Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papuan Pictures Only two games as far as I have seen are the same as in England, and each year the time comes round when Whip tops are in season. The top is all wood, and the whip usually a piece Of fibrous bark that can be teased out into something like a cat-o'-nine-tails. The second game that would be familiar is the swing, but you cannot sit comfortably in it as you can in those at home. A length Of vine hangs from a slanting cocoanut palm, and on the bottom end is lashed a piece of stick T fashion, only the T Is the wrong way up, like this - l. Holding on to this Tyou swing as far as the length Of the vine will allow. If a tree can be found at the bend Of a river SO much the better, for then the fun is to start from one bank and drop Off on the other. If ever you have the chance to try this, be sure you take a good run to start with, or you may be left swinging over the river like the pendu lum Of a big clock, and have to be hauled back by the laughing onlookers, as I once was. As before the introduction Of schools the Papuan child spent most of his time in play, I think I had better give you more informa tion as to his games.

Book Photographing Papua

    Book Details:
  • Author : Max Quanchi
  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2009-03-26
  • ISBN : 1443806749
  • Pages : 370 pages

Download or read book Photographing Papua written by Max Quanchi and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographing Papua is a study of photography in the public domain in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It argues that southeastern New Guinea, known as British New Guinea and then as Papua when it became an Australian colony, was created as a geographical place through visual representation in illustrated magazines and newspapers, lavishly illustrated travelogues and mission hagiography, serial encyclopedia, lantern slides and postcards. Readers :knew" Papua because many thousands of black and white photographs of Papuans, villages and material culture rapidly swamped the reading public once the process of halftone, newsprint reproduction became possible. In an innovative and breakthrough fashion Photographing Papua switches attention from a few well known prints in museums and archives, in some cases repeatedly reproduced, but mostly rarely seen outside of scientific and scholarly circles. It deals instead with thousands of photographs, often used in ways not intended when the photograph was taken, but which editors and publishers (and subsequent photographers) gradually made conform to an iconographic imperative, a sort of abbreviated visual gallery of "natives" and a quick-access pathway to the actual and imagined lives of Papuans in the "last Unknown" as New Guinea was titled. It is a study of representation, colonialism, cross-cultural encounters and the early world of illustrated media and photo-journalism.

Book Laughing at Leviathan

    Book Details:
  • Author : Danilyn Rutherford
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2012-04
  • ISBN : 0226731987
  • Pages : 318 pages

Download or read book Laughing at Leviathan written by Danilyn Rutherford and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For West Papua and its people, the promise of sovereignty has never been realized, despite a long and fraught struggle for independence from Indonesia. In Laughing at Leviathan, Danilyn Rutherford examines this struggle through a series of interlocking essays that drive at the core meaning of sovereignty itself—how it is fueled, formed, and even thwarted by pivotal but often overlooked players: those that make up an audience. Whether these players are citizens, missionaries, competing governmental powers, nongovernmental organizations, or the international community at large, Rutherford shows how a complex interplay of various observers is key to the establishment and understanding of the sovereign nation-state. Drawing on a wide array of sources, from YouTube videos to Dutch propaganda to her own fieldwork observations, Rutherford draws the history of Indonesia, empire, and postcolonial nation-building into a powerful examination of performance and power. Ultimately she revises Thomas Hobbes, painting a picture of the Leviathan not as a coherent body but a fragmented one distributed across a wide range of both real and imagined spectators. In doing so, she offers an important new approach to the understanding of political struggle.

Book Intercultural Communication  Identity  and Social Movements in the Digital Age

Download or read book Intercultural Communication Identity and Social Movements in the Digital Age written by Margaret U. D'Silva and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the complex and multidimensional relationship between culture and social media, and its specific impact on issues of identity and social movements, in a globalized world. Contemporary cyber culture involves communication among people who are culturally, nationally, and linguistically similar or radically different. Social media becomes a space for mediated cultural information transfer which can either facilitate a vibrant public sphere or create cultural and social cleavages. Contributors of the book come from diverse cultural backgrounds to provide a comprehensive analysis of how these social media exchanges allow members of traditionally oppressed groups find their voices, cultivate communities, and construct their cultural identities in multiple ways. This book will be of great relevance to scholars and students working in the field of media and new media studies, intercultural communication, especially critical intercultural communication, and academics studying social identity and social movements.
