- W3148784471 abstract "The core of Wole Soyinka's writing career is best described as a sustained attempt to locate African society in the twentieth-century context of the philosophy of culture. His was the immediate generation after the statements of cultural assertion that began with Claude McKay, C.L.R. James, Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, and the Harlem Renaissance and continued in the pronouncements of Leopold Sedar Senghor, Aim Cesaire, Leon G. Damas, and Frantz Fanon. The urge to speak was also influenced by the colonial situation on the African continent,' and there was the gravamen of the crisis of apartheid in South Africa, which Soyinka has claimed time and again as one the deep motivations behind his urge to write. The most essential factor was Soyinka himself, or, more accurately, a cast of mind that had the singular gift of encapsulating cultural statements in elaborate shrouds and veils of metaphors. As considerable as his involvement with contemporary Nigerian and African politics is, the deeper motivations for even Soyinka's latter-day works, consumed so much by an overt topicality, derive from his long-standing commitment to show his theory of culture and society and the place and role of the writer/artist within it." @default.
