These include, among others, narratological elements of literature, language usage, poetry analysis, and song lyrics. Each chapter presents findings that are particular to the authors' own research. This makes the collection a valuable source of knowledge penned in a diversity of writing styles across different literary genres. A noteworthy aspect of the work is that it combines both English and isiZulu material. Seventy per cent of the chapters are written in English and thirty percent in isiZulu. This is in a bid to encourage research presentations in indigenous languages. Also of interest is that the work covers traditional or less common forms such as folklore and essays. The scarcity of published books that discuss issues or aspects of indigenous African language literatures is what prompted the publication of this collection." -- $c Back cover. 546 $a Text in English and Zulu. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 650 0 $a South African literature $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a African literature $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Authors, South African. 650 0 $a Zulu language. 650 7 $a African literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799832 650 7 $a Authors, South African. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00822346 650 7 $a South African literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01127187 650 7 $a Zulu language. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01184918 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 700 1 $a Sibiya, E.
