In "Structuralist Poetics" (1975), Culler
postulates that '...the institution of mythology
leads an uncertain existence and few could be said to
have assimilated its system' (p.50). In this book,
Dr. Wainaina seeks to address this 'uncertain
existence' with particular regard to
G k y mythology. He challenges both the
exclusiveness of the typological
definitions of myth previously used, and the
atomistic approaches to its analyses and interpretations.
Consequently, he adopts the seminal Okpewhorean
aestheticist position that myth is the basic imaginative
resource from which the larger cultural values derive
and that any narrative
of the oral
tradition is a myth (Okpewho,1983). Additionally, he
adopts an approach that essentialises structural unity of
G k y mythology and appropriates cultural
signification to
mythological structures, defined as
Worlds. Dr. Wainaina
proposes that G k y modes of cultural thought and
practice can
be derived from analysis of
transformational relationships of the
Worlds of the culture's mythology . Come on a brilliantly
guided voyage
of mythological discovery at the end of
which you will certainly appreciate and easily
assimilate its system.
