Linguistic treatments of Bantu languages have traditionally focused on broadly historical/comparative studies or on prototypical characteristics of the family, such as the nominal class system, the complexity of the verbal TAM system, or the tonal system. Consequently, far less attention has been placed upon the nominal phrase as a syntactic unit. To this end, Rugemalira (2007) proposes greater emphasis on Bantu morphosyntax generally. As such, the present study--situated within a broader discussion of the Bantu NP (cf. Chitebeta 2007, Godson and Godson 2015, Lusekelo 2009, Makanjila 2019, Möller 2011, Ondondo 2015, Rugemalira 2007)--builds upon Spier (2020) and introduces the first descriptive account of the nominal phrase in Ikyaushi, an underdocumented linguistic variety spoken in the Republic of Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The data for this study, which arrive from fourteen narratives shared orally by male and female native speakers of the grandparental generation, indicate that seven distinct elements may co-occur with the nominal, but utterances with between one and three co-occurring adnominals are far more frequently attested and comprehensible to speakers.

À partir des années 1980, l’on a commencé à parler en France du français des banlieues, des cités, des quartiers, définitions qui paraissent toutes dans l’ouvrage Français des banlieues dirigé par Marie-Madeleine Bertucci et Daniel Delas en 2004 et encore dans l’article de Marie-Madeleine Bertucci Les dictionnaires des parlers jeunes 1980-2000. On y fait le point sur la recherche concernant le français dans ces espaces de marginalisation où tous ceux qui sont exclus, ou qui s’autoexcluent, cherchent une identité à mi-chemin entre leur culture d’origine et la culture française (Bertucci et Delas 2004: 47-62). Un fait parallèle dans l’évolution du français en Afrique noire francophone est la création, en particulier chez les jeunes, de codes métissés résultant du croisement de plusieurs langues parmi lesquelles, le français. Le livre Parlers jeunes, ici et là-bas. Pratiques et représentations, de l’équipe dirigée par Thierry Bulot en 2004, propose un panorama de la situation linguistique de ces parlers jeunes dans une dizaine de capitales africaines. On y met l’accent sur la sociolinguistique urbaine dont le thème identificateur est de considérer le langage comme une activité socialement localisée, et dont l’étude est menée directement sur le terrain.

Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa is a South African sangoma, a writer and artist, and a controversial ‘expert’ on UFO-related conspiracy theories. He considers himself an expert on South African, especially Zulu, cultures and religions. He is rejected by academics and often considered a self-imposed ‘expert’ and a fake whose version of Zulu religious beliefs has ventured so far from Zulu religion that they are hardly recognisable. Mutwa himself claims to be misunderstood and falsely judged. He calls himself a shaman, a ‘Chosen One’, a guardian of secret knowledge and an expert on esoteric African wisdom. In the article I present V.C. Mutwa’s artistic accomplishments, his version of Zulu mythology and sangomas’ work, and I compare his versions to known facts about Zulu culture. I also analyse Mutwa’s popularity within New Age circles and try to assess the veracity of Mutwa’s claims and place him within New Age rhetoric. DOI: https://doi.org/10.32690/SALC52.6
