The rich and multifarious range of film and literature emanating from Africa and the diaspora provides a fascinating lens through which we can understand the complex consequences of gendered violence on the lives of women, children and minorities. Contributors to this volume examine the many ways in which gendered violence mirrors, expresses, projects and articulates the larger phenomenon of human rights violations in Africa and the African diaspora and how, in turn, the discourse of human rights informs the ways in which we articulate, interrogate, conceptualise and interpret gendered violence in literature and film. The book also shines a light on the linguistic contradictions and ambiguities in the articulation of gendered violence in private spaces and war. This book will be essential reading for scholars, critics, feminists, teachers and students seeking solid grounding in exploring gendered violence and human rights in theory and practice."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Literature $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a African literature $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Motion pictures, African $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Motion pictures $z Africa. 650 0 $a Human rights in literature. 650 0 $a Human rights in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Violence in literature. 650 0 $a Violence in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination in literature. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination in motion pictures. 650 7 $a African literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799832 650 7 $a Human rights in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963350 650 7 $a Human rights in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01903533 650 7 $a Literature $x Black authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999963 650 7 $a Motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027285 650 7 $a Motion pictures, African. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027477 650 7 $a Sex discrimination in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114431 650 7 $a Sex discrimination in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114436 650 7 $a Violence in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01167282 650 7 $a Violence in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01167293 651 7 $a Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239509 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Electronic version: $t Gendered violence and human rights in Black world literature and film. $d London ; New York : Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2021 $w (OCoLC)1236250678 $z 9781000367775 700 1 $a Nkealah, Naomi, $e editor. 700 1 $a Nnaemeka, Obioma, $d 1948- $e editor. 700 1 $a Shoneyin, Titilola Alexandrah, $e author. 830 0 $a Routledge contemporary Africa series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117030334.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=216B03D078F711ECAF30597D2FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
