- Abstract:
- Abstract: This essay suggests metaphors of selfhood and techniques for remembrance as useful interpretive frameworks for engaging the particularities that characterize women writers' representation of their African political womanhood in autobiography. The hybridity of the narrators and of some techniques like orality interwoven in these texts are spaces in which African women politicians negotiate their multiple selves.
