- W2105764269 abstract "In this study, the researcher investigated the functions, themes and the performance of the Bamasaba oral narratives and cultural songs. The researcher did that because he wanted to establish how these two genres of Literature relate to each other. The intention of the researcher was to show why the two need to be given equal treatment by the Bamasaba. In this study, the researcher investigated how storytelling and singing of the cultural songs among the BaMasaaba affect each other, and why oral narratives are disappearing in that community, while the cultural songs are prospering. An additional aim of the study was to find out how the obstacles in promoting oral narratives and cultural songs can be addressed.The specific objectives of the study were: to find out the functions of both the oral narratives and cultural songs of BaMasaaba in Bududa District; the underlying themes in oral narratives and cultural songs of BaMasaaba; how oral narratives and cultural songs are performed, the reasons why the BaMasaaba cultural songs have prospered in that society more than the oral narratives, and what measures can be taken in order to revive the culture of storytelling among the BaMasaaba in Bududa District. According to the findings of the study, oral narratives are disappearing because with storytelling, there is no free eating and drinking of alcohol whereas with cultural songs, there is a lot of free eating and drinking of alcohol. With storytelling, drumming and dancing are usually limited but with cultural songs, there is a lot of drumming and dancing. With storytelling, usually there is no serious planning and organization whereas with Cultural Songs, the performances are highly planed and organized. Finally, the findings of the study have shown that oral narratives among the BaMasaaba can be revived and promoted by: setting up social centres, establishing special committees to organize sessions for storytelling, give awards to best storytellers, include storytelling on the schools’ curriculum, introduce storytelling in Universities as a career, provide employment to the best storytellers, carry out massive sensitization using media houses, storytelling should be made a condition for people who want to join politics, publish the best storytellers and their works, storytelling should not be confined at family level, storytellers should be facilitated and non-storytellers should be taxed. These findings address the reseacher’s concern about which measures can be taken in order to revive and promote oral narratives among the BaMasaaba.
