Cultural conflict in east african literature
Abstract
This is a study of East African literature in which we
analyse the nature and consequences of European colonialism
on African institutions and personality. Operating from the
general title of 'Cultural Conflict', we identify the crucial
institutions that were employed by the colonizer in his
concerted effort to subordinate and exploit the African. It
is inevitable that anyone treating the subject of cultural
conflict should consider colonialism as the essential, unique
phenomenon in the creation of this conflict. No other factor
has had such a fundamental and prolonged impact on the life of
the people over the last century.
