Clouds Gathering--No New Story--Boees Destroy Mission StaTions--Troubled Hearts. WE have now reached, in the life of the Kuruman mission, under Mr. Moifat, the twenty-ninth or thirtieth year, and the few years just passed had been those of almost uninterrupted tranquil prosperity; but now and for a little time previous to this date, 1848 and '49, there had been creeping into the horizon of its sky a cloud that threatened its future. This cloud grew out of the gradual, and bold encroachments of the Dutch farmers (Boers) upon the possessions of the natives. To us Americans it is no new story, but much the same as that of our own unjust dealings with the Indians. What, to those white men, were the rights of the native black pagans? And the government did not raise its hands to protect those who were of no profit to it; those who seemed even to be the property of any one who could capture them. Whose heart does not chill when reading of the slave trade of the African coasts? And many of the slaves there sold and shipped were stolen from interior tribes. As there was protection for these natives nowhere but in their own power, which was but small against a superior enemy, it came to pass that the Boers spread themselves all over the land, where they would, beyond the colony's possessions driving the rightful owners they cared not where; dispelling from their minds the little esteem for the whites the missionaries had been able to inspire. The Kuruman station itself, on accent of its situation and lack of some of the advantages possessed by other parts of the country, --possibly because it was the Lord's ground, --was never subject to an invasion, though several times threatened; but its work and influence in time were much restricted.

This book was released on 2024-07-26 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author aims to explore the impact of 19th-century translations of the Bible into indigenous languages, with a specific focus on the Setswana translation. The translations have had a profound effect on the religio-cultural practices of the indigenous people, leading to erosion and alteration of their traditions and identities. I argue that it is crucial to consider the translator's intentions and the associated literature, such as journals and letters, to understand the translation process comprehensively. The Setswana Bible was the first to be translated in Africa, and tracing the intentions of Robert Moffat, the first translator, is imperative to understanding the impact of the translation on the receptor culture. The methodology adopted is interdisciplinary, drawing from linguistics, African languages, history, English literature, cultural studies, black studies and theology. I analyse the impact of the 1840 Gospel of Luke in the context of Setswana culture in South Africa, and my findings demonstrate that translations cannot be distinct from the translator. To gain a deep understanding of the implications of such texts, I adopt a methodology that analyses significant historical literature and primary sources, including the records and works of The British and Foreign Bible Society, The History of the London Missionary Society, and the journals, letters and writings of missionaries such as Robert Moffat and John Campbell.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Defining their enterprise as more in the direction of poetics than of prosaics, the Comaroffs free themselves to analyze a vivid series of images and events as objects of analysis. These they mine for clues to the 19th-century contents of the British imagination and of Tswana minds. They are themselves imagining the imagination of others, and they do the job with characteristic aplomb....The first volume creates an appetite for the second."—Sally Falk Moore, American Anthropologist

Download or read book Dr Philip’s Empire written by Tim Keegan and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr John Philip towered over nineteenth-century South African history, championing the rights of indigenous people against the growing power of white supremacy, but today he is largely forgotten or misremembered. From the time he arrived in South Africa as superintendent of the London Missionary Society in 1819, Philip played a major role in the idealist and humanitarian campaigns of the day, fighting for the emancipation of slaves, protecting the Khoi against injustice, and opposing the dispossession of the Xhosa in the Eastern Cape. A fascinating picture of South Africa and the British Empire during a time of great change, Dr Philip’s Empire documents Philip’s encounters with Dutch colonists, English settlers and indigenous South Africans, his never-ending battles with fellow missionaries and colonial authorities, and his lobbying among the powerful for indigenous people’s civil rights. A controversial and influential figure, Philip was considered an interfering radical subversive by believers in white superiority, but he has been labelled a condescending, hypocritical ‘white liberal’ in a more modern age. This book seeks to revive him from these judgements and to recover the real man and his noble but doomed struggles for justice in the context of his times.

Download or read book The Scottish Empire written by Michael Fry and published by Birlinn Ltd. This book was released on 2002-02-01 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of Michael Fry's remarkable book charts the involvement of the Scots in the British empire from its earliest days to the end of the twentieth century. It is a tale of dramatic extremes and craggy characters and of a huge range of concerns - from education, evangelism and philanthropy to spying, swindling and drug running. Stories of Scottish regiments on the rampage, cannibalism and other atrocities are contrasted with the deeds of heroic pioneers such as David Livingstone and Mary Slessor. Above all it tells how the British empire came to be dominated and run by the Scots, and how it truly became a Scottish empire. As the empire transformed Scotland beyond recognition, so was the Empire shaped by the Scots - a remarkable achievement from the population of so small a country, which was itself neither nation nor fully province, neither fully colonizer nor fully colonized. Michael Fry's energetic and colourful account is one of the classics of modern Scottish history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the half century preceding imperial control approximately eight hundred Britons lived and travelled in East and Central Africa. Prelude to Imperialism (1965) examines their relations with and attitudes to African tribal societies. The author presents a broad survey of tribal life, an analysis of culture contact, and an extended discussion of the underlying assumptions of the British evaluation of Africans and of the conditions in which they lived. The description of African social conditions and the analysis of grass roots imperialism constitute important contributions to the debate on Western imperialism.
