Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'The Red Men of Nigeria' is a detailed ethnographic study based on James Rhodes Wilson-Haffenden's extended residence among the diverse tribes of Central Nigeria. The work primarily focuses on the Fulani people-often referred to as the 'Red Men'-as well as neighboring pagan communities, providing a rare window into their complex social and cultural landscapes during the early twentieth century.The author meticulously documents a wide array of tribal practices, ranging from pastoral traditions and nomadic habits to more striking customs such as headhunting. The narrative explores the spiritual lives of these peoples, detailing their religious beliefs and ritualistic behaviors with the eye of an attentive observer. Beyond simple observation, the book examines the intricate social structures that governed these communities, offering insights into their governance, kinship, and daily survival in the Nigerian interior.As a significant contribution to the study of West African societies, 'The Red Men of Nigeria' serves as an important historical record of cultural traditions and lifestyles that have undergone immense transformation.

Condición: Wie neu. 15 cm x 22 cm. Frontispiece, 318 pages. 22 illustrations, including frontispiece. Map for "The Red Men of Nigeria" at rear. Hardcover [publisher's original red cloth] with gilt lettering on spine. Blind tooling to front board edges. Maroon text-block trim. Very good condition with only minor signs of external wear. Includes, for example, the following: Nigeria / From Lagos to Bornu / Keffi / A Hausa Emirate / The Fulani and Their Cattle / Marriage and Family Conventions / The Kwottos, Igaras & Jukuns / Totems and Wer-Wolves / Animal Propitiation / Witch-Doctors & Medicine-Men / Love-Potions, Charms and Black Magic / Headhunting, Human Sacrifice and War Shrines / Wedding Rites and Domestic Life / Death, Burial and Eschatological Beliefs / Mourning and Resurrection Ceremonies etc. Writing in the aftermath of the Great War and the descent into barbarism across much of the European continent that the war precipitated, Wilson-Haffenden is not given to taking an overly superior tone with regards to his observations: "The performance of elaborate propitiatory gestures and prayers by a headhunter or an animal hunter over a corpse of his victim.tends perhaps at first to strike a European as not only indicative of a childish and unintelligent mentality, but even as showing a depraved and blasphemous religious viewpoint. On closer examination, however, I suggest that the above practices merely go to show how essentially similar to our own the native mind is. For it is in fact an easy matter to demonstrate that, given the reproduction of primitive conditions, many of us would, and indeed did but recently, react in response to analogous stimuli in a very similar manner to the native at the present day." (p.171-72) Foreword by Bronislaw Malinowski, Professor of Anthropology in the University of London. Malinowski (1884-1942) was one of the most important anthropologists of the 20th century who is widely recognized as a founder of social anthropology. (Encyclopedia Britannica) The book is a record of personal experiences and observations in Nigeria, and in particular, it contains an instalment of the author's contribution to the work of the Anthropological Department in the that Crown Dependency.…
