Extrait de la couverture : "There is hardly a debate that is more controversial than the African discourse on feminism. Anti-feminist positions are widespread in Africa. ... In her book, Susan Arndt discusses and defines the nature of African feminism abd african-feminsit literatures. ... Arndt distinguishes three main currents of feminism : reformist, transformative and radical african-feminist literaures. The workability of this classification model is put to the rest, illustrated and exemplified with interpretations of selected african-feminist prose texts."
