Thèse présentée pour l’obtention du grade de Docteur en Philosophie et Lettres
par Léopold MPIKA
En analysant la production des céramiques contemporaines Kongo, on peut s'efforcer de vérifier l'hypothèse selon laquelle les populations, qui se disent Kongo du Royaume de Kongo, sont effectivement héritières d'une formation sociopolitique ancienne et culturellement unitaire.
L’observation des chaînes opératoires céramiques des populations bantoues du groupe H10 (Manyanga, Sundi, Dondo, Kamba et Bembé) a permis de relever un certain nombre de convergences et de divergences techniques. Il n'y a pas de statut particulier, seules les femmes s'intéressent au façonnage des poteries. Elles travaillent seules ou en groupe organisé. Les matières premières, argile noire, grise, rouge ou blanche, ainsi que la psammite, sont exploitées sur les bords des rivières et leurs confluent et sur les flancs des collines. Ces matières premières sont extraites avec des outils utilisés habituellement pour les travaux agricoles, comme la houe ou la daba. L'argile est préparée par adjonction de psammite et malaxage sur une meule avec une molette. Le façonnage consiste à modeler un cône d'argile à base arrondie que la potière creuse pour former le fond et la panse des récipients. La partie supérieure des vases est façonnée par adjonction de colombins. Le décor intervient en deux temps :après le façonnage et après la cuisson. Lorsque l’ébauche a légèrement séché au soleil, les parois sont incisées avec une spatule, des arêtes de poisson ou au dicrotachynutans. Enfin, après quelques semaines de séchage, les poteries sont cuites en meules et décorées immédiatement à l’aide d’une décoction de bridelia ferruginea. Le contact du sel, les menstruations, les relations sexuelles sont interdits aux femmes potières pendant le façonnage des poteries.
Cette recherche a permis d’identifier deux grands ensembles de traditions céramiques Kongo au Bas-Congo. Le premier groupe comprend la céramique Manyanga et Sundi caractérisée par le façonnage au colombin, la cuisson des poteries en dépression et par le décor des poteries à la décoction de bridelia ferruginea. Le deuxième groupe comprend la céramique Dondo, Kamba et Bembe caractérisée par le façonnage sur un fond de cône à base arrondie, une technique de cuisson sur aire plane et des décors tracés au pinceau à l’aide d’une macération bridelia ferruginea.
Au terme de ce travail, nous avons aussi relevé plusieurs facteurs qui caractérisent l'unité culturelle des populations Kongo-Congolaises par-delà les divisions ethniques.

Owing the influence of Otwere on the Mbosi Olee's society, it sounded necessary to dedicate a particular study to it, structured around the following mainlines. - For a start, we have identified the subgroup of Mbosi Olee, defined its social and political organization, its economic and cultural life as well. - Then we moved on to general points such as : its nature, its function, its internal organization and the different ceremonies inherent to Otwere. - We also have explained the details of implementation of Otwere's judicial power, as well as the different cases it deals with. - To finish, we drew special attention to the exogenous and endogenous causes, to the consequences of Otwere's decline, and lasty, we pondered over the genuine nature of this institution

Workmen and employees, kongo belonging to elf-congo and agip-recherches congo and partly separated from their traditional environment, are now facing problems such as : -remaining thoroughly faithful to the logic of a world sticking to traditional structures which some sides less and less appeal to reality ; - or including more and more modernity, so as to improve the structures ; - or furthermore combining modernism as a complementary element with the traditional society. Today the lineage relations are mainly struck by this problem

To understand the forming of the person also means and mostly grasping the complexity of the cultural environment. Therefore, the values signify the person and the person has his meanings through essential values. This is carried out by connecting basic ties that never break. They express a contant balance work of two poles : filiation links and union ties. The inflation or the breaking of one of the poles give rise to conflicts. In short, thanks to our environment we will try a theorization of the child's appropriateness in his cultural context and to himself

Full textReports of Europeans dating back to the 16th century suggest that there once existed an important kingdom in the Congo whose civilization had been modified by contact with the west. Already noticeable at this time was the Congolese desire to "be seen". Although European goods became progressively more important, the usage of and the meaning given to them by the Congolese was, no doubt, different. Clothing is an example of this, and the appearance, during the 1950's of clubs such as the "existos", the "cabarets", the "simple et bien", etc. , whose principal characteristic was their dress, support this idea. The effect of these values, over generations, was to give rise to a lifestyle revolving around being seen "dressed up" and to create a longstanding tradition in the district of bacongo. Twenty years after the "existos", the "simple et bien" etc. The "sapeurs" ("well-dressed") appeared, holding much the same values as their predecessors. It is by dressing up and being a part of the attached sub-culture that these young people create their own identity. Dressed up has also remained a means of protest and or social rehabilitation. Moreover, their behavior labels them as delinquants, or as outsiders, and hinders their subsequent attempts at social integration. Two individual case studies will illustrate the initiation process to the "sapeur" sub-culture

