Professor Ngugi and Writing as Social Communication

By writing as a social exchange in professor Ngugi and post-colonial Africa literature course, by using reading and writing as a main form of social communication, civilization points out that their own values ​​are truly forgotten freely Did. It is a part of the reality of important life. I always believe that I am a freshman with blind faith and passion for literature and that the written words will change my life and change the possibilities of identity and national identity.

I attended the African literature class after the colony in the first year of Yale University. At that time, Professor Ngugi wa Thiong'o succeeded in attracting me to studying African literature. When civilization adopts reading and writing as the main form of social interaction, he insists that it forgets its own value. These values ​​are no longer necessary to be part of a meaningful reality of life. I was soon fascinated with the idea that written words change my life, affect my identity, and even the possibility of forming a national consciousness.

Professor Ngugi's claim forced me to think in a completely new way; I eventually faced the concept of literature, not as a promoter of significant change, but for potential stagnation and social stagnation As a tool. I began to question the basic assumptions I had. How do "literature" leave written pages, personal and social life? What is the meaning of the text written in a society without historical structure or linear structure?

I discuss the experiments and issues in Ngugi Wa Thiong'o indigenous linguistic writings. Anxiety has been incorporated in his essay collection "Decolonization of the Mind: Language Politics in African Literature". Of course, Achebe is eagerly countering his own article "Political scholars and linguists in African literature". Egara Kabaji has a good article on N gugi method here. Mr. Kabazi: I proposed a new paradigm shift on language issues. Rather than indulging in colonial experiences, we need to ask ourselves what the needs of African people are. We have to write down our experience in Africa. We need to write to celebrate our diversity so that we can appreciate ourselves and other people we share with Africa. I advocate so-called "critical reconstructionism".
