This multi-volume series is an indispensable research tool for
scholars working on the history and ethnography of the Zulu kingdom
and neighbouring states. James Stuart was an official in the Natal
colonial civil service in the 1890s and early years of the
twentieth century. In meticulously recorded interviews with
hundreds of informants, the great majority of them Africans, he
assembled a vast and unique collection of notes on the traditions
and customs of the Zulu and neighbouring peoples. Volume 5 contains
statements from another 40 of the informants whom Stuart
interviewed in the first quarter of the 20th century. Among the
most important of these are: Ngidi kaMcikaziswa, who gave Stuart a
great deal of information on the Zulu King Shaka from the
perspective of the Langeni, the people of Shaka's mother; Qalizwe,
who provided Stuart with a number of brief but fascinating
statements on prostitution and homosexuality among Africans in the
towns of Natal; and Pixley Seme, a founder of the South African
Native National Congress (later the ANC) in 1912, who was
interviewed by Stuart in London in 1925 on historical and social
issues.
