African Poetry Digital Portal
The African Poetry Digital Portal is a new and evolving resource for the study of the history of African poetry providing access to biographical information, artifacts, news, video recording, images and documents related to African poetry from antiquity to the present. It will also feature specially curated digital projects on various aspects of African poetry.
The first two sections of the portal—The Index of Contemporary African Poets and The African Poets and Poetry in the News have been developed with the support of the Ford Foundation and the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln.
