Opis

The multiplicity of traditions makes Africa, and Nigeria in particular, a cradle of rich spiritual and socio-cultural potential, truly original. This collection, Jeu de Danse et Les Contes Ibibio, resuscitates and revalorizes these rich varieties of African mores through its various manifestations, namely âbrè dance, as a game and object of tradition, and storytelling as a literary heritage in the field of civilization of a people, in this case, the "Ibibio" people of Akwa Ibom State of Nigeria. This book is dedicated to raising awareness of the aesthetic and cultural values of âbrè dance and Ibibio storytelling on a global platform.
