Rezensionen
"I have collaborated with Dike Okoro on several projects dealing with Zulu literature in particular, and African literature in general. He is one of the most promising members of the new generation of literary critics and writers to come out of African in recent years."

Lupenga Mphanda, PhD, Professor of African Languages/Literature, The Ohio State University/USA

"Dike Okoro has already established himself as an urgent and necessary literary critic and scholar of African and African Diaspora Literature. As such, Mazisi Kunene: Literature, Activism, and African Worldview will be an important contribution to the growing need for books on African poets in Africa and around the world."

Patricia Jabbeh Wesley, Author, Praise Song for My Children: New & Selected Poems

"Dr. Dike Okoro has proven himself as one of the premier scholars of African poetry. This book is timely and would constitute an important reference for future research on Mazisi Kunene and other South African poets."

Chielozona Eze, PhD, Bernard J. Brommel Distinguished Research Professor, NEIU & Extraordinary Professor of English at Stellenbosch University, South Africa
