‘African Language Review’

Abstract

SINCE its establishment in 1962 the Sierra Leone Language Review has served to revive the tradition of linguistic research established in Sierra Leone in the 1790s and associated with Fourah Bay College from its foundation in 1827.The Review has expanded steadily in size and geographical scope and the sixth annual volume is the first to appear under the new, broader title of African Language Review, the African Language Journal of Fourah Bay College.The policy and editorship remains unchanged.The Review will continue to concentrate on the cultural and historical study of African languages without neglecting their descriptive study.' Cultural' is interpreted as embracing literary, ethnographic, and educational aspects, and attention will be paid not only to indigenous African languages but also to European and Creole languages in Africa and the Caribbean.
