"African Female Playwrights: A Study of Matter and Manner is a provocative collection of erudite elegance which brings together for the first time an assemblage of critical essays on African women playwrights, examining the matter and manner of their craft through the application of critical diversity and eclecticism. Though these playwrights belong to different countries, individuality and distinction of cultures hardly obliterate their efforts at communicating the feminist perspective without embellishment. This exhilarating and refreshingly innovative compendium is guaranteed to be a useful addition to the corpus of scholarship in Dramatic Theory and Criticism, as well as an indispensable resource material for feminist criticism."--Back cover.
