtin’s meta-historic survey of Western literature with periods of intensified novelistic discourse in given contexts.

  • The Present Elsewhere: Theorizing an Aesthetics of Displacement in Contemporary African American and Postcolonial Literatures
    THE PRESENT ELSEWHERE: THEORIZING AN AESTHETICS OF DISPLACEMENT IN CONTEMPORARY AFRICAN AMERICAN AND POSTCOLONIAL LITERATURES Mary Alice Kirkpatrick A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2010 Approved by: Minrose Gwin William L. Andrews Pamela Cooper Rebecka Rutledge Fisher Trudier Harris © 2010 Mary Alice Kirkpatrick ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Mary Alice Kirkpatrick: The Present Elsewhere: Theorizing an Aesthetics of Displacement in Contemporary African American and Postcolonial Literatures (Under the direction of Minrose Gwin) “The Present Elsewhere” investigates the aesthetic traits and political implications of displacement in contemporary African American, Caribbean, and Canadian works. Arguing that displacement resonates textually, I interrogate the degree to which artists purposely leave their works in states of flux. Framed through the lens of nomadic, transitional figures (including diasporic cultural orphans, child clairvoyants, and reincarnated ghosts), this project develops the notion of an aesthetics of displacement – that is to say, an aesthetics informed by political urgency. Writers such as Michael Ondaatje, Toni Cade Bambara, and Octavia Butler rearrange customary geographic and chronological placements, unsettle narrative lines, and challenge shared histories of oppression. Propelled into active engagement, readers are encouraged to adopt new roles as migrants and witnesses. The political significance of works that displace radiates externally, as readers are directed toward sites of change well beyond the confines of individual texts. By bringing together seemingly divergent traditions, “The Present Elsewhere” examines the specific historical conditions, cultural backgrounds, and geographic contexts that produce sites of displacement within the Caribbean island, U.

  • Returning Euphronios, Elgin and Nefertiti Value Attribution in the Debate on Cultural Restitution and Ownership
    Returning Euphronios, Elgin and Nefertiti Value attribution in the debate on cultural restitution and ownership Keywords: cultural restitution, ownership, heritage value, stakeholders, antiquities, Euphronios Krater, Elgin Marbles, Bust of Nefertiti, historical value, aesthetic value, cultural/symbolic value, scientific value, economic value, preservation, accessibility. Master’s Thesis Research Master Ancient Studies, University of Utrecht Author: Sophie van Doornmalen Thesis Supervisor: Prof. dr. Leonard Rutgers Second Reader: Dr. Rolf Strootman Date: January 23, 2017 Word amount: 40.818 Abstract In the last decades, the question ‘Who owns antiquity’ has often been debated, as source nations such as Italy, Greece and Egypt have pursued the return of artefacts originating from their nation’s territory and that have ended up in museums in Western countries, such as the USA, the UK and Germany. This master’s thesis examines why different stakeholders in the cultural restitution debate want to own these antiquities and does so by examining which heritage values, namely historical, aesthetic, cultural/symbolic, scientific and economic values, are attributed to the ancient artefacts, as well as looking at arguments of preservation and accessibility. Through a comparative approach of three case studies; the Euphronios Krater, the Elgin Marbles and the Bust of Nefertiti, this thesis scrutinizes how these values are connected to ideas of ownership, by examining how the values attributed by different stakeholders are used to argue for or against their repatriation. This research shows that the cultural restitution debate differs considerably among the cases and the stakeholders. The era and the way in which an object was removed from its source nation are determinative for the type of debate that is being held.
