Download or read book Robert Louis Stevenson’s Pacific Impressions written by Carla Manfredi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-11 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tackles photography’s role during Robert Louis Stevenson’s travels throughout the Pacific Island region and is the first study of his family’s previously unpublished photographs. Cutting across disciplinary boundaries, the book integrates photographs with letters, non-fiction, and poetry, and includes much unpublished material. The original readings of photographs and non-fiction highlight Stevenson’s engagement with colonial ideology and reality and advance new arguments about Victorian travel, settlement, and colonialisms in the Pacific. Like the Stevensons, the book moves from the Marquesas to the atolls of the Gilbert Islands in Micronesia; from the Kingdom of Hawai‘i’s political ambitions to Samoan plantations and the Stevensons’ settlement at Vailima. Central to this study is the notion that Pacific history and Pacific Island cultures matter to the interpretation of Stevenson's work, and a rigorous historical and cultural contextualization ensures that local details structure literary and photographic interpretation. The book’s historical grounding is key to its insightful conclusions regarding travel, settlement, photography, and colonialism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Anderson, Hamilton B. Hillyer, Mary E. Jacobson, David H. Swartz--there long-forgotten men and women are brought back into focus, along with thousands of others, in this comprehensive directory of nineteenth-century Texas photographers. It is the definitive reference source for libraries, students, scholars, and genealogists. Using censuses, city directories, newspapers, and other sources, the author has compiled a checklist of nearly 2,500 photographers working in the state during the years 1843-1900, when Texas went from a rough frontier to an oil-fueled colossus. Each entry in the alphabetical listing includes the photographer's name, biographical information, known dates and locations, and the source of this information. In a valuable introduction, the author discusses the history of photography and the story of its development and practice in Texas. Comprehensive indexes of locations and dates and of black, female, and foreign-born photographers are also included.--Cover.

Download or read book New Guinea written by Clive Moore and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2003-07-31 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Guinea, the world's largest tropical island, is a land of great contrasts, ranging from small glaciers on its highest peaks to broad mangrove swamps in its lowlands and hundreds of smaller islands and coral atolls along its coasts. Divided between two nations, the island and its neighboring archipelagos form Indonesia’s Papua Province (or Irian Jaya) and the independent nation of Papua New Guinea, both former European colonies. Most books on New Guinea have been guided by these and other divisions, separating east from west, prehistoric from historic, precontact from postcontact, colonial from postcolonial. This is the first work to consider New Guinea and its 40,000-year history in its entirety. The volume opens with a look at the Melanesian region and argues that interlocking exchange systems and associated human interchanges are the "invisible government" through which New Guinea societies operate. Succeeding chapters review the history of encounters between outsiders and New Guinea's populations. They consider the history of Malay involvement with New Guinea over the past two thousand years, demonstrating the extent to which west New Guinea in particular was incorporated into Malay trading and raiding networks prior to Western contact. The impact of colonial rule, economic and social change, World War II, decolonization, and independence are discussed in the final chapter.
