Abstract
M.A. (African Languages)
The study looks at the socio-economic milieu, the socio-political
milieu, the socio-economic themes and the socio-political themes
in the three novels written by Sibusiso L. Nyembezi namely;
Ubudoda Abukhulelwa, Mntanami-Mntanami and Inkinsela YaseMgungundlovu.
The socio-political milieu and socio-economic milieu are viewed
from the perspective of the Marxist Literary Theories. These
theories are chosen to form the theoretical framework of this
study because they best view man in relation to his sociopolitical
circumstances and also in relation to the country's
system of economic production.
We observed that Nyembezi places his characters in real socioeconomic
and socio-political circumstances. These in turn
determine the thoughts, words, actions and fate of characters...
