    ABSTRACT

    The study was carried out to investigate the Socio-Political Concepts in Village Voices and the Eye of the Earth by Niyi Osundare. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out to examine the socio-political themes employed by Niyi Osundare in Village Voices and the Eye of the Earth and ensure that there is an egalitarian society i.e. bridging the gap between the haves and the have not in society. Investigation revealed that Niyi Osundare’s poetic talent no doubt was influenced by the socio-political problems of Africa. It is pertinent to make that Africa writers and critics have had to discuss the relative idea of commitment. Primary data were collected from the primary source which questionnaire was used as an instrument of data collection while secondary data were sources from textbooks, journals, newspapers and the internet were employed. This study is being embarked upon, because we could see Niyi Osundare as a poet who belongs to the new poetic revolution whose basic concern is the regeneration and reconstruction of the societal values. Therefore, this topic has been chosen to expose the societal ills portrayed by the poet. However, these texts Village Voices and The Eye of the Earth have been selected because they have socio-political issues raised in them. Based on the findings, it has been discovered that there is no work of art written in vacuum. They are meant to reform, transform, and revolutionize the society. In another dimension, it has been discovered that revolutionary writers are readily identified with the masses most especially the unprivileged. The study showed that art is inevitable in any human society. This work therefore portrayed Niyi Osundare a poet that used poetry to advocate for the masses.

    CHAPTER ONE

    1.1 Introduction

    Niyi Osundare is a renowned international poet, prolific dramatist, media columnist and social critic that gears his literary works towards social revolution and creative impulse. His African cultural life with traditional idioms, proverbs, and songs has enriched his creative output for over two decades. Niyi Osundare is one of the fecund poets that have written in Africa today. A Nigerian, of Yoruba extraction, his poetry is richly colored by common expressions of traditional life which reflects the worldview of his people. Besides, his poetry is an accessible because in it he assumes the voice of the unlettered peasants and villagers who speak plain without feigning sophistication. In fact, most of Osundare’s poetry dwells on the impoverishment and decay of the rural communities. His fourth collection of poetry, The Eye of the Earth is entirely devoted to Mother-Earth and other forms of physical nation.
