"This seminal work presents important reflections, against the backdrop of African literature, on the construction of the identity of Africans on the continent and diaspora after the end of colonialist oppression. Despite the expulsion of the colonizers, their languages still guide the production of this intellectuality that, using the concept of mobility, explores the challenges that this neocolonial world poses to us so that we do not uncritically assume the European identity." -- Ricardo Matheus Benedicto, Professor, University of International Integration of Afro-Brazilian Lusophony, Brazil "The Dynamics of Mobility in African Languages and Literatures' represents a landmark contribution to the field of African linguistic and literary studies. This book not only expands our understanding of the intricate relationships between language, culture, and mobility in African contexts, but also significantly enriches the scholarly repository on African languages and literatures. By exploring the complex dynamics of language contact, shift, and evolution, this book sheds new light on the adaptive resilience of African languages and the creative ingenuity of their speakers. A must-read for scholars and researchers seeking to deepen their understanding of African languages, literatures, and cultures in an increasingly globalized world." -- Professor Tom Olali, University of Nairobi, Kenya.
