Download or read book The Epic of Sumanguru Kante written by Stephen Bulman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Epic of Sumanguru Kante contains the Bamana text and English translation of griot Abdoulaye Sako’s oral narrative of the life of Sumanguru, recorded in 1997 in Koulikoro (Mali), together with explanatory notes, a scholarly introduction, and sections on the Bamana language and musical accompaniment. Sumanguru is a familiar figure within Manding epic oral traditions about ancient Mali. But while these narratives generally focus on Sunjata Keita, Sako’s oral poem is rare in according Sumanguru the central role. In so doing he includes hitherto undocumented episodes relating to Sumanguru’s life and role as the ruler of Soso, the little known state said to have flourished in the western Sudan between the fall of ancient Ghana and rise of ancient Mali.

Download or read book Standardizing Minority Languages written by Pia Lane and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Open Access version of this book, available at https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781138125124, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license. This volume addresses a crucial, yet largely unaddressed dimension of minority language standardization, namely how social actors engage with, support, negotiate, resist and even reject such processes. The focus is on social actors rather than language as a means for analysing the complexity and tensions inherent in contemporary standardization processes. By considering the perspectives and actions of people who participate in or are affected by minority language politics, the contributors aim to provide a comparative and nuanced analysis of the complexity and tensions inherent in minority language standardisation processes. Echoing Fasold (1984), this involves a shift in focus from a sociolinguistics of language to a sociolinguistics of people. The book addresses tensions that are born of the renewed or continued need to standardize ‘language’ in the early 21st century across the world. It proposes to go beyond the traditional macro/micro dichotomy by foregrounding the role of actors as they position themselves as users of standard forms of language, oral or written, across sociolinguistic scales. Language policy processes can be seen as practices and ideologies in action and this volume therefore investigates how social actors in a wide range of geographical settings embrace, contribute to, resist and also reject (aspects of) minority language standardization.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the Moyen Bani Programme as an example, External Assistance or External Interference gives an analysis of a grassroots conflict which, not foreseen at project design, lasted six years in Mali. This book provides the historical, economic, and political backgrounds that influenced the design and the conflict resolution. Concepts of perception, emotion, and identity explain the frames of the actors in the conflict. Notions including static and dynamic frames are used to explain their positions at different times during the conflict resolution. It explores the need of protagonists in rural conflicts to increase the political and economic resources they possess to achieve their goals. This need brought the intervention into the conflict of an international NGO. The book examines the "whys" and "wherefores" of the intervention by the NGO. The effects of the conflict on the project results are examined. The book contributes to the development of paradigms for conflict resolution as well as for project planning and analysis.

Download or read book Panjab written by Amandeep Sandhu and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2022-12-05 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike people born in Panjab who have a direct connection with, and hence a memory of the land, I have no liminal or tangible marker of belonging to Panjab. While my family did hail from Panjab, I was neither born here, nor do I live here. I have no address, bank statement, Aadhaar card, passport or land ownership to prove my connection with Panjab. In 2015, Amandeep Sandhu began an investigation that was meant to resolve the 'hole in his heart', his 'emptiness about matters Panjab'. For three years, he crisscrossed the state and discovered a land that was nothing like the one he had imagined and not like the stories he had heard. Present-day Panjab prides itself on legends of its military and valorous past even as it struggles with daily horrors. The Green Revolution has wreaked ecological havoc in the state, and a decade and a half of militancy has destabilised its economy and governance. Sikhism-the state's eclectic and syncretic religion- is in crisis, its gatekeepers brooking no dissent and giving little spiritual guidance. And Panjab has yet to recover from the loss of its other half, now in Pakistan. This revised edition includes a chapter on the 2020-21 farmers' struggle which proved beyond doubt that the old spirit of the land with its undercurrent of resistance to power and hegemony still beats away. The hope that Panjab's unyielding knots can be untied continues to linger.

