Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘We were married after three years at opposite ends of the world.... We then, too rapidly for comfort, made off in a snowstorm for the South Seas.... All this we imprudently did in our late forties.’ Thus Muriel Jones introduces her account, originally published in 1974, of how she came to start her married life in the Solomon Islands, ‘whose impact was traumatic, perhaps just because we were not in our first youth or innocent of other tropical experience’. ‘St Peter’s College was the only thing at Siota’; there was no store and the only post office on the island ‘was so difficult of access that I never visited it ... we ourselves did most of the postal business – quite informally – at our end of the island’. It is not surprising that even high-ranking visitors tended to arrive looking like ship-wrecked sailors. ‘If one was ill enough to see a doctor one was, on the whole, too ill to be subjected to several hours of sun or rain in an open boat and a probable night en route.’ There is, too, the account of the old lady whose family, on her death, wanted to bury her in a coffin instead of the customary mat. ‘Poor old lady; at the end of all these exertions, the coffin with her in it stood in the church for the funeral, uneasily supported on two rickety small tables from our sitting room, mutely exhorting us to STOW AWAY FROM BOILERS.’ Muriel Jones tells the unusual story of her five Melanesian years, of the impact of Christianity on a pagan people, of her husband’s college and its move to another island, of the students, the islands and their animals and exotic vegetation, of the islanders (nine-tenths of whom live in communities ranging from twenty to two hundred people) and of their changing way of life. Her story takes one about as far as it is possible to go from an urban civilisation and in telling it she reveals the resources of her own character.

The explorers were now mainly English, and they carried with them the anglo-saxon Puritanism for which all sexual customs that are unfamiliar are either Shocking or disgusting. Obscene was the word com monly used, and it was left to the reader's imagination to picture what that might mean. The sexual behaviour of savages seemed mostly unspeakable. The urethral sub incision practised by some Australian tribes was mysteri ously named the terrible rite. A similar mutilation Of the nose or ear, or anywhere a little higher up or a little lower down, would not have seemed terrible; but at that particular spot it aroused a shuddering and Shame faced awe.

Book Synopsis The Business of Marriage by : Richard A. Marksbury
Download or read book The Business of Marriage written by Richard A. Marksbury and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays represents a cross-cultural examination of the transformation of indigenous marriage patterns among South Pacific peoples in response to modernising forces such as colonial governments, urbanisation, the establishment of a cash economy, compulsory education and the changing roles of women. The essays explore societies in Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia. The field-work ranges from the study of bride-wealth inflation in the highlands of Papau, New Guinea - where contact with the Western world is quite recent - to marrying for resident visas in urban Fiji.
