23. Reader Reviews the man is Burton the explorerauthor misadventure in the forbidden East african cityof lover, and later bitter rival, john hanning speke, forcibly circumcised http://vvv.com/~rowena/srfbr2.html

Reader Reviews Death Rides a Camel Review by Ron Dingman, June 21, 1999 If any one man can be said to embody within himself all of the variegated, frequently turbulent impulses and philosophical strains that characterized Victorian England, Captain Sir Richard Francis Burton is that man. Poet and ruffian, master linguist and master fencer, scholar and coarse prankster, military officer and rebel, spy for "John Company" (the British East India Company) and proto-anthropologist, explorer and consul, religious skeptic and earnest student of religions, vehement racist and bitter critic of his countrymen's disdain of foreign cultures, irrepressible bawd and sexual conservative, Burton is arguably the most complex, the most thoroughly "Victorian" figure next to Count Dracula. Indeed, in some respects, Dracula is a more believable character than Burton. Allen Edwardes' biography of Burton, Death Rides a Camel , is a good introduction to the complex series of dichotomies that comprise Burton's personality and legacy. Edwardes, who in his preface purports to show "the tragicomic life of Sir Richard Francis Burton in the nude without fig leaf, and without codpiece as well," is a fitting biographer for Burton, given their similarity of interests. Edwardes is also the author of The Jewel in the Lotus: A Historical Survey of the Sexual Culture of the East The Cradle of Erotica: A Study of Afro-Asian Sexual Expression and an Analysis of Erotic Freedom in Sexual Relationships (with Robert E.L. Masters, 1962)

Born: March 19, 1821 in Torquay, Devonshire, England Died: October 20, 1890 in Trieste, Austria-Hungary His penchant for exploring, his talent with language and his curiosity for foreign customs, particularly sexual ones, combined to make Sir Richard Francis Burton a fascinating man and writer, but one who often offended the Victorian sensibilities of his contemporaries. Burton, although born in England, was raised in numerous European towns and received an irregular education. He had a reputation as one of the best swordsmen in Europe, and was known for his experience with alcohol and prostitutes. By the time he entered the University of Oxford, he could already speak Italian, Greek and Latin, and continued on to learn Arabic on his own initiative. Although popular with his peers, Burton disliked England and was expelled from Oxford for a breach of conduct in 1842. At this point he joined the eighteenth regiment of the Bombay Native Infantry, where his proficiency with languages facilitated his rise through the ranks, and his acquisition of more than twelve additional languages. Over the years he became fluent in twenty-five languages and fifteen dialects. He worked in Sind, India for seven years, learning many native customs and eventually adopting several Islamic principles. Burton documented his experiences when he returned to England in 1846 after contracting cholera, but the books sold poorly, possibly due to their encyclopedic style. Burton introduced many issues foreign to Victorian England and emphasized that Western culture could learn the practices of others; however his writings on Eastern and African cultures could at times be quite disparaging.

Kigali is the capital of Rwanda. The country is dominated by a central plateau made up of steep mountains and deep valleys and has therefore received his subtitle "Land of thousand hills". The average elevation of the plateau is about 1.700 m. On the western side of the plateau you will find Rwanda's principal geographic feature; the famous Virunga chain of volcanoes which extends towards Congo and the Ugandan border. It's in the Virunga that one can find Rwanda's most important tourist attraction: the mountain gorillas! Rwanda has without doubt more to offer than the mountain gorillas. Here are the most important topics: Nyungwe National Park, is a Albertine rift montane rainforest and has recently received the status of National Park. The rainforest has a unique habitat and it's only there that we have seen troops of more than 300 colobus monkeys moving around in trees! It has 25 % of the African primates. Nyungwe is simply a primate nirvana! Rwanda has a rich history and culture. It was long time regarded as a mysterious kingdom with a legendary military force which was carefully bypassed by Arab traders and the great Nile Explorers. Rwanda together with Burundi and Tanzania was part of the German East African colony. After the First World War, it became a Belgian protectorate. It's at the National Museum of Butare, on your way to Nyungwe NP that you can find fascinating displays on the history and culture of one of the great pre-colonial kingdoms of East-Africa.