Book excerpt: Somewhere on earth…Vidi, a village healer and her daughter, Saphrina, have their usual problems- a cranky maid, weird nightmares about battles that seem strangely real and, for Saphrina, a blossoming crush on a kingdom knight. Meanwhile, in Nagalok…Vadi, a Naga princess, is excited about her coming of age ceremony, that will bring her a Nagamani and a prophesy of love. But foul things have set in motion on Earth and in the Underworld. The River of Ages, the life source of the Nagas is turning toxic. Earthly armies are marching in secret and a deadly few have escaped from Nark, the Prison of Creation. Many simple lives are going to get complex, and a few unlikely heroes will emerge. In their hands will lie the future - for the River of Ages carries the tears of Rudra and Parvati - tears of pain and love, capable of catastrophe and creation. Which of the two will triumph? Are Heaven, Earth and the Patal heading towards salvation or destruction?

Book excerpt: With Mande Music, Eric Charry offers the most comprehensive source available on one of Africa's richest and most sophisticated music cultures. Using resources as disparate as early Arabic travel accounts, oral histories, and archival research as well as his own extensive studies in Mali, Guinea, Senegal, and the Gambia, Charry traces this music culture from its origins in the thirteenth-century Mali empire to the recording studios of Paris and New York. He focuses on the four major spheres of Mande music—hunter's music, music of the jelis or griots, jembe and other drumming, and guitar-based modern music—exploring how each evolved, the types of instruments used, the major artists, and how each sphere relates to the others. With its maps, illustrations, and musical transcriptions as well as an exhaustive bibliography, discography, and videography, this book is essential reading for those seeking an in-depth look at one of the most exciting, innovative, and deep-rooted phenomena on the world music scene. A compact disc is available separately.

Book excerpt: A mysterious creature appears in the Mandinka Kingdom of Kaabu, claiming the lives of many people. In such a highly superstitious kingdom, its appearance and claim to numerous lives leaves everyone thinking that it is not ordinary for such a creature, which their ancestors never knew to appear in the kingdom. Numo, the protagonist of the story, and his brother Arfang get lost in the forest, prompting the entire village of Passamarey to prepare an army to search for them. After being found unhurt, their mother, Manke, is severely admonished for allowing the situation to unfold, putting the lives of the entire army at risk. Years pass, and Numo and Arfang grow older. The creature continues to kill more people. One day, during a hunting expedition, Numo and his brother, along with their father, come across a stinking human carcass – a man killed and desecrated by the mysterious creature. Numo makes a resolution to kill the creature when he grows up. The following chapters depict various rituals and festivals that illustrate a typical Mandinka society before colonialism. After Numo and his brother are circumcised and initiated into manhood, circumstances change, but Numo remains resolute on killing the creature. Finally, the great marabout of the land calls upon Numo and his brother, Arfang, and reveals that they are destined to kill the creature – actually a human being who transforms into a creature as a form of vengeance against the king of Kaabu for disrespecting her. Numo and Arfang are prepared by the marabout and set off on their journey. After a long and tiresome journey, they encounter the creature and finally kill her, but on her own terms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel to criminal underworld of eighteenth-century London in this start to a trilogy that Entertainment Weekly" calls "a rollicking historical adventure." The year is 1763. Gideon Seymour, thief and gentleman, is hiding from the villainous Tar Man. Suddenly the sky peels away like fabric, and from the gaping hole fall two curious-looking children. Peter Schock and Kate Dyer have fallen straight from the twenty-first century, thanks to a faulty experiment with an antigravity machine. Before Gideon and the children have a chance to gather their wits, the Tar Man takes off with the machine--and Peter and Kate's only chance of getting home. Soon Gideon, Peter, and Kate are swept into a journey through the dangerous underworld of eighteenth-century London, traveling the routes of notorious highwaymen and even entering King George's palace. And along they way they form a bond that, they hope, will stand strong in the face of unfathomable treachery. Filled with adventure, intrigue, and plenty of twists and turns, this start to a trilogy is written by a history scholar and wordsmith who makes the extraordinary believable, and will keep you on the edge of your seat.
