Sunjata started life as a gluttonous and slow-witted child but went on to become a celebrated warrior who defeated the Susu overlords and founded the great Mali empire in the early thirteenth century. Equally crucial in the conquest was the role of his sister Nene Faamaga, who lured his archenemy, Sumanguru, into revealing the secret magical powers that made him invulnerable.
These stories remain central to the culture of the Mande-speaking peoples. This book brings together translations of live performances by two leading Gambian jalis (or bards). Where Banna Kanute's exciting version is all about violent action, supernatural forces, and the struggle for mastery, Bamba Suso uses far more dialogue to reveal his insight into human relationships. A map, notes, and lists of the characters (many of whom have several names) help nonspecialists gain access to one of the major epic oral traditions of Africa.
