Alt 1-4: African Literature Today
Eldred Jones
The re-issue of archival volumes ALT 1 to ALT 14 makes the complete series available and provides the historical perspective of these early contributions to the literature and its criticism.
Publisher Marketing: The intention of the African Literature Today series [ALT] was, and still is, to encourage African writing in any language, whether of fiction, poetry or plays, and also to encourage its criticism. The critic's role, according to Eldred Durosimi Jones in his 1968 Introduction to ALT 1, is to make the work accessible to a wider readership and to help establish literary standards for African literature: "The more permissive the publisher's policy is, the more necessary becomes the function of the critic." This book combines the first 4 volumes in the series, which had been published as single volumes between 1968 and 1970, then combined into one volume in 1972. It includes Bernth Lindfors' essay on 'The palm wine with which Achebe's words are eaten', plus early reviews of Flora Nwapa's Efuru and Ngugi's A Grain of Wheat.
Contributor Bio: Jones, Eldred Durosimi Jones is professor of English at Fourah Bay College, University of Sierra Leone.
