Van Doorn ii EDITORIAL POLICY African Studies Abstracts Online provides an overview of articles from periodicals and edited works on sub-Saharan Africa in the field of the social sciences and the humanities available in the African Studies Centre library. Coverage African Studies Abstracts Online covers edited works (up to 50 in each issue) and a wide range of journals in the field of African studies. Some 240 journals are systematically scanned. Just over half of these are English-language journals, just under a quarter are French, and most of the rest are German. A few Afrikaans, Dutch, Italian and Portuguese-language journals are also covered. Some 40 percent of all the journals are published in Africa. Newspapers and weeklies, popular magazines and current affairs bulletins, statistical digests, directories, annual reports and newsletters are, with rare exceptions, not scanned. Articles from journals published in Africa and from leading Africanist journals published outside the continent are provided with abstracts. Articles from other journals, including journals on North Africa, are catalogued and indexed without abstracts. All articles are included in the African Studies Centre Library OPAC at http://opc4-ascl.pica.nl/DB=3/LNG=EN/ To be selected for abstracting/indexing an article must be at least two to three pages long, and have been published within the past two years (though some allowance is made for journals which have fallen behind on publication schedules or which, for whatever reason, have taken a long time to arrive). In a few specific cases, an article may be excluded on the grounds of subject. In particular, articles in the field of linguistics and those in the field of literature dealing with only one work are normally not selected. This also applies to purely descriptive articles covering current political events or economic developments, which could be expected to become quickly outdated, though this rule is applied less rigorously in the case of a country about which very little is otherwise published. Review articles and book reviews are not covered. Contents and arrangement In principle African Studies Abstracts Online is published four times a year. Each issue contains up to 450 titles with abstracts of collective volumes and journal articles. Items are numbered sequentially and arranged geographically according to the broad regions of Africa. There is a preliminary general section for entries whose scope extends beyond iii Africa, followed by a separate section for entries dealing with the continent as a whole. There is also a section for entries dealing with sub-Saharan Africa. Within the broad geographical regions of Northeast, West, West Central, East, Southeast Central and Southern Africa and the Indian Ocean islands, entries are arranged by country, and within each country, alphabetically according to author. Entries covering two countries appear twice, once under each country heading. Entries covering three or more countries are generally classified under the relevant regional heading. Each entry provides the conventional bibliographical information together with an abstract in the language of the original document. The abstract covers the essentials of the publication in 10-20 lines. It includes a description of subject and purpose, disciplinary approach, nature of the research and source materials (fieldwork, archives, oral traditions, etc.). Where applicable an indication of the time period, specific geographical information (such as names of towns, villages or districts), as well as the names of persons, languages and ethnic groups, are also included. Indexes and list of sources Each issue of African Studies Abstracts Online contains a geographical index, a subject index, and an author index, all referring to abstract number. The geographical index is at a region and country level. It refers to both abstract and page number, and for some may serve as a surrogate table of contents. The subject index is self-devised and is intended as a first and global indication of subjects. It follows roughly the main classes of the UDC, with categories for general, religion and philosophy, culture and society, politics, economics, law, education, anthropology, medical care and health services, rural and urban planning and geography, language and literature, and history and biography. Each category is further subdivided into a number of subcategories. Abstracts of items included under more than one country heading are indexed in the geographical index under each country. In the subject and author indexes they are indexed only once; the reference is always to the first time an entry appears. In addition, each issue of African Studies Abstracts Online contains a list of periodicals abstracted which provides information on title, current place of publication and ISSN of all periodicals from which articles have been selected, as well as indicating which issues of the periodical in question have been covered. A complete list of all periodicals regularly scanned for abstracting or indexing is available on the African Studies Centre website at: http://www.ascleiden.nl/Library/Abstracts/ As always, comments or suggestions are very welcome. iv GEOGRAPHICAL INDEX abstract number page INTERNATIONAL General 1-5 16 AFRICA General 6-75 18 NORTHEAST AFRICA Eritrea 76-83 57 Ethiopia 84-89 61 Horn of Africa 90 64 Sudan 91-93 65 AFRICA SOUTH OF THE SAHARA General 94-110 66 WEST AFRICA General 111-120 76 Benin 121-123 82 Burkina Faso 124 84 Ghana 125-134 84 Guinea 135 90 Ivory Coast 136-137 91 Liberia 138 92 Mali 139-147 93 Mauritania 148-149 98 Niger 150 99 Nigeria 151-180 100 Senegal 181-189 116 Sierra Leone 190-191 122 Togo 192 123 WEST CENTRAL AFRICA General 193 124 Angola 194-195 125 1 GEOGRAPHICAL INDEX abstract number page Cameroon 196-199 126 Congo (Brazzaville) 200-202 128 Congo (Kinshasa) 203-219 130 Equatorial Guinea 220-221 141 Gabon 222 142 EAST AFRICA General 223-228 143 Kenya 229-238 147 Rwanda 239-242 152 Tanzania 243-246 154 Uganda 247-250 156 SOUTHEAST CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AFRICA General 251-258 158 SOUTHEAST CENTRAL AFRICA General 259 163 Malawi 260-266 163 Mozambique 267-271 167 Zambia 272-274 169 Zimbabwe 275-284 171 SOUTHERN AFRICA General 285 177 Botswana 286-298 177 Lesotho 299-302 184 Namibia 303-305 186 South Africa 306-372 188 Swaziland 373 225 ISLANDS General 374 225 Madagascar 375 226 2 SUBJECT INDEX A.

