| Abstract: |
Marxism is a theoretical framework of socio-economic analysis that examines class relations and societal conflict using materialistic interpretation of historical development, and a dialectical view of social transformation. Marxist criticism is inspired by the social and economic theories of Karl Marx Fredrick Engels, which originates from the mid-to-late 19th century. The study examines the popularity of Marxist school in African literature via the following objectives:
To review Marxist school of thought as a theory
To identify its position in African literature
To investigate Marxist school of thought in African literature.
The study is a qualitative research and selected African texts deployed to elucidate its data. The first section of the study reviews Marxist school of thought as a literary theory. Effort is made to explore and situate the Marxist theory as integral to African literature. The study concludes that Marxist depicts themes of class struggle, class strata and exploitation, to enlighten and champion socio-political transformation and change. |
