Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Includes dust jacket. First Edition. The Medicine Man: Swifa Ya Nguvumali is a fascinating modern Swahili ballad centred on a murder investigation in Tanzania and the involvement of the mysterious medicine man Nguvumali. Through the poet Hasani bin Ismailâs vivid and often h…umorous narration, the work explores village life, belief in sorcery and magic, and the tensions between traditional healing and official authority. The accompanying introduction examines the social and cultural background of the poem and includes discussion of real murder trials in which sorcery was alleged. An unusual and thought-provoking addition for readers and collectors of African literature, Swahili poetry, anthropology and East African cultural studies. First Edition.
