Ituika: The Wily Polygamist and Other Stories
Author: Munyao Kilolo
Publisher: African Books Collective
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Volume 1 of the Ituika Literary Platform multilingual anthology brings together stories in 8 Kenyan Languages, with translations into English and Kiswahili published together in one volume. These original stories and their translations, each with its own unique form and content, cover a diverse range of themes. From workplace politics to mental health, illicit brews, the pandemic, the fluidity of borders, and family drama, these stories are sure to engage and captivate readers with their depth and variety. At the heart of this collection is literary translation in practice. Each translator takes their unique approach to both language and craft to deliver the most truthful and or creative translation of the original works. For the first time, Kenyans and readers around the world can read a story in three languages in one volume, a testament to the multilingual nature of African cultures.- Munyao Kilolo, Editor. This anthology of translated short stories is a landmark effort on many fronts. It embodies the diversity of literary works in African languages and enriches our understanding of experiences on the continent from varied angles. Having worked with the translators in November 2021, I can confirm that the stories capture the aesthetic features of the source text and render them creatively in the target language. Where deviations from the original text are manifest, it is to enrich the reader's experience. Translations between African languages are urgent and worthwhile. I strongly recommend this book to those interested in African languages and in translation studies. - Kimani wa Njogu, Twaweza Communications, Nairobi.

The Legacy of Tanzanian Musicians Muhidin Gurumo and Hassan Bitchuka
Author: Frank Gunderson
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1498564402
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 357
Book Description
Muhidin Maalim Gurumo and Hassan Rehani Bitchuka are two of Tanzania’s most well-known singers in the popular music genre known as muziki wa dansi (literally, 'music for dancing'), a variation of the Cuban-based rhumba idiom that has been enormously impactful throughout central, eastern, and western Africa in the contemporary era. This interview-based dual biography investigates the lives and careers of these two men from an ethnomusicological and historical perspective. Gurumo had a career spanning fifty years before his death in 2014. Bitchuka has been singing professionally for forty-five years. The two singers, affectionately called mapacha (“the twins”) by their colleagues, worked together as partners for thirty years from 1973-2003. This study situates these exemplary individuals as creative agents in a local cultural context, showcasing interviews, narratives, and nostalgic reminiscences about musical life lived under Colonialism, state Socialism, and current politics in the global neoliberal democratic milieu. The book adds to a growing body of work about popular music in Dar es Salaam and shines a light on these artists’ creative processes, the choices they have made regarding rare resources, their styles and efficacy in conflict resolution, and their own memories regarding the musical art they have created.
