Dissident Authorship in Mozambique
Discover the fascinating exploration of authorship in Mozambique with "Dissident Authorship in Mozambique" by Tom Stennett, published by Oxford University Press in 2023. This groundbreaking monograph delves into the life and works of the often-overlooked Portuguese poet and painter António Quadros (1933-1994). Through an analysis of Quadros's unique literary contributions, published under three different pen names, Stennett interrogates the complexities of what it means to be an author in a post-colonial context. Engaging with the influential theories of Barthes and Foucault, this book offers readers a fresh perspective on the intersections of identity, creativity, and dissent. With 160 pages of insightful content, this hardback edition is a must-read for anyone interested in literature, authorship, and the rich cultural tapestry of Mozambique.
