Description

History Dances: Chronicling the History of Traditional Mandinka Dance offers a unique perspective on African historical documentation. While traditional history often relies on written records, this work explores how culture serves as the center of life in Africa. In many instances, the process for documenting events was performed rather than written down. Ofosuwa M. Abiola argues that traditional Mandinka dance holds a wealth of information that functions as an African-derived primary source. By examining these performances, researchers can find vital data for writing African history. This book is part of the Routledge Advances in Theatre and Performance Studies series, making it a valuable resource for those studying the connection between performance and historical record-keeping.
