Writing a paper of the like kind as this is not an easy task.


Writing a paper of the like kind as this is not an easy task. Sanyal has managed to give a balanced analysis of the theme of modernism and the cultural identity at Makerere. His analysis of Trowell's teaching philosophy in relation to Todd's drawings challenges everyone to think about this ongoing debate about modernism and cultural identity and to evaluate its relevance to us today. While this paper might lead to more debates dealing with solutions to the puzzles of cultural identity, with time The Uganda Martyrs cast will be seen as an independent artwork not associated with any single cultural attachment.
