101	Discovering Zimbabwean Digital Literature : An Exploratory Study of the Typologies and Properties of Online Audiences of Ephemeral Literature / An Investigation Into Digital Ephemeral Literature in Southern Africa Dube, Earl January 2023 (has links) Cathrine Phiri's novel ‘Never Mine’ on Facebook, highlights the liberating potential of online literary engagement, particularly for female readers, amid creative restrictions in Zimbabwe. Utilising both the Afrocentric and Communicative Figuration concepts, the study examines how digital ephemeral literature fosters connection and conversation. It delves into audience typologies, alignment with community ideals, complex social structures and cultural behaviour. Methodologically, this study takes on a deductive approach and makes use of the theoretical framework that comprises the Afrocentric model and the Communicative Figuration model. African literary circles have in the past embraced the online medium, making digital literary content highly successful, despite its realised (or otherwise perceived) ephemerality. The digital landscape has not only facilitated connections between African writers and their readers but has also enriched the literary landscape through the proliferation of new literary expressions. The data, collected from Facebook interactions in the form of screenshots from user comments, replies and reactions sheds light onto this phenomenon. Grounded in a synthesis of literary studies and digital media studies, this study shows how audience members are seen to readily engage in conversations that are deemed central to African cultural and social being. Never Mine shows that there is a large audience for online ephemeral literature and that this audience is largely active and dynamic in nature, from the observed user comments and reactions. The behaviour of the African audience is therefore intricately connected to the complex interplay of cultural, digital, and political elements that are unique to the region. Thus, grasping these dynamics is essential to comprehend the distinctive trends in online engagement and information consumption within the African context. Different platforms are therefore seen to connect readers to new writing on the continent – writing that more accurately reflects their own lived realities – and in innovative ways.

103	Graphic revolt! : Scandinavian artists' workshops, 1968-1975 : Røde Mor, Folkets Ateljé and GRAS Glomm, Anna Sandaker January 2012 (has links) This thesis examines the relationship between the three artists' workshops Røde Mor (Red Mother), Folkets Ateljé (The People's Studio) and GRAS, who worked between 1968 and 1975 in Denmark, Sweden and Norway. Røde Mor was from the outset an articulated Communist graphic workshop loosely organised around collective exhibitions. It developed into a highly productive and professionalised group of artists that made posters by commission for political and social movements. Its artists developed a familiar and popular artistic language characterised by imaginative realism and socialist imagery. Folkets Ateljé, which has never been studied before, was a close knit underground group which created quick and immediate responses to concurrent political issues. This group was founded on the example of Atelier Populaire in France and is strongly related to its practices. Within this comparative study it is the group that comes closest to collective practises around 1968 outside Scandinavia, namely the democratic assembly. The silkscreen workshop GRAS stemmed from the idea of economic and artistic freedom, although socially motivated and politically involved, the group never implemented any doctrine for participation. The aim of this transnational study is to reveal common denominators to the three groups' poster art as it was produced in connection with a Scandinavian experience of 1968. By ‘1968' it is meant the period from the late 1960s till the end of the 1970s. It examines the socio-political conditions under which the groups flourished and shows how these groups operated in conjunction with the political environment of 1968. The thesis explores the relationship between political movements and the collective art making process as it appeared in Scandinavia. To present a comprehensible picture of the impact of 1968 on these groups, their artworks, manifestos, and activities outside of the collective space have been discussed. The argument has presented itself that even though these groups had very similar ideological stances, their posters and techniques differ. This has impacted the artists involved to different degrees, yet made it possible to express the same political goals. It is suggested to be linked with the Scandinavian social democracies and common experience of the radicalisation that took place mostly in the aftermath of 1968 proper. By comparing these three groups' it has been uncovered that even with the same socio-political circumstances and ideological stance divergent styles did develop to embrace these issue. 700
