Kunene). Gandhi said his life was his message. Daniel Kunene's life is his message: civil rights activist and committed fighter against apartheid, paragon of love, dignity, knowledge, peace, passion, and the pursuit of justice; wellspring of song, poetry, fiction, and music, epic linguist, acclaimed scholar, and translator of African oral and written literatures." -Dr. Fritz Pointer (from the Foreword)

This study spotlights language as a tool of scholarly discourse in analyzing the stories created with it by one writer, C.L.S. Nyembezi, while also considering the Zulu language’s own process of self-revelation within its socio-cultural context. It is shown that Zulu has qualities not present in the English language which call particular attention to such elements as are unique to its literature. This study questions whether or not any culture has the right to claim exclusive ownership of the criteria of literary excellence.
