In den WarenkorbSoft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. First paperback edition. 21.5 × 14cm, 437pp. Signed and dedicated by Ioan (Lewis) to the half-title page. This volume offers a comprehensive overview of scholarship on Somalia and Somali land, one that transcends the usual boundaries and presents readers with a timely, incisive and co…mpelling introduction to Somali culture, history and politics. Topics covered include: history, including the impact of the two colonial powers (Britain and Italy); the Somali poetic heritage and its relation to politics; the variations within Somali culture between northern/pastoral and southern/agro-pastoral populations; the question of the significance of clanship, including its relation to livestock trading networks, and the Somali 'total genealogy' and its origin; the political future since the breakdown of the centralised state; and, the role of the Somali Diaspora. There are chapters on the 'spirit possession cults', and on the Somali language, names and kinship terms. An introduction describes I.M. Lewis' career and discusses the legacy of over fifty years of his scholarship, assessing its impact on Somali society's view of itself and that of the wider academic and policy communities. Condition: This copy is in very good condition. Signed by notable previous own.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - I. M. Lewis, anthropologist and historian, is widely considered to be the greatest researcher to chart the origins and development of Somalia. In this volume, established and emerging scholars review Lewis's work, along with the findings of others, and advance new, groundbreaking methods and unprece…dented topics. Contributors tackle the impact of colonial powers, such as Britain and Italy; Somali poetic heritage and its relationship with politics; variations between northern/pastoral and southern/agropastoral populations within Somali culture; the significance of clanship, including its influence on livestock trading networks; the origin and nature of Somali 'total genealogy'; the political future of the country following the breakdown of the centralized state; and the role of the Somali diaspora. Chapters explain 'spirit possession cults,' the study of which Lewis helped to establish, and the intricacies of Somali language, names, and terms of kinship. A thorough introduction details the trajectory of Lewis's career and the extent of his legacy after five decades of scholarship.
