English and the African Writer Question

 

I’m working on a english question and need a sample draft to help me understand better.

Prompt:

In a thesis-driven, highly analytical essay, critique Ngugi’s assertion that African authors—to craft “authentically” African literature—must write in an African language.

Considerations:

Do you agree with Ngugi? What are some of the limitations of his suggestion that problematize his definition of African literature? Finally, although Ngugi concerns himself with African literature in a post-colonial context, because his ideas are rooted in a more general theory of language, his assertions have unexpected implications for all uses of language, even day-to-day, nonliterary ones. What are some of these implications? How can we apply what we’ve learned from Ngugi in our own lives? Explain.

Requirements:

4-page minimum length

12 pt. Times New Roman font

MLA style throughout, including complete and correct cited page

HEAVY ANALYSIS (only minimal summary)

At least one scholarly, outside source
