This study delves into the transformative power of cultural nationalism in Oromoo literature, examining its role in fostering collective consciousness, safeguarding collective identity, and propelling social and political change. The analysis focuses on four selected novels, Godaannisa, Yoomi Laataa? Burreen Bifa Tokko Miti, and Dibaa, employing the "Earth-Woman Symbolism" framework to explore the intertwining of man-woman and culture-nature dichotomies in strengthening cultural nationalism. The study reveals that cultural nationalism serves as a beacon for Oromoo, defining their "us" against external marginalization. It also acts as a custodian of collective identity, ensuring its transmission across generations. Cultural nationalism is embedded in character? ethical stances, their pursuit of truth and peace, and their resistance to harmful societal structures. The narratives of the selected novels are constructed on a foundation of cultural nationalism, shaping the very essence of Oromoo identity. Key emphases include constructing a cohesive collective identity, ensuring the continuity of cultural heritage, invigorating cultural resistance, and promoting societal transformation through ritual practices. Building upon these findings, the study calls for further exploration into the diverse facets of cultural nationalism in Oromoo literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
