Book synopsis

Tabanism explores the overlooked in the poetry of a §man much misunderstood. Tabanism penetrates the §cacophony, the mist, and the dust of erudite lingua §shrouding Taban s poetry to present the hidden man §and his struggles with life, poetry, society and §religion. Unraveling the art and artist becomes §necessary in the study of Taban lo Liyong s poetry §because over time critics have obscured Taban s true §worth as a modern African poet by disparagingly §describing his work as gnomic as if to say §impenetrable.§§Whereas critics like Balogun Odun and Ogo Ofuani §seek to understand the language of Taban in The §uniformed Man and Another Nigger Dead, Tabanism is a §near exhaustive study of themes, style and influence §of Modernism in Taban s Frantz Fanon s Uneven Ribs. §In addition, by delving into Taban lo Liyong s §philosophical inclinations and educational §background, Tabanism successfully accounts for the §sources of difficulty that have bedeviled the §consummation of the poetry of one of Africa s best.
