David Livingstone rose from being a factory boy to become an
African explorer and a hero of the Victorian age. This volume of
essays, rich in new scholarship, tie in with an exhibition at the
National Museum of Scotland (beginning 23 November 2012) which
commemorate the 200th anniversary of his birth. The exhibition has
been produced in collaboration with authorities in Malawi -
Livingstone was the first European to document Malawi in the mid
1800s and he continues to be remembered there - and with the David
Livingstone Centre in his birthplace, Blantyre, in the west of
Scotland, which holds a wide range of his personal belongings and
travel aids. Together, the essays present a twenty-first-century
view of David Livingstone - the man, the myth and the legacy. They
engage not only with matters of history - his life and work as
explorer, doctor and missionary - but also with the ways in which
he has been memorialised, and his contemporary significance.
