Abstract
This projeot examines Clive Wake's translation of Xala a neo-colonial
French African novel by Sembene Ousmane' (1973) focusing on the manner in
which the ideological content of the novel is approached and dealt with in
translation. A comparison of passages in the source text chosen on the
basis of their ideological contribution to the novel with the corresponding
passages in this large text, forms the basis of the study. (Abbreviation abstract)
