Question

Growth and development of commonwealth literature

Answer 1

Answer:

Where the literature at the broadest level is concerned, there was still a body of writing known as Commonwealth Literature in 1970. During the previous 20 years or so outstanding writers had emerged to make an impact on world literature from countries that were former colonies in the British Empire.

Answer 2

The recent rediscovery of a collection of short stories by Commonwealth writers first published in 1971 has given rise to many pertinent thoughts about the literature and the significance of the selection highlighted at that time. What was and is the state of British and Commonwealth writing? Those pieces of short fiction represent a meaningful sample of that historical time period and allow a useful comparison with where it has gone since then.
