Of Land, Bones, and Money

The oral poets of the amaXhosa people have long shaped understandings of history and offered a forum for grappling with change. This book examines the role of these poets in South African society and the ways in which they have helped inform responses to apartheid, the injustices of extractive capitalism, and contemporary politics in South Africa.

Poetii orali ai poporului amaXhosa au inteles de mult timp istoria si au oferit un forum pentru a se confrunta cu schimbarea. Aceasta carte examineaza rolul acestor poeti in societatea sud-africana si modalitatile prin care acestia au contribuit la informarea raspunsurilor la apartheid, la nedreptatile capitalismului extractiv si la politica contemporana din Africa de Sud.
