This book was released on 2013 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Aucune région au monde n'a connu une histoire aussi longue de la traite et de l'esclavage que l'Afrique orientale et l'océan Indien. Très loin des modèles simplificateurs du complexe atlantique, les sociétés de l'océan Indien ont éprouvé des modalités de traites et des situations serviles très diverses, dans lesquelles tous les systèmes esclavagistes, européens, orientaux et africains se sont mêlés. Les Africains et les Malgaches sont majoritaires parmi les esclaves, mais ils côtoient des compagnons d'infortune d'origines géographiques extrêmement variées, en particulier des Asiatiques. Les esclaves sont redistribués et vendus aux quatre coins de l'océan Indien mais aussi vers l'Atlantique, alors que se développent en Afrique de façon croissante les logiques serviles qui connaissent leur apogée à Zanzibar au XIXe siècle. Cet ouvrage complète magistralement une historiographie qui demeure largement dominée par les études sur l'Atlantique. Par le biais d'une approche globale, océanique comme continentale, il renouvelle en profondeur les questions de la traite et de l'esclavage ainsi que de leurs mutations complexes du XVe au XXIe siècle dans l'espace de l'Afrique orientale et de l'océan Indien. Il offre ainsi au public francophone une approche novatrice et percutante à partir d'études de cas originales et fouillées, menées par les meilleurs spécialistes de ces questions."--P. [4] of cover.

Download or read book Cultures citadines dans l'océan Indien occidental (XVIIIe - XXIe siècles) written by Faranirina V. Rajaonah and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2011 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le caractère cosmopolite des villes en fait des points d'observation privilégiée des sociétés pluriculturelles du carrefour de l'océan Indien occidental. De différentes disciplines, les auteurs étudient ici, sur le temps long (XVIIIe-XXIe siècles) et à partir de sources variées (écrites, orales et matérielles), les rencontres qui ont contribué à la formation de "cultures des franges" aux Mascareignes, à Madagascar, dans l'archipel des Comores, au Kenya, en Tanzanie, au Mozambique. Ainsi, l'aménagement des espaces de vie renvoie à des métissages entre des ressources de l'ici et de l'ailleurs : l'Occident ou d'autres horizons du monde indianocéanique. Des processus comparables d'hybridation sont encore perceptibles dans les domaines de la langue, de la musique, de la danse ou du politique dans des cités mieux connectées que les campagnes à l'étranger, volontiers associé à la modernité. Dans cet entrecroisement des cultures, la circulation ne se fait jamais dans un seul sens, même en situation coloniale. A l'occasion de ces échanges, certains individus et groupes sociaux, étrangers ou du cru, jouent le rôle de passeurs et contribuent au dynamisme de leurs cités. A côté des élites, des jeunes de divers milieux diffusent également les innovations. L'inventivité de la jeunesse peut d'ailleurs infléchir le cours de la politique. Grâce à ces intermédiaires, les cités renforcent leur statut de lieux de pouvoir. Mais, autres médiateurs, des gens de lettres dénoncent, à travers des romans et des poèmes, les dangers de la ville et la précarité des citadins les plus démunis. En effet, malgré des moments sous le signe de l'interculturalité ou du partage, ainsi lors de fêtes, les sociétés urbaines, traversées de multiples clivages, connaissent des tensions. En témoignent des conflits autour du contrôle des informations et de l'occupation des lieux de culte ou la concurrence entre les défenseurs des croyances du terroir et les prédicateurs des nouvelles Eglises. Mais les nouveautés sont aussi utilisées dans les stratégies personnelles comme ressources pour renégocier sa place au sein de la communauté et faire son chemin dans la complexité des mondes urbains.

Download or read book The Terrestrial Macroinvertebrates of the Sub-Antarctic Iles Kerguelen and Ile de la Possession written by Maurice Hulle and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sub-Antarctic islands are remote and isolated environments with original flora and fauna composed of a few species that are highly adapted to cold oceanic conditions. Their peculiar naturalness makes these ecosystems intrinsically fragile. This book focuses on terrestrial ecosystems and, in particular, on invertebrates - earthworms, mollusks, spiders and insects - that inhabit the French sub-Antarctic islands of the South Indian Ocean. All native and introduced species are presented in the form of individual fact sheets, which include the main identification criteria, geographical distribution and principal ecological traits. Numerous summary tables, distribution maps of introduced species, and a discussion on the originality and vulnerability of this fauna are also included. The Terrestrial Macroinvertebrates of the Sub-Antarctic Iles Kerguelen and Ile de la Possession is based on an expansive literature base, as well as on observations and photographs taken as part of a research program funded by the French Polar Institute Paul-Emile Victor (IPEV). The book also gives an important part to the history of the discoveries of the different species, as well as current conservation issues.

