Combining history, archaeology, anthropology, and linguistics, Bantu Africa, synthesizes the most current scholarship on one of the most important cultural zones in world history, an area larger than the United States, and whose traditions span several thousands of years. It examines fourimportant, interconnected themes. The authors show how Bantu cultural ideas continue to shape modern realities in new contexts. By examining the cultural, political, religous, economic, and social issues in the Bantu world, Bantu Africa gives students an understanding of the long-term history of animmense cultural zone. The text also addresses the types over the longue duree, of social relationships Bantu-speaking people had with people of distinct linguistic and cultural traditions; the kinds of innovations that came out of those cross-cultural interactions; the tactics they used tonegotiate societal tensions; the ways gender and seniority dynamics influenced societal institutions; and the extent to which Bantu-speaking people shaped Atlantic and Indian Ocean History. | Bantu Africa by Catherine Cymone Fourshey, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
