This volume contributes rich, new material to provide insights into
indigenous responses to the colonial empires of Great Britain
(South Africa, Swaziland, Botswana, Zimbabwe (Rhodesia)) and
Germany (Namibia) and explore the complex intellectual, cultural,
literary, and political borders and identities that emerged across
these spaces. Contributors include distinguished global scholars in
the field as well as exciting young scholars. The essays link
global-national-local forces in history by analysing how indigenous
elites not only interacted with colonial empires to absorb, adapt
and re-cast new ideas, forms of discourse, and social formations,
but also networked with "ordinary" people to forge new social,
ethnic, and political identities and viable social forces.
Translated and other primary texts in appendices add to the
insights.
