This book focuses on his development as a dramatist and his contribution to world drama as a postcolonial African writer whose major preoccupation has been to question the colonial and postcolonial issues of identity in theatre, literature and performance. The volume explores how Ã'sÃ3fisan exploits his Yorùbà heritage in his drama and the performances of his plays by reading new meanings into popular mythology, and by re-writing history to comment on contemporary social and political issues. Ã'sÃ3fisan has often introduced new motifs and narratives to energise dramatic performances in Nigeria and globally, and this text discusses developments in his theatre practices in the context of changing cultural trends.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sola Adeyemi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1527536378\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781527536371\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge Scholars Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.70w x 0.80d","brand":"Sola Adeyemi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48518813581567,"sku":"9781527536371","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_281c48d7-59c4-4efd-a9fd-53dfeae7ff02.jpg?v=1778735747","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/vision-of-change-in-african-sola-adeyemi-9781527536371","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
