Mtuze is one of the prominent writers of isiXhosa. He is a highly endowed writer who has produced books in all literature genres: drama, novel, short stories, poetry and essays. Some of his books were and are prescribed to be taught as part of the syllabus in schools and universities. He has not only produced literature books but also written books that serve as a guide to the teaching and learning of Xhosa grammar. Furthermore, he has produced a very rare book, especially amongst the Xhosa authors, an autobiography. He has written two autobiographical works. Mtuze is one of the authors who have played a major role in the upliftment of isiXhosa. The thesis looks intently at how Mtuze has influenced the public through his literary works. This has been done by a full critical analysis of his novels, to portray the main themes embodied in these works. Chapter one is the introduction. Chapter two is the author's historical background. Chapter 3 analyses the novels that tackle moral issues (UDingezweni and Umsinga). Chapter 4 explores the social novels (Indlel' ecand' intlango, Alitshoni lingaphumi and Uyese namahlandinyuka obomi) and chapter 5 evaluates his historical novel (Iingada zibuyile endle). Mtuze is influenced by different factors in his writings. These issues have been explored in the last chapter of the thesis. 2015-12-09T14:40:35Z 2015-12-09T14:40:35Z 2015 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/15720 xho application/pdf African Languages and Literatures Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
