O knihe

The book presents various types of song used by the Congolese to express their deepest feelings.In fact, many people are content with the melody without paying attention to the message conveyed by the author, whereas there is a hidden intention behind each song.So we began by listing the different songs, from the so-called traditional ones to those of modern music, where we drew out the themes developed, including the semantics of each song.In fact, the latter reflects the author's or community's vision of the world, and is characterized by the lessons to be learned. It appears as a means par excellence of communication aimed at different social strata, with the aim of harmonizing internal relations.Nowadays, it has been proven that song also facilitates the release of tension and helps to achieve catharsis to a certain extent, especially in the case of so-called traditional or even religious songs.To help understand the communities targeted in the analysis, an ethnological presentation preceded the exploitation of the songs.
