Book Synopsis A Dictionary of Popular Bali Names by : John Koyela Fokwang

Download or read book A Dictionary of Popular Bali Names written by John Koyela Fokwang and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2010 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Dictionary of Popular Bali Names is an exceptional minefield of Chamba names, meticulously assembled and expatiated for the curious user. As a pioneer in the field of dictionary-writing in the Cameroon grassfields, Fokwangís third edition counts for more than a regular dictionary. It skilfully combines a short history of the Chamba people in Cameroon as well as ethnographic issues on the naming ritual. John Fokwangís work stands in a class of its own and will serve as reference material for people of Chamba descent and those who favour the use of African names in general. This edition is an exceptionally worthy contribution to the ethnography of the Cameroon grassfields and of course, the growing literature and interest on African names and languages.
