Book excerpt: CHRISTCHURCH: A NOSTALGIC TRIBUTE is a remarkable photographic record of a city now so drastically changed, after the 2010 & 2011 earthquakes. When recently sorting through his photographic library, photographer, Peter Morath, realised that he had a 'time capsule' of images, many of which were taken in the 1990's. They show his "much loved City of Christchurch" in a colourful, retrospective light. Firstly, there are some pictures showing the earthquakes' devastation. Secondly, the collection steps back several years, with beautiful photos of once familiar scenes. Thirdly, there are images of Christchurch and surrounding Canterbury destinations - showing places and picturesque scenes of the vibrant city and region that we all love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Banks Peninsula When I began to compile the following collection of Peninsula narratives, I never for a moment thought that they would assume such dimensions as to warrant their being published in book form, and I merely wished to collect some information that might be interesting to the readers of the "Akaroa Mail," and also be of use to some future historian of New Zealand. Banks Peninsula is one of the few places in this Island that has a history, and many of the original settlers are passing away, so that it was desirable to procure their records without loss of time. It has been a most pleasing task, and the universal kindness and sympathy shown to me by all to whom I have gone for aid has been deeply felt by me. The Rev. J. W. Stack's Maori History is a most important part of the book, and no other European could possibly have collected so full and accurate an account. It was from papers in the possession of Mr. J. Aylmer and Mr A. I. McGregor that the story of Hempleman and his claims and diary was written. The description of the French Settlement was principally furnished by Mr Waeckerlie, one of the original settlers; and Mr. S. C. Farr wrote the Voyage of the Monarch. To Mrs, Brown I was indebted for much of the narrative of the Early Days, and Billy Simpson's tale was told by himself, Mr. G. J. Black gave most of the information regarding Robinson and Walker, but "Chips" was the narrator of his own autobiography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Going beyond strictly legal and property-oriented aspects of the restitution debate, restitution is considered as part of a larger set of processes of return that affect museums and collections, as well as notions of heritage and object status. Covering a range of case studies and a global geography, the authors aim to historicize and bring depth to contemporary debates in relation to both the return of material culture and human remains. Defined as contested holdings, differing museum collections ranging from fine arts to physical anthropology provide connections between the treatment and conceptualization of collections that generally occupy separate realms in the museum world.

Download or read book The French at Akaroa written by Thomas Lindsay Buick and published by . This book was released on 1928 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Lindsay Buick (1865-1938) became interested in New Zealand history while working as a political journalist in Wellington, and became an influential figure in the field. He went on to write twelve books and numerous pamphlets on the early history of the country and was elected a fellow of the Royal Historical Society in 1914. First published in Wellington in 1928, this work describes the history of Akaroa in the South Island, a small settlement on the Banks Peninsula founded by French settlers in 1840. In the same year, New Zealand became part of the British Empire, and much of Buick's account focuses on the interaction and disputes between the French and British settlers. The book, which was published under the auspices of the Board of Maori Ethnological Research, also includes the history of the local Maori tribes.

Download or read book Rethinking Invasion Ecologies from the Environmental Humanities written by Jodi Frawley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-24 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research from a humanist perspective has much to offer in interrogating the social and cultural ramifications of invasion ecologies. The impossibility of securing national boundaries against accidental transfer and the unpredictable climatic changes of our time have introduced new dimensions and hazards to this old issue. Written by a team of international scholars, this book allows us to rethink the impact on national, regional or local ecologies of the deliberate or accidental introduction of foreign species, plant and animal. Modern environmental approaches that treat nature with naïve realism or mobilize it as a moral absolute, unaware or unwilling to accept that it is informed by specific cultural and temporal values, are doomed to fail. Instead, this book shows that we need to understand the complex interactions of ecologies and societies in the past, present and future over the Anthropocene, in order to address problems of the global environmental crisis. It demonstrates how humanistic methods and disciplines can be used to bring fresh clarity and perspective on this long vexed aspect of environmental thought and practice. Students and researchers in environmental studies, invasion ecology, conservation biology, environmental ethics, environmental history and environmental policy will welcome this major contribution to environmental humanities.
