Wole Soyinka
① Wole Soyinka, who was born in 1934, is a Nigerian (尼日利亚) writer, poet and playwright. Many regard him as Africa’ s most distinguished playwright. He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1986, the first African writer to win this honor.
② Soyinka has played an active role in Nigeria’ s political history. In 1967, during the Civil War in Nigeria, he was arrested by the Federal Government and put in solitary confinement for attempting to broker(作为中间人来安排) a peace between the warring parties. While in prison he wrote poetry which was published in a collection. He was released two years later after international attention was drawn to his imprisonment. His experiences in prison are recounted in a book.
③ He is an outspoken critic of many Nigerian administrations, and of political tyrannies (暴君) worldwide, including the Mugabe regime(政府) in Zimbabwe. Much of his writing has been concerned with "the oppressive boot and the irrelevance of the color of the foot that wears it".
④ 1986 was his most glorious year and occurred during the reigns of several violent and repressive African regimes. The Swedish Academy awarded him the Nobel Prize for Literature as a writer "who in a wide cultural perspective and with poetic overtones fashions the drama of existence". The foremost Nigerian dramatist became the first African Nobel laureate, enshrined(被铭记) forever in the history of world literature. His Nobel Lecture was devoted to South African freedom-fighter Nelson Mandela. Soyinka’ s acceptance speech criticized apartheid and the politics of racial segregation imposed on the population by the Nationalist South African government.
⑤ That year brought him another literary award—the Agip Prize for Literature—and he was awarded a Nigerian national decoration; Commander of the Federal Republic.
