dc.descriptionIn this book, Phyllis Martin, a well-known Africanist scholar, opens up a whole new field of African research: the leisure activities of urban Africans. Her comprehensive study, set in colonial Brazzaville and based on a wide variety of written sources and interviews, investigates recreational activities from football and fashion to music, dance and night-life. In it, she brings out the way in which these activities built social networks, humanized daily life and forged new identities, and explains how they ultimately helped to remake older traditions and values with new cultural forms.-
