T. Cullen Young was a Livingstonia missionary, who first set sail
for Malawi in 1904. Hw was influential in education, and the
Africanisation of the church. Later on, he developed an interest in
African languages, culture and history, writing prolifically on
these subjects, and may now be read as a documentalist of this
particular period of missionary history. Cullen Young's studies of
the Tumbuka for example, provided the first published record of the
ethnography and history of northern Malawi. This studies provides
an overview of the man and his work, placing the thinking of this
particular writer into historical and social context. It exploes
the oft-neglected areas of common interest between missionaries and
anthropologists. It comments on Cullen Young's historical,
educational and literary contributions, and his political concerns,
illustrating how Cullen Young's broader concerns with African
culture had political implications in the pre- and
post-independence eras. The biography further explores the
relationship between its subject and the young Hastings Kamuzu
Banda, and their subsequent collaborative work.
