Описание: This is the fourth volume in the author's 'ABC of Life' series, with wide-ranging free-wheeling comments on various matters under the sun, appearing in certain social media and other publications - and now, with many more previously unpublished essays - through which he continues to share his acquired knowledge, ideas, reminiscences, opinions, whimsies, guidance (when sought ) and an occasional jest or two, freely and frankly - all with a view to inform and entertain his readers, hopefully leaving them some residue of value.The theme of this book, 'Dare to be Yourself in Life', covers his generally serious comments and occasionally whimsical explanations of author's experiences in his 87-year old life in four lands. The title and cover essays describe author's journey of discovery of learning to stand on his own feet and be 'self-driven' under unusual circumstances, and most of the time managing to climb the hills he set himself to conquer. Academics and life lesson seekers may find his short and long responses to various concerns, including his favourite questions 'Why?' and 'Why not?', quite worthwhile.

Описание:
Writing Namibia: Literature in Transition is a cornucopia of extraordinary and fascinating material which will be a rich resource for students, teachers and readers interested in Namibia. The text is wide ranging, defining literature in its broadest terms. In its multifaceted approach, the book covers many genres traditionally outside academic literary discourse and debate. The 22 chapters cover literature of all categories in Namibia since independence: written and performance poetry, praise poetry, Oshiwambo orature, drama, novels, autobiography, women's writing, subaltern studies, literature in German, Ju-'hoansi and Otjiherero, children's literature, Afrikaans fiction, story-telling through film, publishing, and the interface between literature and society. The inclusive approach is the book's strength as it allows a wide range of subjects to be addressed, including those around gender, race and orature which have been conventionally silenced.