  • Zimbabwe's White Writing, 1980 to 2011
    ‘SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO?’ ZIMBABWE’S WHITE WRITING, 1980 TO 2011 by CUTHBETH TAGWIREI Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of English Studies in the Faculty of English at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Leon de Kock December 2014 Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. December 2014 Copyright © 2014 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This thesis finds its epistemological basis in two related motives: the re-conceptualisation of white writing in Zimbabwe as a sub-category of Zimbabwean literature, and the recognition of white narratives as necessarily dialogic. The first motive follows the realization that writing by Zimbabwean whites is systematically marginalized from “mainstream” Zimbabwean literature owing to its perceived irrelevance to the postcolonial Zimbabwean nation. Through an application of Even-Zohar’s polysystem theory, this thesis argues for a recognition of white writing as a literary sub-system existing in relation to other literary and non-literary systems in Zimbabwe’s polysystem of culture. As its second motive, the thesis also calls for a critical approach to white Zimbabwean narratives built on the understanding that the study of literature can no longer be left to monologic approaches alone.

  • 1 Interviewing David Mungoshi on His New Book 'The Fading Sun'
    Interviewing David Mungoshi on his new book ‘The Fading Sun’ which won Zimbabwe's National Arts Merit Award (NAMA) 2010 in the Outstanding Fiction category. Mungoshi is also a lecturer in the university of Zimbabwe’s Linguistics department. This interview was conducted by Memory Chirere on his blog KWACHIRERE found on http://memorychirere.blogspot.com/ kwaChirere: Congratulations, David, for winning the NAMA. David Mungoshi: I never thought I'd hear those words from anyone! The award has made a lot of people other than myself very happy: my wife Elizabeth and the children and everyone in the Mungoshi clan. My younger brother in Canada has just ordered a copy for himself with amazon.com. Man, I am very happy. kwaChirere: You have not published a major work since your ‘Stains On The wall’ in 1992. Reasons? DM: That’s a difficult to answer. I never stopped writing. kwaChirere: Mary, the central character in ‘The Fading Sun’ has cancer and other various maladies. What inspired this story? What did you want to get at? DM: I have always been gender-inspired. I remember writing a pretentious little story many years ago in which I was examining the question of Lobola. Pretentious because I was still just early into my teens and obviously quite green in such matters. Anyway I called the story,’ She’s a Commodity.’ I don’t remember what happened to it.It’s a story of how a woman rises higher than her husband in the party of liberation and how the husband can’t handle that and starts getting physical.

  • An Analysis of the Gutsaruzhinji Polity in Zimbabwe
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE GUTSARUZHINJI POLITY IN ZIMBABWE BY KUDAKWASHE BHASIKITI SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR BERNARD MATOLINO Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Philosophy in the School of Philosophy and Ethics. UNIVERSITY OF KWAZULU-NATAL PIETERMARITZBURG CAMPUS 2017 DECLARATION ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The constant guidance by my supervisor Professor Bernard Matolino is heartly acknowledged. My typist Antony Chiweshe and two gentlemen who took their precious time to edit my work, Dr. Douglas McClymont and Dr. David Mungoshi are gratefully acknowledged. May I also thank the UKZN Administration for the material, financial and moral support they provided as I carried out this study. iii DEDICATION This work is dedicated to all the suffering masses of Zimbabwe and Africa in general. May all the Bhasikiti and Murove Chieftainship Family be encouraged to serve their community and nation well. iv ABSTRACT The absence of a sound and robust African political ideology grounded in Africa‘s traditional and cultural philosophy of hunhu/ubuntu has led to Africa‘s continued subjugation and domination by both Western and Eastern bloc nations. Africa has been compelled to choose between capitalism or socialism which are both foreign ideologies. The author strongly contests the above view and provides an alternative ideology which is in all respects African and grounded in Africa‘s richest philosophy of hunhu/ubuntu. Gutsaruzhinji, both as a philosophy and political ideology is entrenched in traditional African cultural ideals rooted in the hunhu/ubuntu philosophy. It is the author‘s contention that gutsaruzhinji is an aunthentic African philosophy, tested in Zimbabwean politics, deserves to be assigned both regional and international status.
