Expert's Views on the Dilemmas of African Writers
EXPERTS’ VIEWS ON THE DILEMMAS OF AFRICAN WRITERS: CONTRIBUTIONS, CHALLENGES AND PROSPECTS By Sarah Kaddu Abstract African writers have faced the “dilemma syndrome” in the execution of their mission. They have faced not only “bed of roses” but also “the bed of thorns”. On one hand, African writers such as Chinua Achebe have made a fortune from royalties from his African Writers’ Series (AWS) and others such as Wole Soyinka, Ben Okri and Naruddin Farah have depended on prestigious book prizes. On the other hand, some African writers have also, according to Larson (2001), faced various challenges: running bankrupt, political and social persecution, business sabotage, loss of life or escaping catastrophe by “hair breadth”. Nevertheless, the African writers have persisted with either success or agony. Against this backdrop, this paper examines the experts’ views on the contributions of African writers to the extending of national and international frontiers in publishing as well as the attendant handicaps before proposing strategies for overcoming the challenges encountered. The specific objectives are to establish some of the works published by the African writers; determine the contribution of the works published by African writers to in terms of political, economic, and cultural illumination; examine the challenges encountered in the publishing process of the African writers’ works; and, predict trends in the future of the African writers’ series. The study findings illuminate on the contributions to political, social, gender, cultural re-awakening and documentation, poetry and literature, growth of the book trade and publishing industry/employment in addition to major challenges encountered. The study entailed extensive analysis of literature, interviews with experts on African writings from the Uganda Christian University and Makerere University, and African Writers Trust; focus group discussions with publishers, and a few selected African writers, and a review of the selected pioneering publications of African writers. -

Claim No. Anne Giwa-Amu Claimant
/,., . Claim No. Anne Giwa-Amu Claimant -and- Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie 1St Defendant ~Iarper Collins Publishers Ltd 2°~ Defendant ~,I..Y „~ S sS/~ ,q ~P+ '~a¢raa Pt~RTICULARS OF CLAIM m y e ~~NTY G~~ 1)The Claimant is a qualified Solicitor and obtained her LL.B degree from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). The Claimant lived in Nigeria from 1961 — 1974. She is a UK resident and the author of the literary novel `SADE'/'SADE United We Stand'. 2) In 1993, the Claimant started writing the literary novel now entitled SADE which was based on her own knowledge and experiences in Nigeria. Over many years, the Claimant had carried out extensive research, visited the Red Cross Centre at Guilford and interviewed a number of people, including Dr Patrick Ediomi Davis (Paddy Davies) who had worked for the Biafran Propaganda Secretariat. Paddy Davies obtained a degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D) on the use of propaganda in civil war focusing on the Biafran experience. The Claimant collated and interpreted material and compiled the sequence of events in SADE exerting a substantial amount of skill, labour and judgement. 3)Between 1994-1995, the Claimant sent a copy of her manuscript to the 2"d Defendant along with other publishing houses. Although Heinemann UK accepted Sade for 1 ~... publication under the African Writers' Series they failed to publish. Chinua Achebe was one of the founding editors of the African Writers' Series which had been established to promote black African literature. The novel was also accepted for publication by Longman UK who also failed to publish following to a policy decision not to publish Nigerian literature due to a lack of market. -

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). -

He also told the court that Mr. Taylor was not responsible for an arms drop-off that is at the center of allegations related to supermodel Naomi Campbell.
