Word: intrinsic value Part of Speech: noun 1. The real value of something, calculated with regard to an inherent, objective measure, which may not take into account its market value or face value. Labels: countable, uncountable 2. Non-relational or non-instrumental value, or the value something has in itself, for its own sake, or as such. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: Let me start then, by distinguishing two concepts of intrinsic value. On the one hand, we have the notion of the value that an object has independently of all other objects— the value that an object has in itself. Philosophers sometimes try to get at this kind of value by suggesting that it is the value that an object would have even if it were the only thing existing in the universe. Although this suggestion is not without its difficulties, it points us towards the basic idea that value of this sort must depend solely upon the intrinsic — that is, roughly, nonrelational — properties of the object…This first notion of intrinsic value should be distinguished from a second concept, that of the value that an object has “as an end.” […] Example: Intrinsic value has traditionally been thought to lie at the heart of ethics. Philosophers use a number of terms to refer to such value. The intrinsic value of something is said to be the value that that thing has “in itself,” or “for its own sake,” or “as such,” or “in its own right.”
Word: imbongi Part of Speech: noun Etymology: Etymology tree Zulu in- Proto-Nguni *-bonga Zulu -bonga Proto-Bantu *-ì Zulu -i Zulu ímbongibor. Xhosa in- Proto-Nguni *-bonga Xhosa -bonga Xhosa -i Xhosa ímbongibor. English imbongi Borrowed from Zulu imbongi and Xhosa imbongi. The plural izimbongi is derived from Zulu, while iimbongi is from Xhosa. Pronunciation: /ɪmˈbɒŋɡi/, /ɪmˈbɔŋɡi/, /-ˈbɑŋ-/, /ɪmˈbɔːŋɡi/ 1. A praise singer, a traditional bard in Zulu culture. Labels: South-Africa Example: Let us consider the contemporary oral poetry of the Xhosa Bantu[…], and its highest form, the praise-poetry of male tradents, who were attached until recently to tribal chiefs. The tradents are imbongi ‘praise poets’ and the genre of their work is the izibongo ‘praise poem.’ “The lines of the imbongi’s oral izibongo do not display either syllabic or quantitative meter … though there is some reason to believe that one may be able to determine certain recurrent intonational patterns that function as meter” ([Jeff] Opland 1975: 194). Example: […] Mbutuma and Manisi are both "traditional" iimbongi, but Manisi's oral poetry is more historical than Mbutuma's – so that the bearer of a tradition is an individual creative artist even though he shares attributes with other participants in the tradition. […] Few Xhosa iimbongi today are untouched by urbanization, literacy, and exposure to mass media. How have these forces affected the tradition? To what extent can modern iimbongi be considered traditional?
