Central to the discussion is the topic of contagion and an exploration of vampirism in literature. The article shows the lineage from Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Masque of the Red Death”, to Jack London’s The Scarlet Plague and Bram Stoker’s Dracula, as sources and influences in Matheson’s novel. Prompted by the Covid-19 pandemic, the article explores literary expressions of plague and contagion, as well as the theme of vampirism. Theorists whose work informs the argument include Rosemary Jackson, whose work on fantasy provides insights into subversive elements of speculative literature; Marie Mulvey-Roberts, who addresses the Gothic genre; and J. J. Cohen, who addresses monster theory in detail. The article addresses the subversion of the conventional social order through the vampire narrative, and includes the reconfiguration of human identity in the context of social change.","PeriodicalId":41471,"journal":{"name":"English Academy Review-Southern African Journal of English Studies","volume":"39 1","pages":"83 - 95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81663526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He is a dramatist first as well as being a poet, essayist, and memoirist in a career whose creative energies have never waned. The fact that it has taken him half a century to return to the novel, specifically, creates an irresistible opportunity: to compare and contrast two quite different literary and historical moments in the career of one of Africa’s great writers.","PeriodicalId":41471,"journal":{"name":"English Academy Review-Southern African Journal of English Studies","volume":"46 1","pages":"96 - 104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72911728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inside the Creaking Baobab in Sindiwe Magona’s When the Village Sleeps (2021) 辛迪维·马戈纳的《当村庄沉睡时》中的吱吱作响的猴面包树

The musicological analogy is bolstered by the harmonisation of the polyphonic voice register, coupled with the “unachieved” or the “yet to be achieved” implied in Sindiwe Magona’s wake-up call towards education for life. This article is predicated on Milan Kundera’s three categories of the art of the novel—the art of radical divestment, the art of novelistic counterpoint, and the art of the specifically novelistic essay—which, in turn, determine the progression of my argument. This is no dystopian novel— Magona looks beyond the precarity that she depicts in this metatext for uplifting instances that epitomise the central tropes of ubuntu and self-sufficiency. Ultimately, this is a story about youth advocacy that culminates in a programme to teach self-help through a broad-based notion of education for living in South Africa. Magona’s proposed reparation seeks to define a new cultural nationhood through an awakened imaginary.","PeriodicalId":41471,"journal":{"name":"English Academy Review-Southern African Journal of English Studies","volume":"60 1","pages":"21 - 33"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77111531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It argues that cartoons in South Africa have served and serve a very different function from that described in influential accounts of cartoons in Cameroon, Nigeria, and Zimbabwe by Achille Mbembe, Lyombe Eko, Wendy Willems, and others. To demonstrate these key differences, the article examines how South African cartoonists covered the first stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. Mbembe’s influential account of postcolonial uses of cartoon humour suggests a strongly ambivalent consequence of the portrayal of the “Autocrat” in power, as both attacking him and reinforcing his all-encompassing role. South African cartoonists, however, produced a far more nuanced view of the South African president, Cyril Ramaphosa, during the crisis. Many cartoons showed the limits on his power and portrayed him as a moderating force caught between opposing forces and factions. The article analyses the causes for and consequences of this very different portrayal of the South African president.","PeriodicalId":41471,"journal":{"name":"English Academy Review-Southern African Journal of English Studies","volume":"24 1","pages":"63 - 82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90700499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Another is the effect of digital technology on the production, dissemination, and consumption of literary forms. While pioneer texts tend to engage in much space-clearing to assert the uniqueness of their projects, Shola Adenekan’s African Literature in the Digital Age, the first book-length study of African literature’s relationship with new media, is motivated as much by the impulse to trace continuities with older literary practices as it is by the desire to foreground the newness of digital literature. The former is done by key concepts running through the book. In addition to the idea of networks, the book emphasises orature as an important connecting thread. Literary works in the digital age, the author argues, are more vocal about class and sexual identities because of their capacity to evade censorship by government and publishing infrastructures.","PeriodicalId":41471,"journal":{"name":"English Academy Review-Southern African Journal of English Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"108 - 111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74441379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
