Joan Hambidge

**Joan Helene Hambidge** (alizaliwa Aliwal North, Afrika Kusini, 11 Septemba 1956) ni mshairi mahiri wa Kiafrikana na msomi wa nadharia ya fasihi. Yeye anajulikana kama mkosoaji na ni maarufu kwa mtindo wake wa "out-of-the-closet". Michango yake ya kinadharia inahusu hasa *Roland Barthes*, *deconstruction*, *postmodernism*, *psychoanalysis* and metaphysics.

## Wasifu
Hambidge alisoma vyuo vikuu vya *Stellenbosch* na *Pretoria*. Alitunukiwa tuzo ya heshima ya udaktari André P. Brink katika Chuo kikuu cha Rhodes mnamo mwaka 1985. Tuzo ya pili ya udaktari aliipata chuo kikuu cha University of Cape Town, 2001.

Ingawa Hambidge anasema aligundua kipaji chake cha uandishi alipokua mdogo, na alipokuwa mkufunzi chuo kikuu cha *University of the North*, *Limpopo Province*, kipaji chake kilikua zaidi.

Alishinda tuzo ya *Eugène Marais Prize for literature* kutokana na kitabu chake cha pili cha fasihi.
*Bitterlemoene* ("Bitter Oranges"), in 1986. ("Judas kiss", 1998) and "Kladboek" (2008).
