Book Synopsis Pākehā Settlements in a Māori World by : Ian Smith
Download or read book Pākehā Settlements in a Māori World written by Ian Smith and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pākehā Settlements in a Māori World offers a vivid account of early European experience in these islands, through material evidence offered by the archaeological record. As European exploration in the 1770s gave way to sealing, whaling and timber-felling, Pākehā visitors first became sojourners in small, remote camps, then settlers scattered around the coast. Over time, mission stations were established, alongside farms, businesses and industries, and eventually towns and government centres. Through these decades a small but growing Pākehā population lived within and alongside a Māori world, often interacting closely. This phase drew to a close in the 1850s, as the numbers of Pākehā began to exceed the Māori population, and the wars of the 1860s brought brutal transformation to the emerging society and its economy. Archaeologist Ian Smith tells the story of adaptation, change and continuity as two vastly different cultures learned to inhabit the same country. From the scant physical signs of first contact to the wealth of detail about daily life in established settlements, archaeological evidence amplifies the historical narrative. Glimpses of a world in the midst of turbulent change abound in this richly illustrated book. As the visual narrative makes clear, archaeology brings history into the present, making the past visible in the landscape around us and enabling an understanding of complex histories in the places we inhabit.

Book excerpt: Introducing general readers to New Zealand archaeology, Pakeha Settlements in a Maori World tells the story of the first European encounters with a new land. This is a fascinating approach to history through material culture, documenting a period of dramatic change in these South Pacific islands. From the scant physical signs of first contact including the early Cook voyages the history is traced through the ephemeral habitations of sojourning settlers to the settlements of missionaries and colonisers, and on to the towns and government establishments of the mid nineteenth century. While the focus is on Pakeha settlement, the encompassing Maori world is present throughout as the story of cultural encounter emerges from the archaeology narrative. Glimpses of a country in the midst of turbulent change abound in this richly illustrated book. Based on impeccable scholarship, this is a wonderful overview of New Zealand archaeology in the period.
Download or read book Old South written by Matthew Wright and published by Penguin Books. This book was released on 2009 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lively new illustrated history of the South Island by Matthew Wright, Old South tells a story of triumphs, tragedies and earnest hopes. It covers: early Maori-Pakeha conflict, the Wairau Affair, colonial settlement planned and unplanned, the Gold Rush, the growth of farming and the pastoral elite, and the development of towns and cities. Wright, a noted and prolific historian, paints a vibrant picture of mainland life from the 1840s. In particular he focuses on the rise and fall of the first privately founded Pakeha settlements with their hopeful framework of social idealism, business enterprise and religious conviction. As history shows, they were doomed before they began, overwhelmed by the developing southern frontier - a colourful, vigorous world of gold and wool, of social climbers, would-be aristocrats and ambitious ne'er-do-wells.

Book Synopsis The Coming of the Pakeha to Auckland Province by : John Horsman
Download or read book The Coming of the Pakeha to Auckland Province written by John Horsman and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coming of the pakeha to Auckland province traces, as the title suggests the development of pakeha settlement in the Province. The book falls into four sections. In the first John Horsman considers the period before New Zealand became part of the British Empire. This was the time when whalers, traders and missionaries made the first contact with the country and its people. In the second part the author shows that settlement was generally unorganised until the Maori Wars, when the Provincial and Central Governments took a greater part in encouraging immigration and settlement. Part 3 describes how Auckland grew and how settlement was extended to the more accessible areas of the Province. Mr Horsman deals with the twentieth century and the steady progress on both the rural and urban scene in Part 4. The highlight of the latter part of this period is the growth of Auckland City itself.

Book excerpt: The first book in a major two-volume general New Zealand history, now published in paperback. Along with its companion volume Paradise Reforged, this book has been hailed as redefining New Zealand history. Making Peoples is an account of how two huge, fertile, uninhabited Pacific islands became the focus of intensive human settlement, first by the Polynesians and then much later by the British. The book aims to cahllenge both Maori and Paheka' traditions and create a new interpretation of their self-images and their highly complex, often brutal interaction.
Book Synopsis The Meeting Place by : Vincent O'Malley
Download or read book The Meeting Place written by Vincent O'Malley and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An account focusing on the encounters between the Maori and Pakeha—or European settlers—and the process of mutual discovery from 1642 to around 1840, this New Zealand history book argues that both groups inhabited a middle ground in which neither could dictate the political, economic, or cultural rules of engagement. By looking at economic, religious, political, and sexual encounters, it offers a strikingly different picture to traditional accounts of imperial Pakeha power over a static, resistant Maori society. With fresh insights, this book examines why mostly beneficial interactions between these two cultures began to merge and the reasons for their subsequent demise after 1840.

A timely and perceptive memoir from award-winning author and academic Alison Jones. As questions of identity come to the fore once more in New Zealand, this frank and humane account of a life spent traversing Pākehā and Māori worlds offers important insights into our shared life on these islands.
