Wole Soyinka
S eudónimo de Akinwande Oluwole Soyinka, dramaturgo, poeta, novelista y conferenciante nigeriano, galardonado con el Premio Nobel de Literatura. Nació en Abeokuta y estudió en la Universidad nigeriana de Ibadan y en la Universidad de Leeds, en el Reino Unido. Tras regresar a Nigeria fundó el grupo de teatro Masks, en 1960, y produjo sus propias obras además de otras de dramaturgos africanos. Durante la Guerra Civil nigeriana fue detenido por el gobierno y encarcelado en régimen de aislamiento de 1967 a 1969. En 1986 se convirtió en el primer escritor africano y el primer escritor negro galardonado con el Premio Nobel de Literatura. Su obra, escrita fundamentalmente en inglés, se inspira en los mitos y en las tradiciones tribales, si bien emplea formas occidentales. También utiliza los recursos del flashback, el simbolismo y una complicada estructura de la trama para enriquecer su estilo dramático. Entre sus obras más conocidas figuran La danza del bosque (1960), que celebra la independencia de Nigeria; El hombre muerto (1965), escrito durante los años que pasó en prisión; y

Introduction
Biography The first African to win the Nobel Prize in Literature (in 1986), Wole Soyinka has established himself as one of the most compelling literary forces on the continent. Born in Abeokuta, Nigeria, in 1934, he is often regarded as a universal man: poet, playwright, novelist, critic, lecturer, teacher, actor, translator, politician, and publisher. Soyinka's writing "blends African with European cultural traditions, the high seriousness of modernist elite literature, and the topicality of African popular theater." His early poetry, which can be found in one of the first issues of Black Orpheus and in A Shuttle in the Crypt (1971), resulted from his imprisonment during the Nigerian Civil War. His powerful prison diary, The Man Died (1972) was published after his release. Soyinka is actively committed to social justice and he has been an outspoken, daring public figure deeply engaged in the main political issues of his country and Africa, and he has become a symbol for humane values throughout the continent. Soyinka's hallmark is his dramatic work: "His plays are shaped by myth and imagery and the narratives move back and forth in time. The events are powerful, the language filled with puns and witty wordplay, references, and allusions. Soyinka has an excellent sense of dramatic rhythm and visual theater." See

Wole Soyinka
on the rot in Nigeria
The Nobel laureate, charged with treason in his home country, pours scorn on his accusers
W HEN I wrote in my latest book, The Open Sore of the Continent , that "the judicial murder of the Ogoni nine and the continued decimation of Ogoni people was the first Nigerian experimentation with ethnic cleansing, authorised and sustained by the Nigerian despot General Sani Abacha", some critics in foreign ministries described this as the language of an activist given to dramatising his opponents' action. The standard charge is "concealment to treason". The chairman of the Campaign for Democracy is already among the victims of this madness, and the two ex-military rulers of Nigeria were also jailed for "levying war against the Federal Republic of Nigeria". Countless others have been held without being charged for the crime of "association" with the so-called coup plotters. Yet none of this appears to be a sufficient signal to the world. Now that Abacha has prepared a list of 14 people, myself included, for a charge of "levying war against the Federal Republic of Nigeria by conspiring with others to explode bombs" and "causing explosion in several parts of Nigeria", perhaps some will see why Ogoniland is only the model for the actualisation of a totalitarian onslaught on politically sophisticated sections of the Nigerian polity which have dared expose and confront the power obsession of a minuscule but obdurate hegemony.

Nigeria can be explained in terms of the elephant and the ten blind men of Hindustan. The men had heard incredible stories about the Proboscidean and its enormous size. But nothing about its shape. In their curiosity, they groped their way to the animal kingdom. There, each touched and felt the large mammal. But as they touched different parts of it, they left with diverse impressions. An argument later ensued among them about the exact shape and size of the elephant. One emphasized its thick skin. Another having touched the ears said the animal was like a big fan, and yet to another, who touched the tusk, the animal was nothing but a long trunk. In their eyes, there was not one who had a picture similar to another. Why their views were so differring could be anybody's guess! But there is a practical sense in which men with functional sight organs will never see similar things, even when confronted with the same image.

"Books and all forms of writing have always been objects of terror to those who seek to suppress the truth."Wole Soyinka, The Man Died: The Prison Notes of Wole Soyinka I n November 1994, a crescendo of dangerous and dramatic events indicated that it was finally time for Wole Soyinka to flee his native Nigeria. The totalitarian regime in power had confiscated his passport, and nearly two hundred armed police recently had prevented the launching of a new book about the winner of the 1986 Nobel Prize for Literature. Surveillance of the author intensified, and anyone who dared sell his work or biographical materials about him was being persecuted by the authorities. Only a few days before Soyinka would slip out of the country, the Nigerian Union of Journalists received a letter from the police warning that if his name were not removed from a list of speakers at an upcoming conference, the event would be canceled. In his most recent book

A nd of those imperatives that challenge our being, our presence, and humane definition at this time, none can be considered more pervasive than the end of racism, the eradication of human inequality, and the dismantling of all their structures. The Prize is the consequent enthronement of its complement: universal suffrage and peace. From Wole Soyinka's Nobel lecture, delivered December 8, 1986. Two days later, just after receiving the Nobel Prize for Literature from King Carl Gustaf of Sweden, Soyinka symbolically presented the award to the audience.

    One of the world's most eminent playwrights is considering turning down all British invitations because he now routinely expects obstruction and delay at immigration. Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka, who studied in Leeds and has a son working as a doctor in London, said that he has suffered "unbelievable questions and degrading treatment" at airports and the Channel tunnel terminus. A sought-after speaker at theatres and arts conferences, Soyinka said he has been driven to consider turning down all British invitations after failing to get any explanation from the Home Office.

    Section:
    FOCUS When Wole Soyinka, the 52-year-old Nigerian writer who was recently awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature, was jailed and later exiled for his involvement with Biafran secessionists in the 1960s, the result was a powerful nonfiction book, "The Man Died." His 20 books in print include poetry, plays, his memoir, "Ake: The Years of Childhood," and several novels. The Nobel announcement characterized him thus: "He has his roots in the Yoruba people's myths, rites and cultural patterns, which in their turn have historical links to the Mediterranean region. Through his education in his native land and in Europe he has also acquired deep familiarity with Western culture. His collection of essays, 'Myth, Literature and the African World' make for clarifying and enriching reading." Some excerpts from his works: ``The sprawling, undulating terrain is all of Ake. More than mere loyalty to the parsonage gave birth to a puzzle, and a resentment, that God should choose to look down on his own pious station, the parsonage compound, from the profane heights of Itoko. . . .
