Aliou Mohamadou, Le Verbe en peul : Formes et valeurs en pulaar du Fuuta-Tooro
No full textThis monograph by Aliou Mohamadou is the first exhaustive study of verb morphology in the Atlantic language Fula. In this work, based on the Fuuta-Tooro dialect spoken in Senegal, the author examines in impressive detail verb roots as well as any morphemes that may be attached to these roots. In contrast to most discussions on inflectional paradigms in Fula, the form-function relationship of verb suffixes is analysed primarily by using data from a corpus. This particular approach makes this ..

His family left Guinea-Bissau during the liberation war in 1964 and settled in Seka-Fula. His father passed away one year later in 1965. After his father died, his older brother, Mama Sama Ndiaye, supervised his studies. The family later relocated to Bemme in Casamance, in order to be far away from Seka-Fula where the bullets from the battlefield of the liberation war in Guinea-Bissau reached. Later on, the family settled in Adeane.Images with manuscript owner Aliou Ndiaye and around his neighborhood in Adéane, Kolda, Senegal, for the manuscript digitization work done in July 2018

It was announced and experimented on the African continent almost sixty years ago in the spirit of open science and energy technology commons. Dryers and boilers, solar pumps and thermodynamic power plants: as early as the late 1950’s, pioneers have developed and implemented techniques and installations, particularly in Senegal.This book is the outcome of two scientific study days organized in Dakar in May 2016. Charged with symbolic sensibility, it is the first ever attempt to account the history and the future of solar energy in Africa. In the first part of the book, Western Africa’s solar energy policies of the last half-century are examined from a socio-historical standpoint. Testimonies from hands-on actors in the solar energy field are completed by a reissue of a reference text published by professor Abdou Moumouni Dioffo, Nigerian Solar Energy pioneer as early as 1964. In the second part, the book interrogates present time pursuits and prolongations of solar energy, both in France and in Senegal, with a focus on respective law and regulation frameworks. Can solar energy be considered (or must it be considered) as a commons, or in other words, as a fundamental human right? Which legal rights in Senegal impact solar energy? How do they compare to the French body of law and what can be ascertained from this comparison?Bringing together French and Senegalese jurists and Energy Sociology and Politics experts, the collected texts are an invitation, as much as a tool, for pursuing African History and Solar Energy Law research."Le présent ouvrage, issu de deux journées d’études organisées à Dakar en mai 2016, rend compte pour la première fois, de manière particulièrement symbolique, de l’histoire et du futur de l’énergie solaire en Afrique.

Elle a été annoncée et expérimentée sur le continent dans un esprit de science ouverte et de « communs » technologiques et énergétiques il y a déjà près de soixante ans.
