Ethno-Patriotism and the Shona Novel: The Case of Mutswairo’s Feso

Evans Mandova and Wellington Wasosa

International Journal of Asian Social Science, 2012, vol. 2, issue 11, 1940-1946

Abstract: The paper analyses Mutswairo’s understanding and depiction of patriotic culture. The ideas the writer generates on patriotic culture are examined in the context of Africa’s struggles for political and economic emancipation. The paper is therefore an investigation of the relevance of the ideas that the writer propagates on Africa’s total political and economic liberation. The paper argues that the ideas that the writer generates on patriotic culture are important in articulating Africa’s challenges in the contemporary dispensation. However, the research contends that his ethno-centric approach is retrogressive to national liberation.
