Abstract
This is a very interesting and provocative article which tries to link linguistic concepts with the analysis and appreciation of poetic texts. Indeed, this kind of analysis ia lacking a lot in the criticism of Kiswahili literature, and any attempt to link the two sides, i.e the linguistic and the aesthelic approaches to the literature, is very welcome.
