This handbook offers the most comprehensive, analytic, and multidisciplinary study of oral traditions and folklore in Africa and the African Diaspora to date. Preeminent scholars Akintunde Akinyemi and Toyin Falola assemble a team of leading and rising stars across African Studies research to retrieve and renew the scholarship of oral traditions and folklore in Africa and the Diaspora just as critical concerns about their survival are pushed to the forefront of the field. With five sections on the central themes within orality and folklore – including engagement ranging from popular culture to technology, methods to pedagogy – this handbook is an indispensable resource to scholars, students, and practitioners of oral traditions and folklore preservation alike. This definitive reference is the first to provide detailed, systematic discussion, and up-to-date analysis of African oral traditions and folklore.

The rehabilitation, by St. Pope Paul VI, of African traditional religions and cultures has made them more objective for theological and anthropological reflection. And the reflecting subject is a native African himself. And the repatriation of missiology into ecclesiology in the Catholic Church in the 21st Century is a new development; and the result if it is what we have before us in this book. Here personal native anthropological and theological experience has combined with in-depth reading of the African novelists’ necessarily biased distillation of African culture has nourished thinking and reflection at a new level in terms of ecclesial implications of living Christianity authentically and being and building the Church in my father’s home.

Despite the richness of the subject and the importance frequently ascribed to the phenomena of rhythm and timing in the arts, the topic as a whole has been neglected. Janet Goodridge writes from a practical movement background and draws on a wide range of sources to illuminate the subject in relation to theatre, drama, dance, ceremony, and ritual.
