Translocal ‘Kinship’ Relations In Central African Politics Of The 19th Century
Kin-based groups are amongst the oldest informal and formal mutual protection associations known to man. This chapter focuses on the kinship networks operating at the state level in the great Lunda Commonwealth in Central Africa of the nineteenth century. It draws on an unusual source, namely the manuscripts and publications of Henrique Augusto Dias de Carvalho. They cover several thousand pages and provide extensive and detailed reports covering…
Translocality
The Extraordinary Journey of the Jaga Through the Centuries
The ancient kingdom of Angola, or more precisely Ndongo—which until 1671 essentially existed in the area north of the Kwanza River in presentday Angola—and the neighboring state of Kasanje, which was established by the Mbangala around 1630—belong to what is historiographically one of the more privileged areas of Africa, the history of which is documented by written sources extending back into the sixteenth century. These sources are even quite nu…
A lusofonia no interior da África Central na era pré-colonial. Um contributo para a sua história e compreensão na actualidade
A difusão da língua portuguesa em Angola, iniciada com a chegada dos portugueses no século XV, está estreitamente ligada ao comércio atlântico de escravos. Os principais impulsos dessa difusão partiram das cidades, feitorias e presídios portuguesas junto à costa e no hinterland. No entanto, atribuir as raízes históricas da actual lusofonia em Angola única e exclusivamente aos portugueses e ao seu domínio colonial, seria incorrer num erro grosseir…

References in the Humanities
It all seems so easy: our ideas of intellectual property, and the law of copyright and associated laws of protection bound up with them, demand references in adopting the writings, and even just the contents, of the works of others. In reality, it is obvious that the conditions and scientific rules of the game are less clear than is generally assumed. While usage regarding literal quotations is laid down precisely, ‘borrowings’ regarding contents…
Contested Power in Angola, 1840s to the Present
Ethnographic Appropriations
German voyages of ‘discovery’ and field research in that part of Africa which, politically or linguistically, has been subject to Portuguese influence in past centuries, and still is so—an area which therefore corresponds for the most part (and also sufficiently so) to present-day Angola—has so far received only sporadic attention in corresponding historical writings. Nor for the most part have they been taken into account as ethnographic sources…

“[D]as Wirkungsvolle wird gepflegt, die Gewissenhaftigkeit schwindet; an Stelle der Fähigkeit zu bergründen, der Kraft zu überzeugen, tritt die Sicherheìt im Behaupten.” [T]hat what impresses is cultivated, conscientiousness dwindles; the capability to explain, the power to convince are replaced by self-confidence in asserting. There is nothing more absurd—yet also nothing more common—than a scholarly lifetime of publishing based on materials to …

In Pursuit of a Chameleon
In recent years early photographs from Africa have increasingly attracted the attention of historians and ethnologists, as have those from other parts of the world for some time. It has been attempted to ascertain the general and specific circumstances which led to them being made and subsequently used. The multifarious problems raised by their interpretation have been discussed. Books and articles have been published in which historical photogra…

Translations as Sources for African History
Translations ought not to serve as sources for academic research. This precept is an ideal which has today become quite unattainable in many fields, notably in the natural sciences and medicine. In the human sciences it is still widely operative (at least tacitly), yet here too it is increasingly becoming Utopian. For any scholar of German literature, of course, command of the German language is (and, one hopes, will remain) an essential prerequi…
Written Sources and African History
The written sources for African history are scattered throughout the world, often in archives to which access is difficult. To reach them often requires a considerable expenditure of time and money, quite apart from the necessary linguistic knowledge. As a result, at least in the German-speaking world, much of the writing of African history and anthropology has for decades rested exclusively on published sources. Besides often leading to a seriou…

Historical Notes on the Kisama of Angola
Although the territory of the Kisama was involved in military conflicts with the Portuguese from the very beginning, because of its geographical situation it was not subjugated permanently until the twentieth century. A few chiefdoms, which are traceable through the centuries in the sources, played an important role (Ndemba, Kimone kia Songa, Kafushe Kambare, etc.). A number of different factors were favourable to the resistance of the Kisama. Th…

Oral Tradition
The golden rule of all scientific publication is that the reader must be in a position to be able to check the author's statements. The scientific level of existing publications of oral traditions is, as a rule, not very high. The ideal treatment of oral traditional materials by the historian may be considered as occurring in four main stages: 1. the collection of the traditions in the field 2. the creation of a primary souce with the pubhcation …
