Far beyond a musical rhythm, taarab is understood as a framework of encounters and exchanges shaped by the confluence of influences in Tanzania and the Indian Ocean. This publication examines how these interactions have fostered a vibrant cultural landscape, offering readers insights into the ways artistic practices and historical exchanges intertwine to create a tapestry of shared heritage and creativity. Echoing the complexities of Zanzibar's history--a crossroads of African, Arabic, Asian and European influences--this volume offers the possibility of reflecting on nuances and accents of humanity on an island that is a point of intersection for multiple cultures, philosophies and sciences.","brand":"Cara","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47575240671383,"sku":"9781954939134","price":1291.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781954939134.webp?v=1774897576","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/mawali-taqsim-improvisation-as-a-space-and-technology-of-humanity-educational-publication-vol-3-9781954939134","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
