Legacies of Departed African Women Writers: Matrix of Creativity and Power presents diverse perspectives on the invaluable contributions of ten deceased African writers from across Africa, who have paved the way for a vibrant African feminist arena. The dynamics of change gleaned from their textual and contextual concerns have undeniably set the pace for contemporary African women writers who strive to follow in the footsteps of their literary mothers and oral foremothers. Edited by Helen Chukwuma and Chioma Carol Opara, this book showcases the collective testament of immense creativity and power generated by these departed heroes: Flora Nwapa, Mariama Ba, Grace Ogot, Zulu Sofola, Bessie Head, Buchi Emecheta, Nawal El Saadawi, Assia Djebar, Yvonne Vera, and Nadine Gordimer. These chapters explore the positive impact of the celebrated writers on creative writing, theoretical formulations, and socio-cultural change. The contributors argue that these corpuses of works have illuminated creativity rooted in power, vision, and freedom.
