Download Decolonising Childhoods in Eastern Africa Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This book deconstructs Eurocentric narratives and showcases local voices to re-examine childhood in Eastern Africa. Moving away from portrayals of eastern African childhood as characterised by want, the author argues for a differentiated and pluralist nature of the eastern African childhood. Taking a chronological approach, the author provides a multidisciplinary critical reading of Africanist research on childhood in eastern Africa, drawing from anthropological and cultural studies, while examining writings from the pre-imperial and colonial periods. Moving into the contemporary period, the book reveals the continuity, tensions and ruptures of these portrayals in humanitarian, legal, and journalistic discourses, before exploring postcolonial writings on childhood in works by Eastern African novelists. Based on such a multidisciplinary perspective, this book will be of interest to scholars of African literature, eastern African history, critical childhood studies, museums and Africanist epistemologies.

Download Chaga Childhood Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This account of traditional education among the Chaga, a Bantu-speaking people of Tanzania, was one of the earliest studies of indigenous education. The first part of the book is an historical survey of existing literature on the subject in English, French and German; the second and main part of the book is a description of the informal education of the Chaga child in the family; the self-educative process in play group and age class; the formal training received during the rites leading up to circumcision, initiation and the preparation for marriage; and the changes in relationship between parents and children as they grow older, from the infant stage of biological dependence to the point at which the child fills the place occupied by the parent through descent, inheritance and succession. Psychological, anthropological, linguistic and pedagogical problems are discussed, including the development of speech during infancy, the extension of classificatory terms in the kinship group, the significance of the rites of development, and the differentiation of behaviour according to age, sex and rank of the children by means of taboos, punishments, songs and proverbs. The third part of the book offers practical conclusions from this study of indigenous education, in particular with regard to education policy, teaching methods and school organisation in Tropical Africa.

In this book we follow a British boy's childhood, from WWII Durban, South Africa, where he attends kindergarten and endures a bout of diphtheria, to his family's home on a coffee estate in colonial-era Tanganyika's Usumbara Mountains. Moving from city suburbs to East African jungle he experiences his first flight and first sea voyage, then has to adapt to a completely alien environment, one where snakes and other dangers lurk, there is no electricity, telephone, or other children for him to play with, and where he has to learn a new language. Sent to boarding school in Kenya at seven years old and later to schools in the UK, we hear about his friends and adventures during an unusual childhood. The tale concludes with a final visit to his African home and friends, and some coming-of-age teenage experiences. He leaves Africa, but in his heart, it will always be home.
