Excerpt: ... chapter vi missionary difficulties The wearisome period of detention was now over, and the Calypso sailed from Portsmouth on the 23rd of February 1796. Macaulay had looked forward with interest to associating with the band of Missionaries who were placed under his care; but companionship on a sea-voyage is said to be the safest existing criterion of character, and on this occasion the rule held good. He had been harassed, even before quitting Portsmouth, by their constant disputes among themselves and with the other passengers, but now, on better acquaintance with their dispositions, he began to feel serious anxiety as to the results of the.expedition. They had been chosen by Dr. Coke, who professed to have exercised great caution in the selection, and whose business in life consisted in the appointment and superintendence of the foreign Missions of the Wesleyan Methodists. He had incurred considerable personal danger in America by the open profession he made of his detestation of slavery; and his high reputation had induced the Directors to confide entirely in his discretion, and to leave the whole responsibility of choosing the Missionaries to him. Dr. Coke's character for discrimination, however, never recovered the blow as far as any of the Directors are concerned. Macaulay also discovered that Dr. Coke had charged the Missionaries privately with a letter from himself to the King of the Foulah nation, a letter which certainly was never intended to be seen by Macaulay's critical eyes, but which the Missionaries exhibited during the voyage with pardonable exultation. Whatever might be the impression intended to be produced upon the mind of a barbarous Chief, there could be no doubt that the language in which the letter was couched was...

Download or read book Zachary Macaulay 1768-1838 written by Iain Whyte and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prominent British anti-slavery campaigner, Zachary Macaulay devoted forty years of exhaustive research to combating what he called a “foul stain on the nation,” and his work was instrumental in laying the foundation for the abolition of slavery throughout the British Empire. With a focus on his unswerving commitment to the cause, this biography—the first of its kind—examines Macaulay's life and the people and events that influenced it. Zachary Macaulay 1768–1838 illustrates the man behind the writings—his passions and his prejudices, his shyness and steely resolve, and, above all, his willingness to work unremittingly in the background, generating the power to drive the engine of anti-slavery to victory.

Download or read book Macaulay and Son written by Catherine Hall and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2012-09-14 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Babington Macaulay's History of England was a phenomenal Victorian best-seller which shaped much more than the literary culture of the times: it defined a nation's sense of self, charting the rise of the British Isles to its triumph as a homogenous nation, a safeguard of the freedom of belief and expression, and a central world power. In this book Catherine Hall explores the emotional, intellectual, and political roots of Thomas Macaulay's vision of England, tracing the influence of his father's career as a colonial governor and drawing illuminating comparisons between the two men.

Book Synopsis Sara Baartman and the Hottentot Venus by : Clifton Crais
Download or read book Sara Baartman and the Hottentot Venus written by Clifton Crais and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Displayed on European stages from 1810 to 1815 as the Hottentot Venus, Sara Baartman was one of the most famous women of her day, and also one of the least known. As the Hottentot Venus, she was seen by Westerners as alluring and primitive, a reflection of their fears and suppressed desires. But who was Sara Baartman? Who was the woman who became the Hottentot Venus? Based on research and interviews that span three continents, Sara Baartman and the Hottentot Venus tells the entwined histories of an elusive life and a famous icon. In doing so, the book raises questions about the possibilities and limits of biography for understanding those who live between and among different cultures. In reconstructing Baartman's life, the book traverses the South African frontier and its genocidal violence, cosmopolitan Cape Town, the ending of the slave trade, the Industrial Revolution, the French Revolution, the Napoleonic Wars, London and Parisian high society, and the rise of racial science. The authors discuss the ramifications of discovering that when Baartman went to London, she was older than originally assumed, and they explore the enduring impact of the Hottentot Venus on ideas about women, race, and sexuality. The book concludes with the politics involved in returning Baartman's remains to her home country, and connects Baartman's story to her descendants in nineteenth- and twentieth-century South Africa. Sara Baartman and the Hottentot Venus offers the authoritative account of one woman's life and reinstates her to the full complexity of her history.
Book Synopsis Revolutions without Borders by : Janet Polasky
Download or read book Revolutions without Borders written by Janet Polasky and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nation-based histories cannot do justice to the rowdy, radical interchange of ideas around the Atlantic world during the tumultuous years from 1776 to 1804. National borders were powerless to restrict the flow of enticing new visions of human rights and universal freedom. This expansive history explores how the revolutionary ideas that spurred the American and French revolutions reverberated far and wide, connecting European, North American, African, and Caribbean peoples more closely than ever before. Historian Janet Polasky focuses on the eighteenth-century travelers who spread new notions of liberty and equality. It was an age of itinerant revolutionaries, she shows, who ignored borders and found allies with whom to imagine a borderless world. As paths crossed, ideas entangled. The author investigates these ideas and how they were disseminated long before the days of instant communications and social media or even an international postal system. Polasky analyzes the paper records—books, broadsides, journals, newspapers, novels, letters, and more—to follow the far-reaching trails of revolutionary zeal. What emerges clearly from rich historic records is that the dream of liberty among America’s founders was part of a much larger picture. It was a dream embraced throughout the far-flung regions of the Atlantic world.

Download or read book Macaulay and Son written by Catherine Hall and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " ... Explores the emothional, intellectual, and political roots of Zachary Macaulay, the leading abolitionalist, and his son Thomas's visions of race, nation and empire. The story moves from late eighteenth-century Scotland to the plantations of Jamaica, from the new colony of Sierra Leone to India, from Leeds and Edinburgh to London. The Macaulay family with its intense dynamics and complex relationships provides one thread while the politics of abolition, of reform, of empire and of history writing is another. The contrasting moments of evangelical humanitarianism and liberal imperialism are seen through the writings and careers of father and son."--P [2] of cover.
