L’altérité de soi et l’esthétique du bruit dans la fulgurance existentielle L’exemple de Manka talèbo de Konan Roger Langui

Manka talèbo is a poetic song rooted in the social dynamics, particularly in a libation writing context which is largely based on drum language. The figure of Attoungblan, the speaking drum in the Akan community, is actually at the heart of the work. It has a sacred and sententious voice whose solemn and spasmodic notes have official speech value in the social area. Throughout Roger Langui’s work, the speech which is both poetic and initiatory looks toward oneself and the other. Features of an imaginary molded by noise and lightning patterns appears as a clue to a human existence and explores his relationship to a hereafter of Creation.
