Описание
This book examines the inevitable relationship between fiction and history in Nadine Gordimer's novels.The argument of this book is corroborated by the theories of Hayden White whose works equate history and fiction.White believes that a historical, text like a literary text is determined by literary criteria rather than by reference to history.The book takes each novel of Nadine Gordimer as a metaphoric presentation of the South African context,interpreted by an anti-colonial white writer.In her meta-historical fiction,Gordimer targets apartheid's imposed codes,decodes and re-codes them based on her ideological stance.
