Download or read book Oral Literary Performance in Africa written by Nduka Otiono and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-31 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delivers an admirably comprehensive and rigorous analysis of African oral literatures and performance. Gathering insights from distinguished scholars in the field, the book provides a range of contemporary interdisciplinary perspectives in the study of oral literature and its transformations in everyday life, fiction, poetry, popular culture, and postcolonial politics. Topics discussed include folklore and folklife; oral performance and masculinities; intermediated orality, modern transformations, and globalisation; orality and mass media; spoken word and imaginative writing. The book also addresses research methodologies and the thematic and theoretical trajectories of scholars of African oral literatures, looking back to the trailblazing legacies of Ruth Finnegan, Harold Scheub, and Isidore Okpewho. Ambitious in scope and incisive in its analysis, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of African literatures and oral performance as well as to general readers interested in the dynamics of cultural production.

Download or read book Metaphor in Zulu written by Eric Hermanson and published by AFRICAN SUN MeDIA. This book was released on 2006-09-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines metaphor in Zulu in the light of conceptual metaphor theory from the perspective of a Bible translator. It then considers the possibility of translating Biblical Hebrew metaphor into Zulu. Selected Hebrew metaphors in the Book of Amos are analysed according to conceptual metaphor theory and compared with the conceptual metaphor analysis of the corresponding verses in existing Zulu translations, thereby increasing the empirical basis of the theory, and showing that it is valid for the study of both Biblical Hebrew and Zulu and a useful tool for translators.

Download or read book Poceza M madzulo written by Julius Chongo and published by University of Zambia Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Julius Chongo is a household name in Zambia, a celebrated Chewa poet and raconteur, renowned for adapting and creating a popular radio drama of oral prose and poetic narratives known in Chewa or Njanga as ?Poceza M?Madzulo'. The serial ran for ten years between 1966 and 1976 and became a hit amongst both rural and urban Zambians. The stories, which mix realism and illusion, were adapted from the storytelling tradition, and the story theatre performance tradition of the Chewa and Njanja speaking peoples of Northern Mozambique, Malawi and Zambia, as an effort to keep this tradition alive. In the same spirit, the stories have been transcribed and translated into English for a new generation. Although not intended for the written medium, the stories convey much of Chongo's idiom, originality and aesthetic devices. The corpus of stories and their translations are thus a valuable contribution to an understanding of Zambian oral literature in indigenous languages, and as a means of communicating these cultures. Further the work is an important effort to address the underdeveloped area of publishing in indigenous languages and literature in Zambia, a prerequisite for the nurturing of local cultural identity.
