Description

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, Fokwang,s 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 Fokwang,s 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.
