Excerpt: ...date than the introduction of the national gods, which appears to date from the time when the royal clans invaded the country and amalgamated the other clans. When it became known that the spirit had left the body, that is that death had taken place, wailing began, and part of this consisted in reciting the good deeds of the deceased, and in the widows recounting the gifts which they had received. The ghost was supposed to be in the vicinity of the body, to hear and understand what was said, and to be gratified by the eulogies. The ghost still retained the limited powers and possibilities of the living person, and could know only what was taking place in the locality in which it happened to be; hence relays of mourners kept up a constant cry in the house in which the body lay until burial. The mourners who were relieved from the task of lamentation left the house, and were allowed to enter into the most trivial and apparently thoughtless conversation or occupation in another building, because the ghost did not see or know what they were doing, and could not be affected by their levity or want of reverence. The elaborate proceedings in the ritual of funeral rites had in view the welfare of the ghost; so also had the relatives in making choice of a site for the grave, which had to be in the clan burial ground. The offerings also which were laid with the body in the grave were for the use and comfort of the ghost. The honour of having a son present at the funeral was great, but it was surpassed by the further presence of a grandchild. In the person of these descendants the ghost was assured of a continued remembrance and of its future welfare, which depended upon the living. For the future the ghost looked to the grave with a shrine near it...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking for adventure, Vilem Nemec traveled from Prague to Cairo. During his Twenty-Five Years in Africa, Vilem began to see life more like a native than a tourist. Unfamiliar with Arabic when he arrived, he struggled to learn it quickly, working menial jobs to support himself. Vilem not only learned to speak, read, and write Arabic, but he was able to communicate with tribal natives in many remote areas. His travels took him to remote places in Somalia, Abbyssinia, Sudan, and Sinai. Earning respect as a pharmacist and veterinarian, Vilem came into contact with many influential leaders. His memoir is peppered with rich, historical details explained from a firsthand observer and filled with stories of friends—German, Egyptian, Czech—from a woman running from an arranged marriage to a writer influencing Aida. Vilem's own adventures are no less exciting. Whether he's capturing a live caracal or wooing harem women, his stories present a vivid description of Twenty-Five Years in Africa from 1884 to 1910.

Download or read book An African Classical Age written by Christopher Ehret and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In An African Classical Age, Christopher Ehret brings to light 1,400 years of social and economic transformation across Africa from Uganda and Kenya in the north to Natal and the Cape in the south. The book offers a much-needed portrait of this region during a crucial period in which basic features of precolonial African societies and cultures emerged. Combining the most recent findings of archaeology and historical linguistics, the author demonstrates that, from 1000 B.C. through the fourth century A.D., eastern and southern African history was invigorated by technological change and intricately reshaped by the clash of distinctive cultures. Contrary to common presumption, he argues, Africans of this period were not isolated actors on their own historical stage, but direct and indirect participants in the major trends of contemporary world history, such as the Iron Age and the first great rise of long-distance commercial enterprise. In telling their important story, Ehret shows how powerful yet delicate a tool language evidence can be in detecting both the details and the long-term contours of the past. The culmination of twenty-five years of research, this sweeping historical survey fundamentally challenges how we view the place not only of eastern and southern Africa, but of Africa as a whole, in the early eras of world history. Now available in paperback, An African Classical Age has become an essential resource for scholars of linguistics, archaeology, world history, and African studies.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the product of a conference on the theme 'Development - the Next Twenty-five Years' which the Institute of Social Studies held in Decem ber 1977 to mark its own twenty-fifth anniversaryas a centre of development studies. We felt it appropriate at that point in time to caU together specialists from all over the world in an attempt to assess the 'state of play' in our field as we move into the last quarter of the twentieth century. 1 For several days, therefore, the Institute's new building house d a remarkable concentration of knowledge and experience concerning the problems of the so-calle d less developed countries, drawn from all over the world. Although it was inevitable that the participants should represent the past (and it was several times re marked that, in that sense, there were too few women present), the earnest and sometimes heated discussions looked to the future as much as to what had happened in the last twenty-five years. As the discussions proceeded, three things became apparent. Firstly , although the papers submitted did not fully reveal it, the ongoing debate between radicals and moderates, those who saw possibilities of change only basically through a direct break with existing structures and those who felt change possibIe within them, is by no means at an end.
