The Ideological Leanings of Contemporary Nigerian Female Playwrights by Amajama Patrick PDF Summary

Book Description: The Ideological Leanings of Contemporary Nigerian Female Playwrights attempts an investigation into the plays of Nigerian women, with specific interest in ADAUGO and NNEORA: AN AFRICAN DOLL'S HOUSE by Osita Ezenwanebe and Tracie Utoh-Ezeajugh respectively, in order to unearth the ideologies in these plays. This was achieved through a critical analysis of the two plays as primary data while referencing the literary contributions of other critics and writers. The unique techniques of the playwrights' dramaturgy help to position the plays in proper perspective as feminist narratives, with sociological undertones. At the end of the book, it is discovered that women do not yet have complete economic and social freedom, a condition which stifles their growth and contribution to society. Many Nigerian societies still insist on social role differentiation which deprives women from maximizing their potentialities and contribution to society. Women have unique strengths and virtues which enable them sustain the family and society in times of uncertainties. The book concludes that the predominant ideology in ADAUGO is Womanism, while NNEORA is a blend of Motherism and Nego-feminism.