Sign in Search Community Gallery ... Sukuma Culture and Tanzania by Mark H.C. Bessire T he Sukuma culture is the largest in Tanzania. In many ways, the Sukuma are experiencing a renewed interest in traditional culture. Some think that the strength of this movement is found in the reconciliation of the modern and traditional. Cultural traditions appear to be spreading through contemporary means and not as a contest between the old and the new. Sukuma traditional arts and culture are thriving as much as the economic growth in the region. T anzania has accelerated its movement toward democracy, increased its communication networks, and opened its economy to the world. This has influenced the traditional culture of the Sukuma. While many Sukuma remain in small villages, others move to cities and assimilate to the urban society which is a combination of many different cultures and international influences. Possibly to renew awareness in Sukuma culture, identity and history, some people provide cultural leadership through a mix of traditional and modern culture. This movement reflects an increased interest in utamuduni or traditional culture, which lies in the dynamic social and political changes that are currently spreading through Usukuma. Today, a revival of Sukuma culture is taking place among traditional doctors, chiefs, artists, and dancers. A s the Tanzanian government has shifted from state controlled socialism to capitalism, it has created a more mobile work force and a diversification of employment opportunities. Many Sukuma are still farmers, merchants, builders and traditional doctors; but, in today's economy, there are also working in the communications, health, shipping, transportation, mining and banking sectors. Mwanza, the city center of Usukuma, is one of the largest and fastest growing urban areas in Tanzania. While most of Usukuma is rural and many live in the countryside, people throughout the country and central Africa are flocking to Mwanza to find work in one of the many emerging economic industries.

The rewriting drastically changed the original texts of the explorer John Hanning Speke's Journal of the Discovery of the Source of the Nile. Black people were described as urgently needing Christianity and European-style government. The 1863 bestseller helped inspire the colonial "scramble for Africa" of the next 40 years. Dr David Finkelstein, of Queen Margaret University College, Edinburgh, said yesterday that the book was "extremely influential in shaping Victorian attitudes to Africa and its people, as well as in providing political rationales for colonial expansion into the continent". The Edinburgh publisher John Blackwood commissioned the book but found the early chapters "written in such an abominable, childish, unintelligible way" that he brought in the ghost writer, historian John Hill Burton. [an error occurred while processing this directive] He extensively revised Speke's introduction, which had appealed to readers "to see and understand the negroes of Africa in their natural, primitive or native state".

With the exploits of Prince Henry the Navigator in the 1400s, Portugal was the first European country to go beyond the known limits of northern Africa, exploring the lower west coast and returning to Portugal with captured slaves and other riches. In 1442, the Portuguese began a trade that would not end until the 1800s; producing gold and slaves for the country. However, the Portuguese did not invent slavery. It dates back to the ancient Greeks keeping slaves, and Moses leading the Israelites out of bondage in Egypt. With the founding of the African Association in 1788, many of these white explorers traveled throughout Africa under the auspices of this and other respected associations. The most famous and enduring of these illustrious explorers was the internationally renowned David Livingstone whose activities in the deepest regions of the continent proved invaluable in the mapping of Africa’s interior. His most famous recorded meeting, after the outside world had received no news of his whereabouts and feared for his safety, came when he was found by the American journalist/explorer Henry M. Stanley, whose infamous words on meeting Livingstone, " Dr. Livingstone, I presume?,"

His girlfriend is hooked on merge, a drug used in "bacteria-style" sex. His father has just been swallowed by a hyperspatial anomaly that materialized from a piece of art designed to project images of four-dimensional objects into three-dimensional space. Then, at the funeral, Phil meets and falls in love with Yoke Starr-Mydol, a young lovely visiting from the Moon. Spurning Phil's advances, Yoke flies to the Polynesian island of Tonga, where she discovers an alien presence at the bottom of the sea. Calling themselves Metamartians, the aliens offer Yoke an alla, a handheld device that gives its owner the power of mind over matterwhich, it turns out, is pretty much like having a magic wand. But as Phil pursues Yoke, and the altruistic Metamartians distribute more allas, he begins to suspect that his father's disappearance and presumed death are linked to the aliens and their miraculous gift. For it seems that the allas are accompanied by a fourth-dimensional entity known as Om, a godlike being who's taken a special interest in humans. Now Phil and Yoke must solve the mystery of the Metamartians and their god, before humanity uses its newfound powers to destroy itself altogether.
