This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book attempts to discuss the situation of the Nubi Community in Eastern Africa, which is considered as a unique phenomenon in the region. Their history of migration goes back to the late 1823, during the Anglo-Egyptian colonial rule in Sudan. They were at first reflected as Slaves and recruited as soldiers, guards, and porters loyal to the British crown, and later enrolled in the British King’s African Rifles’ (KAR) battalions of East Africa to safe-guard the colonial interest, and these soldiers were known as “Sudanese askaries”, recognized as formidable warriors and most faithful. Indeed, their ancestors have originated from various tribes of Sudan, particularly from the territory of southern Sudan. They had amalgamated together, and in-ter-married with the native population in their new settlement areas, and in the process these natives have to adapt the Nubi’s culture. Consequently, they created a homogeneous tribal group named Nubi. This is how they multiplied themselves with dignity in east Africa, but without inherited homeland.

Book excerpt: Take a dazzling journey through time with Tim Power’s classic, Philip K. Dick Award-winning tale... “There have been other novels in the genre about time travel, but none with The Anubis Gates’ unique slant on the material, nor its bottomless well of inventiveness. It’s literally in a class by itself, a model for others to follow, and it's easy to see how it put Powers on the map.”—SF Reviews Brendan Doyle, a specialist in the work of the early-nineteenth century poet William Ashbless, reluctantly accepts an invitation from a millionaire to act as a guide to time-travelling tourists. But while attending a lecture given by Samuel Taylor Coleridge in 1810, he becomes marooned in Regency London, where dark and dangerous forces know about the gates in time. Caught up in the intrigue between rival bands of beggars, pursued by Egyptian sorcerers, and befriended by Coleridge, Doyle somehow survives and learns more about the mysterious Ashbless than he could ever have imagined possible...

Download or read book Anubis written by Ibrahium Koni and published by American Univ in Cairo Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Tuareg youth ventures into trackless desert on a life-threatening quest to find the father he remembers only as a shadow from his childhood, but the spirit world frustrates and tests his resolve. For a time, he is rewarded with the Eden of a lost oasis, but eventually, as new settlers crowd in, its destiny mimics the rise of human civilization. Over the sands and the years, the hero is pursued by a lover who matures into a sibyl-like priestess. The Libyan Tuareg author Ibrahim al-Koni, who has earned a reputation as a major figure in Arabic literature with his many novels and collections of short stories, has used Tuareg folklore about Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god of the underworld, to craft a novel that is both a lyrical evocation of the desert's beauty and a chilling narrative in which thirst, incest, patricide, animal metamorphosis, and human sacrifice are more than plot devices. The novel concludes with Tuareg sayings collected by the author in his search for the historical Anubis from matriarchs and sages during trips to Tuareg encampments, and from inscriptions in the ancient Tifinagh script in caves and on tattered manuscripts. In this novel, fantastic mythology becomes universal, specific, and modern.
