This the fourth edition, was expanded and enlarged from the 3rd Ed. of 1848, with beautiful hand coloured plates, with eight by George Catlin. Prichard directs his profound researches to the diverse physical aspects characterised in all of the races of humankind, concluding that all human races are of one species and family, a precursory opinion for all modern ethnology. Covered in this seminal work are Egyptians, Semites, Chinese, Indians, Africans, Abyssinians, Malaysians, Indigenous North Americans, Eskimos and so forth. This historically important work, Along with Prichard's research into the physical history of humankind, constituted the cornerstone of anthropology in England.
Born into a Xhosa royal family around 1792 in South Africa, Jan Tzatzoe was destined to live in an era of profound change—one that witnessed the arrival and entrenchment of European colonialism. As a missionary, chief, and cultural intermediary on the eastern Cape frontier and in Cape Town and a traveler in Great Britain, Tzatzoe helped foster the merging of African and European worlds into a new South African reality. Yet, by the 1860s, despite his determined resistance, he was an oppressed subject of harsh British colonial rule. In this innovative, richly researched, and splendidly written biography, Roger S. Levine reclaims Tzatzoe's lost story and analyzes his contributions to, and experiences with, the turbulent colonial world to argue for the crucial role of Africans as agents of cultural and intellectual change.
The academic study of Indigenous Religions developed historically from missiological and anthropological sources, but little analysis has been devoted to this classification within departments of religious studies. Evaluating this assumption in the light of case studies drawn from Zimbabwe, Alaska and shamanic traditions, and in view of current debates over 'primitivism', James Cox mounts a defence for the scholarly use of the category 'Indigenous Religions'.
