Download or read book Kuria English Dictionary written by Sammy M. Muniko and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Kuria-speaking people number about one million, with a homeland stretching from Kuria District in southwest Kenya through to North and South Mara in northern Tanzania. This is the first published dictionary of their language. It has been compiled especially with a view to its practical use, employing the standard Swahili orthography and avoiding complex grammatical notation. At the same time it is concerned to show the great richness of Kuria as a language which uses the full range of the common Bantu structural forms of verb and noun to express subtleties of meaning. It is intended partly as a record of the language and in this respect will be of use to comparative linguists. (A computerised version is available on disk.) It will be essential to anyone wishing to learn the Kuria language, including non-Kuria working in the area of Kenya and Tanzania where Kuria is spoken, but it should also be of interest to Kuria themselves, not least to Kuria school pupils looking for direct access to English through their own language. Sammy M. Muniko was born in Buirege, Kuria District, in 1946, trained as a teacher, and after some years as an Education Officer became Headmaster of St. Joseph Ntimaru Secondary School, a position he still holds. He has written school reading texts and advised nationally on the use of languages in schools. Benedict Muita oMagige was a teacher who made an extensive collection of Kuria proverbs, and owed much of his interest in Kuria traditional culture to his father, Joseph Magige oTatwa, of Renchoka, a former prominent chief. Ben died shortly after this dictionary was completed. Malcolm J. Ruel is an Oxford trained social anthropologist who compiled the original wordlist from which this dictionary has developed. He has written widely on Kuria culture and a collection of his essays on Kuria religion and related topics is shortly to be published by E. J. Brill. "

Download or read book Kenya Coast Handbook written by Jan Hoorweg and published by Lit Verlag. This book was released on 2000 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kenya Coast poses a development enigma in more than one way. Historically it was part of the Indian Ocean world and its economy. With the coming of colonial rule and later nationhood, the political and economic allegiances inevitably changed. Economic and political power shifted to the centre of Kenya. The coastal region is not richly endowed in natural resources but it has economic lynchpins in the port of Mombasa which serves Kenya and other East African countries, the tourism industry which has great potential and which flourished in previous decades but has recently shown a steep decline, and agriculture which so far serves mainly as a means of subsistence for large parts of the local population. Despite this potential the region finds itself in a marginal position. This book traces the causes behind this situation and analyses it from different angles - political, economical and social. Contributors from very different disciplines review resources, economy, people and history as well as the development potential and existing development limitations. The latter consist not only of infrastructural and human constraints but also of fragile coastal ecosystems, such as coral reefs, beaches and mangrove forests, that easily suffer from environmental degradation. This book is an indispensable tool for anyone with a professional interest in the East African Coast. The book contains 26 chapters divided over 6 sections: Introduction, General Background, People and History, Economic Resources, Human Resources, and Development Issues. The book also contains a large bibliography and statistical information.
