Full textWith our thesis, we intend to lay out the linguistic and didactic foundations necessary for the future elaboration of a program or a method in Slavic intercomprehension by taking the example of the Western and the South-Western Slavic languages and in providing a linguistic analysis of three languages: Czech, Slovene and Croatian.In our work, we seek mainly to provide two elements:- A series of linguistic hypotheses aimed at determining the points to be taught in an intercomprehension method concerning Czech, Slovene and Croatian;- A presentation of programs and support in intercomprehension didactics realized and tested as part of our curriculum.In our work, we find that the didactics of Slavic intercomprehension differs in many ways from classical learning. In the case of intercomprehension, many points that are normally heavy and complex to master may be only passed through quickly.Thanks to our linguistical and didactical analyzes, we have been able to provide a reflection on one of the forms that Slavic intercomprehension formation can take in the future. We particularly recommend the use of online resources, for example via the website www.rozrazum.eu, developed as a part of this thesis to test activities following the methodology made for Eurom 5 (Bonvino et al., 2001). This website can initially be used as a test and development platform for didactical approaches, while being functional, and therefore available to a public of learners

Full textThis integrated literature review compiles past and present literature on the African Holocaust or Maafa to provide a more in-depth understanding of the unique sociopolitical narrative of the enslavement and oppression of Africans and African Americans for half a millennium in the United States. This study integrates historical data, theoretical literature, and clinical research to assess immediate and sequential impacts of the traumatization of the African Holocaust on enslaved and liberated Africans, African Americans, and their descendants. This investigation engages literature on trauma (Root, 1992), historical traumas (Duran, Duran, Brave Heart, & Yellow Horse-Davis, 1998), historical unresolved grief (Brave Heart & DeBruyn, 1998), and multigenerational trauma transmission (Danieli, 1998) to explore claims of slavery and relentless oppression leaving a psychological and behavioral legacy behind to the contemporary African American community (Abdullah, Kali, & Sheppard, 1995; Akbar, 1996; Leary, 2001, 2005; Poussaint & Alexander, 2000; B. L. Richardson & Wade, 1999). By and large, this study provides a comprehensive exploration and critical examination of Leary’s (2005) Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome theory (PTSS), which suggests that the traumatization of slavery and continued oppression (i.e., racism, discrimination, and marginalization) endured by enslaved Africans in the United States and their descendants over successive centuries has brought about a psychological and behavioral syndrome prevalent amongst 21st century African Americans. Findings from the critical analysis revealed that in addition to inheriting legacies of trauma from their enslaved and oppressed African ancestors, contemporary African Americans may have also inherited legacies of healing that have manifested as survival, strength, spirituality, perseverance, vitality, dynamism, and resiliency. Clinical implications from this research underscored the importance of not pathologizing present generations of African Americans for their attempts to cope with and adapt to perpetually oppressive environmental circumstances. Further quantitative and qualitative research that directly tests the applicability of PTSS within the African American community is needed to better grasp the representational generalizability of PTSS. Lastly, rather than focus on the repeated victimization of African Americans, the findings from this study suggest that future research should focus on the mental sickness of African Americans' oppressors in addition to identifying and delineating intergenerational legacies of survival, resilience, transcendence, and healing birthed out of the historical trauma of slavery.

Full textIn 1888, eighty years after Britain ended its oceanic slave trade, a British warship liberated a consignment of Oromo child slaves in the Red Sea and took them to Aden. A year later, a further group of liberated Oromo slave children joined them at a Free Church of Scotland mission at Sheikh Othman, just north of Aden. When a number of the children died within a short space of time, the missionaries had to decide on a healthier institution for their care. After medical treatment and a further year of recuperation, the missionaries shipped sixty-four Oromo children to Lovedale Institution in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. From 1890, Lovedale baptised the children into the Christian faith, taught them and trained them. By 1910, approximately one third had died, one third had settled in the Cape of Good Hope, one third had returned to Ethiopia and one had headed for the United States. The present study is a cohort-based, longitudinal prosopography of this group of Oromo slave children, based on the core documentation of the children’s own first passage accounts, supplemented by numerous and varied independent primary sources.

