"The epic tale that constitutes the core of this study is the first attempt of a literary reconstruction of the foundation myth of the Wolof, the myth of Njaajaan Njaay as performed by a griot, Sèq Ñan ... The second text with which this study is concerned is a genealogy of the rulers of Waalo, also from the lips of Sèq Ñan"--Introd.
