L'A. discute des processus par lesquels la voix, le discours et meme le langage sont transformes pendant la production de l'art verbal africain. Les transformations de la voix comprennent la modification du ton, le ventriloquisme et le sifflement. Dans la transformation du discours il y a souvent une substitution du son. Quand le langage est transforme, un langage ambigu et plurivocal est cree. Ces transformations sont decrites et leurs emplois et effets discutes
