| dc.description.abstract | In 1957 newly independent Ghana under the leadership of Kwane Nkrumah — acknowledged
as, „Osagyefo” — „the Redeemer” —, adopts a socialistic system with limited
success. Ultimately, Ghana descends into a dictatorial state. Later, debutant novelist Ayi
Kwei Armah publishes The Beautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born (1968), a politically-engaged
novel in which corruption and moral decay are ubiquitously depicted. This paper presents
the kinds and styles of criticism Armah uses to present doubt and scepticism about
life in a newly independent post-colonial Ghana. | pl_PL |
