Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English,SWAHILI. About the Book:-The author reveals that there is probably no African language so widely known as the Swahili. It is understood along the coasts of Madagascar and Arabia; it is spoken by the Seedees in India, and is the trade language of a very large part of Central or Intertropical Africa. Zanzibar traders penetrate sometimes even to the western side of the continent, and they are in the constant habit of traversing more than half of it with their supplies of Indian and European goods. Throughout this immense district anyone really familiar with the Swahili language will generally be able to find someone who can understand him, and serve as an interpreter. This consideration makes it a point of the greatest importance to our Central African Mission that Swahili should be thoroughly examined and well learnt. For if the members of the Mission can go forth from Zanzibar, or, still better, can leave England already well acquainted with this language, and provided with books and translations adapted to their wants, they will carry with them a key that can unlock the secrets of an immense variety of strange dialects, whose very names are as yet unknown to them. The work, then, which is here begun is not to be regarded as though its utility were confined to the islands and the narrow strip of coast of which this language is the vernacular, but much rather as the broad foundation on which our labours in the far interior must for many years be built up. About the Author:-Edward Steere (1828 - 1882) was an English Anglican colonial Bishop in the 19th century. He was educated at London University and ordained in 1850. After curacies in Devon and Lincolnshire, he joined William Tozer (Bishop in Central Africa) on a mission to Nyasaland in 1863. He was appointed Bishop in Central Africa in 1874 and died on 26th August 1882. He spent several years in Zanzibar, 186468, 187274, and 187782. In 1873 he placed the foundation stone at Christ Church, Zanzibar, in Stone Town, Zanzibar. The cathedral was based on a vision of Edward Steere's who actively contributed to the design; its unique concrete roof shaped in an unusual barrel vault was Steere's idea. He also worked with David Livingstone to abolish slavery in Zanzibar. He is buried behind the altar in the church. Arthur Cornwallis Madan (18461917) was a British linguist and Anglican missionary who became famous for his research on African languages and his Swahili dictionaries. In 1880 he was sent to Zanzibar, where he learned Swahili and assisted Bishop Edward Steere in his language research and translation work. When Steere died in August 1882, Madan finished Steere's manuscript of a Swahili grammar until the end of the year.
