  • The Goldsmiths Prize and Its Conceptualization of Experimental Literature
    The Goldsmiths Prize and Its Conceptualization 35 of Experimental Literature The Goldsmiths Prize and Its Conceptualization of Experimental Literature Wojciech Drąg University of Wrocław Abstract: In the aftermath of a critical debate regarding the Man Booker Prize’s adoption of ‘readability’ as the main criterion of literary value, Goldsmiths College established a new literary prize. The Goldsmiths Prize was launched in 2013 as a celebration of ‘fiction that breaks the mould or extends the possibil- ities of the novel form.’ Throughout its six editions, the prize has been awarded to such writers as Ali Smith, Nicola Barker and Eimear McBride, and has at- tracted a lot of media attention. Annually, its jury have written press features praising the shortlisted books, while invited novelists have given lectures on the condition of the novel. Thanks to its quickly won popularity, the Goldsmiths Prize has become the main institution promoting – and conceptualizing – ‘ex- perimental’ fiction in Britain. This article aims to examine all the promotional material accompanying each edition – including jury statements, press releases and commissioned articles in the New Statesman – in order to analyze how the prize defines experimentalism. Keywords: Goldsmiths Prize, literary prizes, experimental literature, avant-gar- de, contemporary British fiction Literary experimentalism is a notion both notoriously difficult to define and generally disliked by those to whose work it is often applied. B.S. Johnson famously stated that ‘to most reviewers [it] is almost always a synonym for “unsuccessful”’ (1973, 19). Among other acclaimed avant-garde authors who defied the label were Raymond Federmann and Ronald Sukenick (Bray, Gib- bon, and McHale 2012, 2-3).

  • Prizing African Literature: Awards and Cultural Value
    Prizing African Literature: Awards and Cultural Value Doseline Wanjiru Kiguru Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Stellenbosch University Supervisors: Dr. Daniel Roux and Dr. Mathilda Slabbert Department of English Studies Stellenbosch University March 2016 i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained herein 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. 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).

  • Textual Transformations in Contemporary Black Writing in Britain
    Advances in Language and Literary Studies ISSN: 2203-4714 Vol. 5 No. 2; April 2014 Copyright © Australian International Academic Centre, Australia Textual Transformations in Contemporary Black Writing in Britain Jawhar Ahmed Dhouib Department of English, University of Gabes PO Box 6000, Ali Jmel, Gabes, Tunisia E-mail: [email protected] Doi:10.7575/aiac.alls.v.5n.2p.120 Received: 21/02/2014 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.7575/aiac.alls.v.5n.2p.120 Accepted: 08/04/2014 Abstract While the first wave of Caribbean immigrant writers brilliantly explored race-related issues, black Britons like Andrea Levy, Zadie Smith and Caryl Phillips, among others, have sought to depart from earlier fiction, motivated in their project by the changing white face of Britain. In this article, I would like to argue that cultural change in Britain has deeply influenced literary production and has, consequently, laid the ground for a series of textual transformations. To capture instances of creative excess in contemporary black writing in Britain, I will bring under examination Caryl Phillips’s (2009) novel In the Falling Snow. My intention is to show to what extent Phillips’s work surpasses the ‘noose of race’ and already-familiar representations of multicultural Britain to celebrate a ‘post-racial’ society. Keywords: Caryl Phillips, Caribbean diaspora, contemporary black writing, multiculturalism, polyculturalism 1. Introduction Novels by pioneer West Indian writers in Britain, chief among whom are V.S. Naipaul, Samuel Selvon, George Lamming and Wilson Harris, to name but a few, have offered a lively palette of stories, bittersweet anecdotes, vivid experiences and profound meditations on the journey from the Caribbean to the metropolis.

