Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Chalmers (1841-1901) was a Scottish-born missionary, active in New Guinea. In 1861, he joined the Glasgow City Mission as an evangelist. In 1866 Chalmers sailed in the missionary ship John Williams to Australia. After a stay of three months he left for the New Hebrides (now Vanuatu). In 1877 Chalmers had his desire for pioneering work fulfilled and was sent to New Guinea, then almost an unknown land. In 1885 Work and Adventure in New Guinea 1877 to 1885, written in collaboration with W. Wyatt Gill, was published in London. Then next appeared Adventures in New Guinea (1886) and Pioneering in New Guinea (1887) solely by Chalmers. During a year's leave in Great Britain in 1886-7, much interest in his work was generated. After Chalmers' return to New Guinea he did a great deal of exploring, and gained a detailed knowledge of much of the country and of the natives. He also published Pioneer Life and Work in New Guinea 1877- 1894 (1895), which contained a considerable amount of material from earlier books.

Book excerpt: "Chalmers, a Scot trained by the Lodon Missionary Society, served in New Guinea for twenty-four years, from 1877 to 1901. The early, taxing years at Suau were followed by a triumphant period at Port Moresby, where, as Tamate ('a King with great power'), he was deferred to by both black and white. But later, in the declining years of his life, when he was lonely, ill and depressed, Chalmers had to struggle almost single-handed to evangelize the swamp lands of the Papuan Gulf and the Fly River. The mysterious circumstances surrounding his death at Goaribari are discussed and the consequences of his death explored. Chalmers played a central role in the history of New Guinea at a particularly crucial time and much of the history of exploration, first contact, and the imposition of European culture, religion and government is reflected in his career."--Book jacket.

Download or read book Photographing Papua written by Max Quanchi and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographing Papua is a study of photography in the public domain in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It argues that southeastern New Guinea, known as British New Guinea and then as Papua when it became an Australian colony, was created as a geographical place through visual representation in illustrated magazines and newspapers, lavishly illustrated travelogues and mission hagiography, serial encyclopedia, lantern slides and postcards. Readers :knew" Papua because many thousands of black and white photographs of Papuans, villages and material culture rapidly swamped the reading public once the process of halftone, newsprint reproduction became possible. In an innovative and breakthrough fashion Photographing Papua switches attention from a few well known prints in museums and archives, in some cases repeatedly reproduced, but mostly rarely seen outside of scientific and scholarly circles. It deals instead with thousands of photographs, often used in ways not intended when the photograph was taken, but which editors and publishers (and subsequent photographers) gradually made conform to an iconographic imperative, a sort of abbreviated visual gallery of "natives" and a quick-access pathway to the actual and imagined lives of Papuans in the "last Unknown" as New Guinea was titled. It is a study of representation, colonialism, cross-cultural encounters and the early world of illustrated media and photo-journalism.

Download or read book South Coast New Guinea Cultures written by Bruce M. Knauft and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-03-25 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The communities of south coast New Guinea were the subject of classic ethnographies, and fresh studies in recent decades have put these rich and complex cultures at the centre of anthropological debates. Flamboyant sexual practices, such as ritual homosexuality, have attracted particular interest. In the first general book on the region, Dr Knauft reaches striking new comparative conclusions through a careful ethnographic analysis of sexuality, the status of women, ritual and cosmology, political economy, and violence among the region's seven major language-culture areas. The findings suggest new Melanesian regional contrasts and provide for a general critique of the way regional comparisons are constructed in anthropology. Theories of practice and political economy as well as post-modern insights are drawn upon to provide a generative theory of indigenous social and symbolic development.
