From the introduction:
“Baka” is the second of a series in three books designed to project a vision of possibilities of meaning in what is loosely called “folklore”.

Perhaps the methodology of the book may be summed up in Sparrow’s significant comment to CLR James which James noted in “Party Politics in the West Indies”, known also as “P.N.M. Go Forward.” With slight emendation, Sparrow’s thoughts may be spelled out as follows: “If the words are wrong then the music is wrong. If the music is wrong then the words are wrong.”
