Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C'était la Nouvelle-Calédonie est le témoignage de deux années et demie passées dans ce pays des Antipodes de mars 1952 à août 1954 -. Une fois le baccalauréat passé, Cassilde Tournebize enseigna pendant près de deux ans à l'école primaire de Païta, gros bourg situé à trente kilomètres de Nouméa, sur la côte Ouest. Elle apprit à connaître ce pays si attachant et ses habitants accueillants et généreux. La Nouvelle-Calédonie, à l'époque, était encore un pays neuf, d'une beauté sauvage, une sorte de Far-West où les relations humaines comptaient. Elle eut l'occasion de faire le tour de l'île et de découvrir la vie menée par les colons de l'intérieur et celle des grands propriétaires terriens sur leur ferme d'élevage ou stockfarm. Au bout de deux ans et demi de séjour, elle partit pour la France afin de poursuivre ses études et c'est le coeur gros qu'elle quitta cette île à laquelle elle s'était attachée.

Book Synopsis Jean Vanmai’s Chân Đăng The Tonkinese of Caledonia in the colonial era by : Tess Do
Download or read book Jean Vanmai’s Chân Đăng The Tonkinese of Caledonia in the colonial era written by Tess Do and published by UTS ePRESS. This book was released on 2022-07-20 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean Vanmai’s Chân Đăng The Tonkinese of Caledonia in the colonial era is a rare insider’s account of the life experiences of Chân Đăng, the Vietnamese indentured workers who were brought from Tonkin to work in the New Caledonian nickel mines in the 1930s and 1940s, when both Indochina and New Caledonia were French colonies. Narrated from the unique perspective of a descendant of Chân Đăng, the novel offers a deep understanding of how Vietnamese migration, shaped by French colonialism and the indenture system, led to the implantation of the Vietnamese community in New Caledonia, in spite of the massive repatriation of the workers and their families to Vietnam in the 1960s. Through his writing which blends his own family story with the rich oral testimonies of his compatriots, Jean Vanmai, a passionate advocate for the recognition of the part played by the Chân Đăng in the New Caledonian national history, has succeeded in giving these often faceless and powerless ‘coolies’ a strong collective voice. The translation into English of that voice was long overdue. Only accessible until now to French speakers, this English version opens up the exceptional account of the personal and emotional complexities of the Chân Đăng’s experience to a global readership. The English version not only advances knowledge of the history of indentured labour and colonialism in the Asia-Pacific, thus offering Anglophone historians and interested readers a new understanding of the processes through which histories and memories travel and translate across national, oceanic, and linguistic borders, it also constitutes an invaluable historical resource for Anglophone Vietnamese diasporic communities. One of the significant revisions in this English version is the restitution of the diacritical marks to all the Vietnamese names in the novel. Rather than a simple correction of the printing of Vietnamese diacritics which was unavailable at the time of publication of the origin text, it lends greater authenticity to the story for the Anglophone reader and symbolically restores their full identity to the Chân Đăng protagonists, who had become mere matriculation numbers under the colonial indenture system. The critical introduction by Tess Do and Kathryn Lay-Chenchabi is a richly documented text that contextualises the novel for the Anglophone reader. The photographs and official documents, carefully selected from a wealth of sources, including the National Archives of both New Caledonia and New Zealand, the private community collections and Jean Vanmai’s family photo albums, all contribute to an illuminating and informative visual overview of the Chân Đăng’s working and living conditions in New Caledonia. This emotive illustration of the past also functions as an important reference for the common future shared by all Caledonians, in that it conveys to the reader the long-lasting imprint left by the Vietnamese community on New Caledonia’s economic and cultural scene since the Chân Đăng first migrated to this country more than two centuries ago.
Book Synopsis Jean-Marie Tjibaou, Kanak Witness to the World by : Eric Waddell
Download or read book Jean-Marie Tjibaou, Kanak Witness to the World written by Eric Waddell and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2008-09-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Marie Tjibaou is arguably the most important post–World War II Oceanic leader. His intellectual abilities, acute understanding of both Melanesian and European civilizations, stature as a statesman, commitment to nonviolence, and vision for Melanesia’s potential contributions to the global community have all contributed to the creation of a remarkable and enduring legacy. Until now, no substantial English-language study has existed of Tjibaou, who was assassinated in 1989. This intellectual biography of the Kanak (New Caledonia) leader takes an essentially chronological approach to his life—from his beginnings in the mountains of northern New Caledonia and his studies at the Sorbonne to his leadership of the independence movement in the Territory. The work focuses on the spiritual, cultural, and intellectual sources of Tjibaou’s ideas and actions as well as on those who were a source of inspiration to him. Particular attention is given to Tjibaou’s sense of service, the convergences and divergences he identified as existing between Melanesian and Western civilizations, and the impact of metropolitan French politics on the situation in the Territory. In addition, the book explores the fracture between the Grande Terre and the Loyalty Islands, one with deep historical roots that help explain why Tjibaou’s assassin, Djubelly Wéa, was not a "crazy fanatic" but the uh_product of a distinctive reality—with a very different cultural and political reading of New Caledonia’s destiny.

Book Synopsis Languages and Linguists by : Robert Henry Robins
Download or read book Languages and Linguists written by Robert Henry Robins and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 1997 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume contains the texts of interviews realized with three linguists: the late Andre-Georges Haudricourt (1911-1996), Henry M. Hoenigswald (born in 1915) and Robert H. Robins (born in 1921). The book has a twofold objective: on the one hand, its goal is to bring together a number of "inside" testimonies on fundamental issues in linguistics; on the other hand, it is intended to provide a personalized documentation which is particularly relevant for a historiography of linguistics that does not limit itself to published sources. The issues addressed in these interviews concern the status of linguistics (and more particularly the relationship between the study of languages and history), the fundamental aims of the study of language, and the scientific and humanitarian status of linguistics. The three interviews also shed light on the intellectual itinerary of the three linguists and on the developments which took place in the linguistic landscape during the past 65 years. The three interviews are supplemented with useful bibliographical notes. The preface informs about the state of the art in the "oral archiving" of linguistics.
