Book Synopsis German Memories in Asia by : Rajkumar Kanagasingam
Download or read book German Memories in Asia written by Rajkumar Kanagasingam and published by Author House. This book was released on 2007 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German Memories in Asia is a collection of memories by the author Rajkumar Kanagasingam, in his association with the German university students, who have been volunteering in Asia under an internship program. German Memories in Asia narrates the fascinating early human migration from Africa to the rest of the world and the sensitive issues of Asian and European historical events, especially the German, since the Roman Empire era and about the Germans in Latin America, North America, East European countries and elsewhere in the world and their migrations, life styles, encounters and assimilations since ancient times. It analyses the First and Second World War issues of Dresden Bombing, German POW crisis and more. It explores the author's encounters in his early days in the war-ravaged Jaffna Peninsula in the northern part of the Indian Ocean 's war-torn island and then as an officer in an American NGO in the jungles under the control of Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and then in a tsunami relief mission there with German students. The book is a memorable testimony for German students' life and fashion in Asia at their residency at the Aquarius Resorts in Marawila, a sleepy western coastal town of Sri Lanka facing the scenic Indian Ocean!

Book excerpt: This book offers a comparative view of nine historic separatist movements, some of which have achieved the break-up of an empire or a state, and others that to date have not.

Book Synopsis Pre-Historic Lanka to End of Terrorism by : Sripali Vaiamon
Download or read book Pre-Historic Lanka to End of Terrorism written by Sripali Vaiamon and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invaluable material culled during the past fifty- to sixty-years-plus unexplored research data and what acknowledged literati in the world expressed on obscure areas have gone into this publication. Any citizen in a civilized society should be familiar with the historical information, current and ancient, in one's own country and that of others. Here the author has emphasized more on Sri Lanka, where there was an abominable civil war for twenty-six years, massacring over 70,000 innocent civilians and devastating a good part of the country. Author has well exploited how and why such a holocaust originated and dragged on for such a long period, where the lawfully constituted government had to fight to safeguard the citizens of the country to a possible extent, within the international parameters of war with the most ruthless terrorist outfit of the world—LTTE. This compendium undoubtedly will provide meticulous information, wholesome inspiration, and great satisfaction to an avid reader.

Book Synopsis Slave in a Palanquin by : Nira Wickramasinghe
Download or read book Slave in a Palanquin written by Nira Wickramasinghe and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For hundreds of years, the island of Sri Lanka was a crucial stopover for people and goods in the Indian Ocean. For the Dutch East India Company, it was also a crossroads in the Indian Ocean slave trade. Slavery was present in multiple forms in Sri Lanka—then Ceylon—when the British conquered the island in the late eighteenth century and began to gradually abolish slavery. Yet the continued presence of enslaved people in Sri Lanka in the nineteenth century has practically vanished from collective memory in both the Sinhalese and Tamil communities. Nira Wickramasinghe uncovers the traces of slavery in the history and memory of the Indian Ocean world, exploring moments of revolt in the lives of enslaved people in the wake of abolition. She tells the stories of Wayreven, the slave who traveled in the palanquin of his master; Selestina, accused of killing her child; Rawothan, who sought permission for his son to be circumcised; and others, enslaved or emancipated, who challenged their status. Drawing on legal cases, petitions, and other colonial records to recover individual voices and quotidian moments, Wickramasinghe offers a meditation on the archive of slavery. She examines how color-based racial thinking gave way to more nuanced debates about identity, complicating conceptions of blackness and racialization. A deeply interdisciplinary book with a focus on recovering subaltern resistance, Slave in a Palanquin offers a vital new portrait of the local and transnational worlds of the colonial-era Asian slave trade in the Indian Ocean.
