Human Brain - A Collection of African Oral Wisdom on the Cortical Zones introduces the Dance of Science and Storytelling, an innovative fusion of African oral traditions and modern neuroscience, designed as a primer for teaching and learning science in African languages. It translates the complex functions of the cortical zones into the poetic, proverbial, and riddling traditions of African societies. Here, the sciences of the mind and body are returned to the people, not in sterile formulas but in the vibrant language of the griots, storytellers, and wisdom keepers.
By reconstructing the scientific discourse of the brain through oral literary forms, this book aims to:
- Demystify the science of the brain using poetry, riddles, maxims, and folktales.
- Reclaim traditional knowledge of mental and sensory functions.
- Revive African linguistic creativity in scientific discourse.
- Reconnect oral traditions with contemporary scientific learning.
This book reclaims scientific discourse for African communities, proving that knowledge of the brain already exists within oral traditions. It argues that by reintegrating poetry, proverbs, and stories into science education, we make learning more inclusive, accessible, and culturally meaningful.
As the elders say, A story untold is wisdom buried. This book unearths forgotten wisdom, bringing neuroscience back to the people in their own words.
