About: As with African Literature: An Anthology edited by Olaniyan and Quayson, the concern here is largely with the modern and postcolonial, and in that context, it is the case that African literature has assimilated western criticism and theory - whether Leavisian, New Critical, poststructuralist, feminist, deconstructive, psychoanalytic, post-colonial, postmodern - in forms unique to its own provenance and cultural history.
