Book Synopsis Lobola (Bridewealth) in Contemporary Southern Africa by : Lovemore Togarasei
Download or read book Lobola (Bridewealth) in Contemporary Southern Africa written by Lovemore Togarasei and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-03 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the multiple meanings and implications of lobola in Southern Africa. The payment of lobola (often controversially translated as ‘bridewealth’) is an entrenched practice in most societies in Southern Africa. Although having a long tradition, of late there have been voices questioning its relevance in contemporary times while others vehemently defend the practice. This book brings together a range of scholars from different academic disciplines, national contexts, institutions, genders, and ethnic backgrounds to debate the relevance of lobola in contemporary southern African communities for gender equality.

Download or read book Fanie Fourie's Lobola written by Nape 'a Motana and published by Pan Macmillan South africa. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fanie Fourie is a true blue boere seun with an unrepentantly macho approach to love and life in general. But his world view undergoes an abrupt reinvention when he is 'bitten by the louse and bedbug of love' and falls head-over-heels for Dimakatjo Machabaphala, a beautiful black nurse. In pursuit of true love, these lovers must steer a path through the challenging intricacies of inter-cultural negotiation and leap the hurdles of racial bigotry, tenacious former lovers, and the like, finally to emerge triumphant as traditionally united man and wife. This delightful novel is filled with naughty humor and ironic reversals of stereotype. With a deft and humorous pen, the author evokes the colliding worlds of traditional and contemporary culture in a South Africa still struggling to renegotiate roles and relationships and shake off the complexes and prejudices of the past.

Download or read book Lobola written by Sara C. Mvududu and published by Weaver Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extrait de la couverture : "The practice of paying lobola is comon in all the seven WLSA countries ... This situation highlights a common feature of all systems of marriage in these countries - the patriarchal ideology where men dominate the marriage process and control the decision-making power through the practice of lobola. This study examines the current situation of lobola in the seven WLSA countries and exposes yet another example of how a tradition which originally elevated the status of a woman has transformed into a way of disempowering her. The commercialisation of lobola has stripped it of its symbolism and reduced it to yet another way of controlling women's reproductive rights."

This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 1137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents hundreds of customs and traditions practiced in countries outside of the United States, showcasing the diversity of birth, coming-of-age, and death celebrations worldwide. From the beginning of our lives to the end, all of humanity celebrates life's milestones through traditions and unique customs. In the United States, we have specific events like baby showers, rites of passage such as Bat and Bar Mitzvahs and "sweet 16" birthday parties, and sober end-of-life traditions like obituaries and funeral services that honor those who have died. But what kinds of customs and traditions are practiced in other countries? How do people in other cultures welcome babies, prepare to enter into adulthood, and commemorate the end of the lives of loved ones? This three-volume encyclopedia covers more than 300 birth, life, and death customs, with the books' content organized chronologically by life stage. Volume 1 focuses on birth and childhood customs, Volume 2 documents adolescent and early-adulthood customs, and Volume 3 looks at aging and death customs. The entries in the first volume examine pre-birth traditions, such as baby showers and other gift-giving events, and post-birth customs, such as naming ceremonies, child-rearing practices, and traditions performed to ward off evil or promote good health. The second volume contains information about rites of passage as children become adults, including indigenous initiations, marriage customs, and religious ceremonies. The final volume concludes with coverage on customs associated with aging and death, such as retirement celebrations, elaborate funeral processions, and the creation of fantasy coffins. The set features beautiful color inserts that illustrate examples of celebrations and ceremonies and includes an appendix of excerpts from primary documents that include legislation on government-accepted names, wedding vows, and maternity/paternity leave regulations.
