Short story

	Ezekiel Mphahlele Criticism
		The advent of Ezekiel Mphahlele's first book, Down Second Avenue (1959), at the same moment that West African writing was beginning to assert itself, was a challenge to the understanding both of Western readers and of African readers themselves.
		Chinua Achebe and Ezekiel Mphahlele in various publications have addressed themselves to questions regarding the role of the African writer and his art.
		For Mphahlele, the recalled nightmare of his early adult years in South Africa is synthesized in the image of the South African land scarred with terror….

	Ezekiel Mphahlele Biography \| Encyclopedia of World Biography
		Ezekiel Mphahlele (born 1919) is an acknowledged scholar on African literature.
		Mphahlele's transition from life in the slums of South Africa to life as one of Africa's foremost writers was an odyssey of struggle both intellectually and politically.
		Mphahlele himself has agreed with this assessment, for after being officially silenced by the government of his homeland and living in self-imposed exile for twenty years, Mphahlele returned to South Africa in 1977.

		In 1957 Mphahlele, a professor of English denied employment, left his native South Africa for an exile that was to last 20 years.
		Poignant and eloquently political, Mphahlele's work is populated by a spectrum of citizens, ranging from a white Afrikaner who becomes aware of the individuality and humanity of his fl servant in the story "The Living and the Dead," to village women on market day.
		Stereotyped by a racist regime as simple and imperceptive, Mphahlele's folk are in fact as complex and fragile, bewildered and graceful as any of their white oppressors.

	Untitled Document
		Mphahlele, in his book of 1962, The African Image, which was a cocatenation of somewhat two incompatible projects, the delineation of the intellectual contours of a fl intellectual culture and the tracing of the logic and validity of fl images in white writing, gives prominence to these two philosophies of consciousness.
		Clearly, as is evident in The African Image, Mphahlele was to draw the principal lesson from the ideologies of African nationalism and Pan-Africanism that the fundamental task of the African woman and man of letters at that particular historical moment was to establish the essential cultural unity of the fl world.
		Mphahlele's intervention within Black Orpheus was to attempt to shift the point of focus away from the fl Latin countries to the Anglo-Saxon countries.

	Mphahlele, Es'kia (Ezekiel) - Profiles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		MPHAHLELE, Es'kia (Ezekiel) (1919-), South African novelist, short-story writer, and critic, was born in Pretoria.
		Mphahlele's wanderings over three continents figure his life-long search for a personal, intellectual, and cultural identity and its concomitant, the definition of a fl aesthetic.
		Mphahlele achieved notoriety with his criticism of negritude, which he argued failed to address the political needs of the African people and dismissed their revolutionary potential, thereby expressing a viewpoint shared by other African writers in English, including Wole Soyinka and Christopher Okigbo.

	Jonathan's Paper
		Mphahlele justified his return as one who was unable to no longer function as an exile.
		Mphahlele was warned by friends not to return and that to do so would merely play into the hands of the government.
		Mphahlele's return to South Africa and subsequent employment as an Inspector of Schools and then teaching in a predominantly white school created for him a new sense of exile and spiritual alienation, this time within his own country.

		But although it's hard for people to accept austerity measures "when they see leaders driving around in Mercedeses," Ouattara said, Africans today "are demanding more accountability" from their rulers, giving him hope that the continent is moving in the right direction.
		Even the teaching of literature takes on a visceral urgency in Africa, as Dr. Robert Lucid, emeritus professor of English, indicated when he talked about the South African writer and then-exile Dr. Ezekiel Mphahlele, professor of English at Penn from 1974-77 and again from 1984-85.
		When they arrived at Penn and found that Mphahlele was on the faculty, they insisted that their return home be delayed in order to meet with him.