  • The Novel Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo
    119 ACTA NEOPHILOLOGICA UDK: 821.111.09-31Evaristo B. DOI: 10.4312/an.53.1-2.119-131 Stigma as an Attribute of Oppression or an Agent of Change: The Novel Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo Darja Zorc-Maver Abstract The purpose of this paper is to describe the processes of stigmatization and oppression of women as presented by Bernardine Evaristo in her book Girl, Women, Other. The book features twelve female characters who are very different from each other, but what they have in common is that they each, in their own way, face stigma, misunderstanding and social exclusion. The social construction of stigma causes various kinds of social inequali- ties of the stigmatized. Through the fictional narratives of the stigmatized and the reflec- tion of their position in the novel, stigmatized women become the bearers of change and not merely the victims of oppression. Key words: stigma, racism, oppression, gender, Bernardine Evaristo Acta_Neophilologica_2020_FINAL.indd 119 23. 11. 2020 07:19:52 120 DARJA ZORC-MAVER In 2019 the prestigious Booker Prize for Fiction went to two women writers for their new novels, the Canadian literary icon Margaret Atwood (The Testa- ments) and the first black British woman author of fiction to win it, Bernardine Evaristo (Girl, Woman, Other). The prize, a proven literarysuccès d’estime, is a big achievement for black British women that now have an internationally acclaimed contemporary literary voice. This is a contemporary panoramic, polyphonic novel, written partly in prose and partly as a poem or simply a poem in prose, without using initial capital letters in sentences and full-stops apart from the endings of individual (sub)chapters, which describes the fictional lives of mostly black wom- en in Britain.

Exploring all forms of terrorism in both a historical and contemporary context, the book addresses complex and pressing questions in an everyday, accessible language. Because Ben Jelloun understands that terrorist acts come from the perpetrators’ deep sense of inadequacy, his arguments are all the more powerful. He places a high value on the importance of secular values, with which he believes Islam is compatible. This is an eloquent, timely plea for TAHAR BEN JELLOUN is a tolerance and understanding.

  • The Case of Bernardine Evaristo's Soul Tourists
    Revue de Traduction et Langues Volume 18 Numéro 2/2019, pp. 63-84 مجلة الترجمة واللغات Journal of Translation Languages ISSN (Print): 1112-3974 EISSN (Online): 2600-6235 (Re)Mapping Europe from a Black Diasporic Perspective: The Case of Bernardine Evaristo's Soul Tourists AAID Salah Eddine Badji Mokhtar of Annaba University -Algeria [email protected] Pr. MAOUI Hocine Badji Mokhtar-Annaba University-Algeria [email protected] Received: 16/11/ 2018; Accepted: 29/12/2019, Published: 31/12/2019 Abstract: Inscribed in Homi Bhabha's project of "re-inventing Britain" and Stuart Hall's representation of cultural diversity, the present study explores the way in which the tropes of magical realism have been implemented to remap the new frontiers of the European construct in Bernardine Evaristo's Soul Tourists. In order to achieve this aim, a close reading technique has been relied on to deconstruct the text into basic dichotomies that trace the European centre and its margin. Furthermore, the British magical realism model of Anne Hegerfeldt is employed to highlight how the writer successfully reversed the realistic paradigm of the centre as she focalised the narration from an "ex- centric" point of view. In doing so, Europe became a warm home for the diasporic subject. Keywords: Decentring Europe - Ex-centric Focalization - Magical Realism - Psychological Literalization - Soul Tourists. Résumé: Inscrite dans le projet de Homi Bhabha de "réinventer la Grande- Bretagne" et dans le cadre de la représentation de la diversité culturelle par Stuart Hall, l'étude suivante explore la manière dont les tropes du réalisme magique ont été mis en œuvre pour remodeler les nouvelles frontières de l'identité européenne dans le roman Soul Touristes [Les Touristes de L'âme] rédigé par l'écrivaine Britannique Bernardine Evaristo.

  • Talks at GS with Bernardine Evaristo
    KATHLEEN HUGHES: Hello and welcome to Talks at GS. Today we are delighted to welcome Bernardine Evaristo, the renowned author and winner of last year's Booker Prize, as well as the British Book Authors' Author of the Year and Fiction Book of the Year for her novel Girl, Woman, Other. In total, BERNARDINE has published eight books. And if that weren't enough, BERNARDINE is also a Professor of Creative Writing at Brunel University London. Thank you for taking the time to be with us today. BERNARDINE EVARISTO: Hi. Well, I look forward to talking to you. KATHLEEN HUGHES: Fantastic. Why don't we start with the obvious place, which is your most recent and most critically acclaimed work. As I mentioned in the intro, you won a number of literature prizes for Girl, Woman, Other. Can you please talk us through why you wrote the book and any inspiration behind the book? BERNARDINE EVARISTO: Sure. I wrote the book-- I actually started writing it in 2013 and it took five years to write. And I wrote it because I was so aware that there weren't enough Black British women writers out there writing fiction. Well, I knew that anyway. I knew that I was only one a handful, almost, writing adult novels. And also, I was really frustrated at the lack of representation of Black British women in fiction. And I always sort of emphasize British because there is, actually, a really sort of rich and fertile field of African American women's writing, and also African writing now.
