'Just to Be' Is Simply 'Not to Be at All': An Ethno-Linguistic Investigation Into Bemba Worldview and Personhood - Forschungen Zu Sprachen Und Kulturen Afrikas

"In short, I found Badenberg's book to be a splendid, highly captivating piece of ethnographic and linguistic scholarship, one that uncovers layer upon layer of insight regarding the Bemba people and their culture, language, life-view, and lifestyle. I do not recall a work quite as comprehensive (or well done) in anything else that I have read in this field over the half-century that I have been engaged with Africa." --Ernst R. Wendland, Stellenbosch University and Lusaka Lutheran Seminary, Zambia
