Abstract

Despite being a large capital city in Africa in terms of size and its regional role, Nairobi is an unrecognised entity. For the majority of its inhabitants, the capital of Kenya is a transit point rather than a dwelling place.

Abstract

"Unbury our Dead With Song is a novel about four talented Ethiopian musicians - The Diva, The Corporal, the Taliban Man and Miriam, who are competing to see who can sing the best Tizita (popularly referred to as Ethiopian blues). Taking place in an illegal boxing hall in Nairobi, Kenya, the competition is covered by a US educated Kenyan journalist, John Thandi Manfredi, who writes for a popular tabloid, The National Inquisitor. He follows the musicians back to Ethiopia in order to learn more about the Tizita and their lives. As he learns more about the Tizita and the multiple meanings of beauty, he uncovers that behind each of the musicians, there are layered lives and secrets. A love letter to African music, beauty and imagination."

Abstract

A partir d'enquêtes de terrain et d'analyses anthropologiques ou politologiques, cet ouvrage se propose de dresser l'état des lieux des pratiques funéraires, comprises dans un sens large, à Nairobi, au Kenya. On y décrit les évènements qui précèdent et suivent la mort d'une personne et l'univers symbolique, politique ou économique qui enveloppent lesdites pratiques urbaines novatrices. Les conséquences de l'urbanisation et de la christianisation sur les représentations locales de la mort sont ainsi éclairées.