Full textHandicap sets a problem and frightens. This fear persists as silence and avoidance are the best safety devices. Ignorance feeds the fear. Unexpected handicap in a family gives rise to violent emotional reactions leading to paradoxical situations. Whereas the tendency is to consider the disabled person and his family as "the other", the thing itself induces an emotional reaction which has an impact on one's behaviour. This behaviour is inflected by each one's own personality and by the social group one belongs to. Our study is an essay which attempts to give a better knowledge of the disabled child and teenager, to analyse the process of integration, their evolution in a pre-scholastic structure and in primary school, as well as the discriminations and evictions they are subject to, and to bring some answers to the following questions : how can the progress of a function help the child if that child cannot experience that function ? how to help that child to be autonomous notwithstanding the environment in which he lives ? the kongo consider the handicap as fate as well as the notion is related to the way of life the person or a member of his her family has led. It seemed important to us to ascertain this problem through school integration

Full textThis PhD-thesis explores the mainly female song and dance practices of the Punu of Congo-Brazzaville. It develops their potential to give expression to creative impulses and affects and also highlights their regenerative capacity. To this enjd a double approach is adopted: a phenomenological and a praxeological one. Each approach is realized through a specific method. A precise description of concrete events discloses their most striking impulses and inspirations emerging in connection with the pre-established song and dance structure. The outline of the different dynamics leads to the qualification of these events as potential spaces: they open up space for singular contributuions that nevertheless stay in close connection with the group and the shared ethos. An analysis of the Punu life world at moments of important transition. It is sustained that this revitalisation acts through a resonance connecting the physical, social and cosmic body, furthered by the congruence operating between the song and dance forms and the regenerated universe. The song and dance practices are most strongly oriented towards the watersprit universe. As this universe is conceived in reference to the intra-uterine experience, its nature and the particularity of the dance dynamics relating to it are finally re-evaluated in their matrixial dimension, i. E. In their weaving of transformational borderlinks that generate continuous transmissions in a multisensorial encounter that is accompanied by shared and diffused affects

Full textApart from quite noticeable differences, the groups making up the Koongo ethnolinguistic community have so many common points in their basic cultural features that the term Koongo, an ethnonym which is appropriate to one single can be rightly extended to all of these groups. Taking their stand from this deeprooted cultural unity which is moreover justified by a myth of origin, a number of authors attribute one common element to all these groups. The present dissertation aims at proving the contrary, or at least, at qualifying some conclusions which have been far too systematic; it intends to show that the Koongo ethnic community does not result from a gradual expansion of the Koongo group stricto sensu but that on the contrary it appears as a result of a long process of gathering and mixing up the various communities that had no kinship. It follows that this integration did not occur at the same time for all of them. As far as the societies and civilisation of the Niari valley are concerned, a laborious analysis of the main sources available makes it possible to assert that between the 16th and the 17th centurie, the ancestors of the present Sundi, Kaamba, Beembe, Kunyi, Dondo were already present there and that their cultural and political integration to the Koongo Koine was over

Full textOur study deals with the imaginary way of thinking in the social life of the kongo-lari people of the republic of congo from the ancient times up to the present time. The magic and religious believes constitute the fundamental base of the collective "imaginaire" of the kongo-lari,. From the pre-colonial period to the colonial time and from the colonial period to the period of the national constrcution, ancestors worship, witchcraft and sorcery remain th emost important beleives. In spite of the assimilation policy undertaken by thez french colonizers during the colonial time (1875-1960) and the work of evangelization done by the european christian missionaries in order to change kongo-lari's way of thinking, many traditional believes coming from the past are still alive nowadays. We have noticed in our study that the kongo-lari have adopted some european cultural values, but they have not accepted to loose the whole soul of their own culture. For example, when they are ill, they go to modern hospitals and at the same time they believe in the power of witch doctors. This is the way they live because of the deep influence of the imagination in their social life

Full textIn this work, the author aimed at observing on one hand the nowadays images of the father and the uncle in the child's relationship and psychical spaces; on the other hand, the author will tend towards putting them in relation with factors which implicate these images in the same time as she's going to study the family context in which these images appear. The author tried to reach her goal asking children between seven and thirteen years old. To this end, she's going to appeal to test built by herself from the examples given by scientific methods in their representation of parents and relatives Louisa Duss stories did help a lot so did Murray’s photos. Thus, there is two parts in this work; the first one dealing with ethnology, in which the author compares the old day's matriarchal family structure in Kongo with its nowadays become. The second part is a clinical analysis in which can be found the tests that helped the interviewer in her work with the children, as well as can be found data from which the new images of the father and the uncle come out. At the end, the author found out results in relationship with the sociological-cultural evolution, among others: first, of all the occultation of the uncle by the father; second, the negative vision of the father in disunited families; third, the affiliation awareness to the father. The author found out some more unexpected result like the set back of the idea of line of descendants and at last, the growth of the tension in cases of polygamy in which the image of the father create conflicts. Regarding to the data processing, the author used the statistic method of square number and factorial analysis using computer

