Extract

Any serious study of the literary and artistic forms of expression found in the continent of Africa south of the Sahara must open with a look at the traditional forms of expression. It is these forms of which the various intellectual movements in Africa are becoming increasingly aware, a trend exemplified by the Festival of Negro Arts organised a few years back at Dakar.
