    Out of Africa

    Out of Africa

    Pocket in goede staat. Engelstalig.

    In 1914 Karen Blixen arrived in Kenya with her husband to run a coffee-farm. Instantly drawn to the land, she spent her happiest years there until the plantation failed. Karen Blixen was forced to return to Denmark in 1931 and it was there that she wrote this classic account of her experiences. A poignant farewell to her beloved farm, Out of Africa describes her strong friendships with the people of the area, her affection for the landscape and animals, and great love for the adventurer Denys Finch-Hatton. Written with astonishing clarity and an unsentimental intelligence, Out of Africa portrays a way of life that has disappeared for ever.

    Women of the Place

    Women of the Place

    Hardbook in goede staat. Ingenaaid. Geillustreerd. Lichte gebruikssporen aan voorplat. Engelstalig.

    Women of the Place is a study of gender relations in the kastom communities of South Pentecost, Vanuatu. It considers kastom in these communities not as an eternal tradition, but rather as a way of life, an identity in relation, and in resistance to the forces of European development. The way in which Christian missions, the labour trade, and the development of Western political institutions had a divergent impact on women and men is explored. The way in which this [is] related to [the] women's indigenous situation in the patterns of producing things and reproducing persons is analysed. The relations between persons and things is highlighted in an examination of the myths and rituals of the life-cycle and of grade-taking. The significance of this ritual and in particular the famous land dive is located in the context of colonial history, the impact of pacification on men. Finally, the author considers in more general terms kastom and gender in the post-colonial state.
