The interplay of verbal cinematic, balletic and pantomimic manifestations in isiZulu literary narratives

However, discourse, which is how the story is narrated, is frequently neglected. Therefore, the paucity of studies on the manifestation or substance of expression makes verbal cinematic and balletic pantomimic the under-researched theatrical artefacts of narrative discourse in isiZulu…

Women’s agency and re-alignment of the cultural tradition of ukungena or ukungenwa in Nelisiwe Zulu’s play, Isiko Nelungelo

This is a religious offering, inviting the ancestors of the wedded couple to bless the union. Ilobolo, in the space of t…
