| dc.description.abstract | The following piece of research falls with African literary studies. It ventures to study the issue of the double representation of the Black South Africans both as ‘subaltern’ and ‘resistant’ in two selected plays namely My Children! My Africa (1989) and Blood Knot (1961) by white South African playwright Athol Fugard. Within two chapters, our work discusses Fugard’s depiction of his characters as subaltern then as resistant or heroes within the Apartheid segregationist system. We rely on the theoretical grounding of Antonio Gramsci on ‘Subalternity’ and ‘Resistance’, one of the basic findings of our work is that Fugard is committed to give a faithful demonstration of the South African subaltern’s resistance through education and identity | |
