    The orality - literacy debate with special reference to selected work of S.E.K. Mqhayi
    (University of the Western Cape, 2004) Mpolweni, Nosisi Lynette; Neethling, S.J; Dept. of Xhosa; Faculty of Arts
    The focus of this thesis is on Xhosa oral and written poetry. The discussion in the thesis is based on the information from existing literature, the responses from the questionnaires and the interviews with some Xhosa iimbongi (person who sings praises) who have reflected on their personal experiences. In addition to this, S.E.K. Mqhayi is at the centre of discussion because as a prominent Xhosa imbongi he features in both the oral and the written world.
