Download or read book Mirror of the Indies written by Robert Nieuwenhuys and published by Amherst : University of Massachusetts Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the definitive literary history of the colonial Dutch East Indies and is partially distinguished from its predecessors by its discussion of materials ranging from natural history and religious sermons to pamphlets and the accounts of travelers from the seventeenth through the twentieth centuries. What emerges from this comprehensive approach is an unusually thorough and sensitive account of the manifold encounters of the Dutch with the East Indian societies that they conquered, tried to understand, and, finally, had to relinquish under the inevitable pressures of change and the desire for independence. This history records how a hybrid literature emerges from that of the colonial culture to become a distinct literature of its own and why the concepts derived from European cultural history--such as baroque or neoclassicism--are totally inapplicable to the works discussed here.

Download or read book Race to the Snow written by Chris Ballard and published by Kit Pub. This book was released on 2001 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first collection of photographs -- many never previously published -- depicting the Dutch and British expeditions to South New Guinea between 1907 and 1936. When a seventeenth century report of snow-covered mountains in the interior of the tropical island of New Guinea was confirmed, the Dutch and British mounted expeditions in a race to reach them first. The authors chronicle the successes, heartbreaks and tragedies of the expeditions. The photographs depict the mountains, expedition members, and the Papuan people they encountered. It took until 1936 for a team led by Anton Colijn to finally make a successful ascent of Mt Carstensz, the highest peak in New Guinea. The encounters between the expeditions and the Papuan people living in the mountains were the first of their kind. The photographs were taken by the expeditions as a form of evidence of these first contacts. More recently, as the photographs have become available to these same Papuan communities, the range of interpretations of their meaning has expanded. For communities such as the Amungme, these photographs provide an important window into their past, and a new means of rethinking current issues. The photographs, together with Papuan and European narratives about the events of the expeditions, represent a history that is very much alive and working in the service of the present.

Download or read book Anceaux s Glasses written by Linda Roodenburg and published by Waanders Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1959 nam professor Anceaux, een bekend Nederlands taalkundige, deel aan de laatste Nederlandse expeditie naar het binnenland van Nieuw-Guinea. Anceaux gaf zijn bril aan een Papoea. Expeditieleider Brongersma maakte daar een foto van. Deze foto op de omslag van dit boek, kan opgevat worden als een symbool voor de westerse blik op andere culturen, maar ook hoe die anderen soms geamuseerd terugkeken. Vanaf het vroegste begin van de fotografie heeft het Rijksmuseum voor Volkenkunde te Leiden foto's van mensen en culturen uit de hele wereld verzameld. Ze zijn lang verborgen gebleven in de archieven. In dit boek is nu eindelijk een brede selectie uit de verzameling te zien: zeldzame beelden van niet meer bestaande of inmiddels grondig veranderde culturen. In bondige hoofdstukken schetst auteur en samensteller Linda Roodenburg, bijgestaan door vier gastauteurs, de omstandigheden waarin de opnamen gemaakt zijn. De koloniale verhoudingen, het antropologisch onderzoek, het exploiteren van exotische aantrekkingskracht, en de veranderende kijk op 'vreemde' volken. De tientallen paginagrote afbeeldingen spreken eigenlijk ook al voor zich zelf.

Download or read book Pieter Bruegel the Elder written by Pieter Bruegel and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2001 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1525/30-1569) was a remarkable draftsman and designer of prints as well as a great painter. His independent drawings and designs for engravings and etchings, which were carried out by the leading printmakers of his day, have fascinated scholars and the general public alike since they were created. They have recently been the subject of research that has given rise to a reevaluation of the parameters of Bruegel's oeuvre. The new scholarship has been brought to bear in the texts of the present volume, which accompanies a major exhibition of 140 of Bruegel's prints and drawings to be shown at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, from May to August 2001 and at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, from September to December 2001. An international group of experts discusses the new Bruegel who has emerged from recent studies, in essays on the artist's life, his contributions as a draftsman and as a printmaker, the survival of his art, and his relationship to the humanism of his day. They also illuminate his genius in entries on all the works in the exhibition. Every work is illustrated and rich comparative illustrations are included. Provenances an