Full textOur thesis is entitled: "Traditional discourse on disease and death among the Kongo Niari: ethical questions, theological confrontation". The expectations of Christian populations on issues of healing allow us to catch attempts to reconstruct the imaginary around a mythical reading of the Bible within the conflict between tradition and modernity. When the latter takes place, it is an invitation to reflect on inculturation in the symbolic modern African universe. The objective is to move from one mythical reading to a hermeneutic dynamic reading, which affirms the similarities between the bible and cultures, but which poses disruptions which occur when the word of god is addressed to any culture. The universal Church is invited to re-read about its origins, its tradition. Salvation in Jesus Christ brings to completion all the expectations written at the heart of the history of each people. God's salvation in Jesus Christ took flesh in the historical context of men, but it still comes from above. It also depends on the cross. The latter is interpreted in the Kongo and more generally African context, governed by the power of the sorcerer, as an emergence of humanity in which relations between men are no longer controlled by the balance of power or by the manipulation of mystical forces, but by salvation, resurrection and superabundance of life which give different healings. The proclamation of salvation brought by Christ, dead and risen, calls us to find more appropriate ways to tell the solidarity of the Savior with the poor, the sick

Full textThe detailed structural analysis of a corpus of traditional games played by Congo Brazzaville "Ndzebi" children allowed, by observations, by the study of game structure modelling and by semi directive interviews, to show characteristic traits, and social and cultural signification of the "Ndzebi" society. Their proximity with their natural and cultural environment from which they take out material to make game objects (object relationship) ; the existence of two parallel institutions "the men home" which is strictly forbidden to women and reserved for usual initiation and boys socialization by games. "The family kitchen" reserved for girl education, for mother and women life of the village is the community life basis. Men and women place, social compromise, in spite of the social relation dissymetric structure ; the birthright, the non subjection odf standards in these practices and their evolution in ritual characterize by motor action, identity and vestiges of game activities. Comparatively with institutionalized games, this other dissymetrical model reflects a difference with western societies which are based on equal opportunities - the symmetrical democartic model. Moreover, one notices a perceptible evolution towards this civilizational model, which tends towards custom cultural mixing. This close relation between game characteristics and local culture straits works towards the interpretation of reality in the "Ndzeba" child accomplishment by games

Full textThrough our research and clinical work we observed two phenomena concerning of pain treatment, among the Central African bakongo populations. The first one is the symptom insistance (and its "truth"), that causes the bakongos no longer to believe in the traditional power of the nganga (healer magician) but to prefer now to turn to prayer, the priest or the pastor, in a kind of "call to the father" made as part of the movement Christianization of this society. The second observable phenomenon is the child being cast in the role of ndoki (evil power wizard). What should be notced in these African societies is an invented guilt structure where it is the child who bears the family guilt. This African child "cause" of the family misfortune thus becomes the origin of its redemption. In these studies, our work consisted of an attempt to show how the ndoki child (evil power wizard) is transformed into the child martyr, in these African societies

Full textIn all human societies, there are men and women who are chosen or elected to take care of the physical, psychic and spiritual well-being of the others. They are called traditionel healers, traditional practitioners, traditional doctors or nganga in some Bantu languages in Africa. This work looked at these health and wellness professionals in one of Congo's ethnic groups - Brazzaville, the Likouala ethnic group. We conducted a survey of them using an appropriate methodology, that of the IPA - Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. The result is that the traditionel healers perform three fundamental functions : divinatory function, therapeutic function and mediating function. Indeed, the particular aspect of the management of consultants is that of their relationship with the spirits of ancestors. Moreover, they use this clinical pratice to rearrange the relationship between the world of human beings and that of spirits

Full textThe object of our research is to observe the change which takes place in the Kongo’s fatherhood. The life of migrants in France is one of the situations which testify of these fathers’ reality. The sample of population is made of people coming from a mother bared society in Congo Brazzaville. These fathers currently live in a context in which they are confronted to the practice of a second culture, different from the first one. Adjustments prove to be necessary, in particular on the level of the three axes of the fatherhood (exercise, experience and practice). Collecting and analyzing the narratives which show their positioning with their children make it possible to locate the capacities of the fathers to establish bonds with the last subjective experience of their own childhood or other events of their history marked by separations particularly the migratory event. Theoretical approaches turned towards anthropology, interculturaly and psychology adequately back up our study. The clinical, the thematic and the textual analysis of the data collected have enabled us to give an objective validity to our hypotheses
