Noni Jabavu’s Words and Worlds: Black British-South African Literary Pioneer
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about the black British-South African writer Nontando (Noni) Jabavu (1919-2008), whose compelling life and work deserve to be better known.
Our event features leading scholars of black feminist intellectual history Makhosazana Xaba of the University of Witwatersrand and Athambile Masola of the University of Cape Town, both in South Africa. It presents too the archival insights of Charles Fonge of the Borthwick Institute for Archives at the University of York and it is chaired by Janet Remmington of the Humanities Research Centre, also of the University of York, whose research focuses on black South Africa travel and textual cultures.
