摘要

20世纪60年代的非洲女权运动标志着从非洲女权主义起源到其对妇女和整个社会的影响的辩论的起点。文学从一开始就被用作反映非洲妇女生活及其变迁的工具。非洲女作家将文学作为挑战和重新想象其社会和整个非洲大陆性别关系的平台。然而,问题出现了:尽管半个世纪的文学创作价值,但文学中反映的女性现实是否发生了变化?本文对Molara Ogundipe-Leslie 1985年出版的诗集《往昔岁月》和其他诗歌进行了主题研究,并将其与Warsan Shire的《教母亲如何生产》进行了比较。这两位诗人都以描绘女性面临的当前问题和她们在父权制度下的斗争而闻名。主题分析允许对变化的推断:这些诗人是在讨论同样的斗争,还是近三十年的差异带来了明显的变化?

Has Feminism Changed Women’s Realities in Africa? An Interrogation of the Poems of Ogundipe and Shire
African feminist movements of the 1960’s marked the starting point of debates from the origin of feminism in Africa to its impact on women and the society at large. Literature has from the go been used as a vehicle to reflect the life and its vicissitude on African women. African women writers have used literature as a platform to challenge and re-imagine gender relations within their societies and the continent as a whole. Yet, the question arises: despite half a century’s worth of literary production, has the reality of women, as reflected in literature, changed? This paper thematically interrogates the collection of poems by Molara Ogundipe-Leslie, Sew the Old Days and Other Poems published in 1985, in comparison to Warsan Shire’s Teaching My Mother How to Give Birth of 2011. Both poets are renowned for depicting current issues faced by women and their struggles in patriarchal systems. A thematic analysis allows for the inference of change: do these poets address the same struggles, or has almost thirty-year difference brought about discernible changes?
