Part One traces the etymological Lexemes of Swahili words to Arabic TrI-Radical Roots in an effort to show that many Swahili Prose Genres were, in form, much like the same forms found in Arabic. Part Two, proposes a new approach to writing literary histories of African language literatures by developing a new approach at re-creating context as the sole influence of literary change.
