Book I Shall Not Die

    Book Details:
  • Author : James Belich
  • Publisher : Bridget Williams Books
  • Release : 2015-12-23
  • ISBN : 1927131197
  • Pages : 330 pages

Download or read book I Shall Not Die written by James Belich and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2015-12-23 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading historian James Belich presents Titokowaru, a Taranaki chief in the 1860s, as one of the great figures of New Zealand history. A leader in peace and war, he ran a stunning military campaign against colonial forces as he sought to save his people and their lands from European invasion. In a powerfully written, compelling book, Belich restores the image of a man who, after winning numerous victories and almost repelling colonial forces in 1868–69, was then ‘forgotten by Pākehā as a child forgets a nightmare’. A new introduction by Belich brings his 1989 work up to date.

Book Racial Crossings

  • Author : Damon Ieremia Salesa
  • Publisher : OUP Oxford
  • Release : 2011-05-19
  • ISBN : 0191619213
  • Pages : 320 pages

Download or read book Racial Crossings written by Damon Ieremia Salesa and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-05-19 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Victorians were fascinated with intersections between different races. Whether in sexual or domestic partnerships, in interracial children, racially diverse communities or societies, these 'racial crossings' were a lasting Victorian concern. But in an era of imperial expansion, when slavery was abolished, colonial wars were fought, and Britain itself was reformed, these concerns were more than academic. In both the British empire and imperial Britain, racial crossings shaped what people thought about race, the future, the past, and the conduct and possibilities of empire. Victorian fears of miscegenation and degeneration are well known; this study turns to apparently opposite ideas where racial crossing was seen as a means of improvement, a way of creating new societies, or a mode for furthering the rule of law and the kingdom of Heaven. Salesa explores how and why the preoccupation with racial crossings came to be so important, so varied, and so widely shared through the writings and experiences of a raft of participants: from Victorian politicians and writers, to philanthropists and scientists, to those at the razor's edge of empire - from soldiers, missionaries, and settlers, to 'natives', 'half-castes' and other colonized people. Anchored in the striking history of colonial New Zealand, where the colonial policy of 'racial amalgamation' sought to incorporate and intermarry settlers and New Zealand Maori, Racial Crossings examines colonial encounters, working closely with indigenous ideas and experiences, to put Victorian racial practice and thought into sharp, critical, relief.
