Developing learner’s language competence through IsiZulu literary and non-literary text analysisMsweli, Zanele Priscilla January 2012 (has links)
Submitted to the Faculty of Arts in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of African Languages at the University of Zululand, South Africa, 2012. / This study explores developing learner‟s language competence through literary and
non-literary texts. The topic of the study: “Developing learner‟s language competence
through literary and non-literary analysis is introduced. It is maintained that
language educators‟ focus is on analyzing literary texts: poetry, novel, drama,
folklore/folktale, short story and essay but not on designing their own texts. The
learners should be encouraged to produce their own authentic texts.
It is also assumed that non-literary texts are not analysed or developed. There is lack
of emphasis on language: sentence construction, for when learners produce their own
texts they should know how to construct a sentence. It is also maintained that
language usage should also be emphasized because texts are assumed to have figures
of speech, idiomatic expressions and proverbs.
Learners should be encouraged to create their own texts and present them. Therefore
the language competence through isiZulu literary and non-literary texts analysis
should be developed.
This discussion includes ways learners can develop their language competence
through literary and non-literary texts analysis and the ways the language educators
can teach learners language competence through literary and non-literary texts
analysis. The research analyses different types of isiZulu literary texts to
show how language competence can be developed through literary texts analysis.
The novel, “Insila KaShaka,” poetry, short story, “Intando Kamufi,” essay,
“Izifungo,” folktales and the drama, “Kudela Owaziyo” are analysed.

The thesis elaborates upon a question which literary techniques Jeanette Winterson applies in her novels The Passion and Written on the Body to portray queer body. The thesis conceptualizes queer body as crystallizing in discontinuous relationships between the categories of sex, gender identity and compulsory heterosexuality within Butlerian heterosexual matrix. The possibility of discontinuous relationships between them - gender disorder - is realised in the act of beholding queer body. Conceptualization of queer body embedded within the Butlerian heterosexual matrix has not been elaborated upon in the full scope of Jeanette Winterson's work. Literary criticism deals with the body in Written on the Body, not, however, in the context of Butlerian model of heterosexual matrix. Articulation of queer body is realized by deconstructive techniques of Jeanette Winterson's writing. These are comprised in the motifs of mirroring in The Passion and palimpsest in Written on the Body. Ontological anxiety in The Passion brings queer body. Magic realism in the novel gives queer body magical skills which make gender disorder possible. Queer body is abject in the novel. In Written on the Body genderless narrator describes queer body as his/her body. It is an adorable and morbid body. The queer body in this novel...
