Anotace knihy

Dagara oral literature covers a wide range of folklore. This book deals with Dagara proverbs and how they are used in context. It examines tropes found in Dagara proverbial expressions such as idiomatic proverbs, xylophone musical texts and riddles. Like most proverbs, they are better understood in situational and hypothetical contexts. The thematic perspective of Dagara proverbs authenticates them in relation to context and tropes. This book bridges an academic gap in Dagara proverbs whose tropes were not given adequate focus by previous scholars on Dagara proverbs. Moreover, this book contributes to knowledge on Dagara folklore and rekindles interest of Dagara youths towards their oral traditions relegated to the background because of modern scientific innovations. However, keen researchers on Dagara folklore and oral traditions will discover this book as a valuable text which engenders cross-cultural studies on African proverbs as they are used in different cultural environments. Tropes examined include metaphors, antithesis, litotes, rhetorical questions and synecdoche. However, the structure of the Dagara dirge is marked by rhetorical questions, ellipsis and panegyric values.