Download or read book Connectivity in Motion written by Burkhard Schnepel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This original collection brings islands to the fore in a growing body of scholarship on the Indian Ocean, examining them as hubs or points of convergence and divergence in a world of maritime movements and exchanges. Straddling history and anthropology and grounded in the framework of connectivity, the book tackles central themes such as smallness, translocality, and “the island factor.” It moves to the farthest reaches of the region, with a rich variety of case studies on the Swahili-Comorian world, the Maldives, Indonesia, and more. With remarkable breadth and cohesion, these essays capture the circulations of people, goods, rituals, sociocultural practices, and ideas that constitute the Indian Ocean world. Together, they take up “islandness” as an explicit empirical and methodological issue as few have done before.

Download or read book Madeleine's Children written by Sue Peabody and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1759 a baby girl was born to an impoverished family on the Indian subcontinent. Her parents pawned her into bondage as a way to survive famine. A Portuguese slaver sold the girl to a pious French spinster in Bengal, where she was baptized as Madeleine. Eventually she was taken to France byway of Ile de France (Mauritius), and from there to Ile Bourbon (Reunion), where she worked on the plantation of the Routier family and gave birth to three children: Maurice, Constance, and Furcy. Following the master''s death in 1787, Madame Routier registered Madeleine''s manumission, making herfree on paper and thus exempting the Routiers from paying the annual head tax on slaves. However, according to Madeleine''s children, she was never told that she was free. She continued to serve the widow Routier for another nineteen years, through the Revolution, France''s general emancipation of1794 (which the colonists of the Indian Ocean successfully repelled), the Napoleonic restoration of slavery, and British occupation of France''s Indian Ocean colonies. Not until the widow Routier died in 1808 did Madeleine learn of her freedom and that the Routier estate owed her nineteen years ofback wages. Madeleine tried to use the Routiers'' debt to negotiate for her son Furcy''s freedom from Joseph Lory, the Routiers'' son-in-law and heir, but Lory tricked the illiterate Madeleine into signing papers that, in essence, consigned Furcy to Lory as his slave for life.While Lory invested in slave smuggling and helped introduce sugar cultivation to Ile Bourbon, Furcy spent the next quarter century trying to obtain legal recognition of his free status as he moved from French Ile Bourbon to British Mauritius and then to Paris. His legal actions produced hundreds ofpages that permit reconstruction of the lives of Furcy and his family in astonishing detail. The Cour Royale de Paris, France''s highest court of appeal, finally ruled Furcy ne libre (freeborn) in 1843. Eight rare extant letters signed by Furcy over two decades tell in his own words how he understoodhis enslavement and freedom within these multiple legal jurisdictions and societies. France''s general emancipation of 1848 erased the distinction between slavery and freedom for all former slaves but the reaction of 1851 excluded them from citizenship. The struggle for justice, respect, and equalityfor former slaves and their descendants would not be realized within Furcy''s lifetime.The life stories of Madeleine and her three children are especially precious because, unlike scores of slave narratives published in the United States and England in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, no autobiographical narrative of a slave held by French-published or unpublished-exists. Thiswill be one of only a handful of modern biographies of enslaved people within France''s empire, in French or in English, and the only one to explore transformations in slavery and freedom in French colonies of the Indian Ocean. This story is also significant because of the legal arguments advanced inFurcy''s freedom suits between 1817 and 1843. Furcy''s lawyers argued that he was free by race (as the descendent of an Indian rather than an African mother) and also by Free Soil (the legal principle whereby any slave setting foot on French soil thereby became free, since Madeleine resided in Francebefore Furcy was born). Parallel debates surround the American case of Dred Scott, who began his long and unsuccessful bid for freedom in 1846 in the former French colonial city of St. Louis, Missouri, just three years after the French Cour Royale de Paris upheld Furcy''s freedom on the basis of FreeSoil. However, the French ruling that Furcy was free by Free Soil and the rejection of the racial argument offer a historical counterpoint to the infamous Taney opinion of 1857.The gripping story of Madeleine and her children is especially well-suited to exploring the developments of French colonization, plantation slavery, race, sugar cultivation, and abolitionism. A fluid narrative, it should have appeal for readers of the history of slavery, world history, Indian Oceanhistory, and French colonial history.