Resumo: Este trabalho visa estudar as concepções senhoriais sobre a alforria, nos anos entre 1855 e 1871 - um período de crescentes debates sobre a manumissão dos escravos - tomando para isso a então ascendente cidade de Campinas. Meu principal objetivo é compreender o pensamento dos indivíduos que, ao formularem seus testamentos, concediam a seus escravos a promessa de liberdade. Tendo por base os testamentos, pude verificar, pela análise da partilha dos bens e das doações ali anotadas, a política senhorial de manutenção da propriedade, as motivações e as estratégias que os senhores utilizavam para garantir a continuidade de seu poder sobre os herdeiros e os futuros libertos, bem como compreender a própria alforria no interior do universo da concessão de dádivas. A partir dessas premissas e da análise da documentação, reconstituí os perfis dos senhores de escravos que libertam escravos em testamento; verifiquei as modalidades de alforria que concediam; busquei compreender como eles pensavam seu próprio poder e averiguei as suas reações diante as mudanças que estavam ocorrendo na sociedade. Além disso, desenvolvi uma reflexão sobre as diversas abordagens existentes na bibliografia sobre os mecanismos sociais e simbólicos envolvidos nos atos de doação, considerando o conceito do "dom".
Abstract: The presented work aimed to study the slave master's conceptions about freedom within the years 1855 and 1871, as well a period of time in which there was a increase of debates about the liberty of the slaves - focusing the ascendant Campinas city. My main purpose was to understand the mind who promised freedom to their slaves and simutaneously had been formuling their own will. I have based my research on these documents, in which I could investigate them closely - analysing the way how properties and donations were divided and written down on these papers, the logic of the masters on maintenance of their wealth at the same time, as well what stimulated them and their strategies for guarantying of power - even after the death - over their heirs and the potential free people who have been slaving by them before. Thus, I have tried to understand the slave's freedom in this kind of giver mindedness. Hence, it is possible to construct the master profile who free their slaves in a deed and the categories of liberties granted, as well to go into a matter how they saw the power of themselves and which reactions had been happening on society on their days. I also have worked on many authors thinking who approched the social and simbolic mechanisms enrolled on the concept of gift.

Full textO presente trabalho tem como propósito rever o papel que tem sido atribuído ao vestuário no cotidiano dos escravos da cidade do Rio de Janeiro nos Oitocentos, introduzindo novos elementos para ampliar a compreensão de como escravos praticavam o vestir na experiência do cativeiro, tendo em vista duas funções do vestuário: alteração visual do corpo e meio de comunicação interpessoal. Essa investigação se desenvolve através de um exame crítico de fontes textuais e imagéticas, representações construídas acerca da aparência dos escravos observados através do olhar do outro, no qual a roupa é um fator significativo na caracterização da população negra e escrava. Na descrição da roupa, formas de vestir, associadas a demarcações sociais e culturas de origem, generalizam e estereotipam a visualidade de mulheres e homens negros, com a criação de tipos de alcance limitado, não condizente com o contexto social, cultural e econômico do Rio de Janeiro no século XIX. A tese percorre textos e imagens de relatos e narrativas de viajantes, fotografias e anúncios de fugas de escravos, dos quais podem ser extraídos elementos para um duplo e simultâneo intento: enxergar o escravo como objeto e como sujeito. Duas possibilidades de investigação que apontam para duas linhas de abordagem, a primeira relacionada a representações que mostram como seus autores observavam, apreendiam e interpretavam a existência cativa, e a segunda relacionada a possibilidades existentes utilizadas pelos escravos em busca de uma identidade própria com a criação de práticas no ato de vestir-se.
This work aims to review the role that has been attributed to the clothing in quotidian of the slaves of Rio de Janeiro in the nineteenth century, introducing new elements to broaden the understanding of how the slaves practiced dressing on the experience of captivity, in view of two clothing functions: visual change of the body and means of interpersonal communication. This research is developed through a critical examination of textual and image sources. Representations built on the appearance of slaves seen through the eyes of the other in which clothing is a significant factor in characterizing the black and the slave population. In the description of clothing, manners of dress, coupled with social distinctions and cultures of origin, generalize and stereotype the visibility of black men and women, with the creation of types of limited scope, inconsistent with the social, cultural and economic context of Rio de Janeiro in the nineteenth century. The thesis goes through texts and images and narrative reports of travelers, photos and advertisements of runaway slaves, of which elements can be extracted for a simultaneous dual purpose: to see the slave as object and as subject. Two possibilities of research pointing two different approaches, the first relates to the representations that show how the authors observed, assimilate and interpret the existence and the second related to captive possibilities used by slaves seeking their own identity by creating practices in the act of dressing up.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Over the past three decades in South Africa, the documentation of slave history at the Cape Colony by historians has burgeoned. Congruently, interest in the history of slavery has increased in South African letters and culture. Here, literature is often employed in order to imaginatively represent the subjective view-point and experiences of slaves, as official records contained in historiography and the archive often exclude such interiority. This thesis is a study of the representations of slave subjectivity in two novels: Rayda Jacobs’s The Slave Book (1998) and Unconfessed (2007) by Yvette Christiansë. Its task is to investigate and traverse the multitude of readings made possible in these literary representations, and then to challenge such readings by juxtaposing the representational strategies of the two novels. Both primary texts are works of historical fiction that, in different ways, draw on the archive and historiography in order to grant historical plausibility to their narratives. Engaging with the distinct methods with which they approach and interpret such historical information, I adopt the terms “glimpsing” and “reading sideways”. Throughout this study, I engage each of these methods in order to demonstrate the value, and limits, of each technique in its engagement with the complexities of representing slave subjectivity in the wake of its (predominant) occlusion from historical and official data. Chapter One presents a brief overview of the emergence of the slave past in historiography and public spaces. Following Pumla Gqola’s statement that “slave memory [has] increase[d] in visibility in post-apartheid South Africa”, I move to a discussion of the theoretical perspectives on (re)memory as employed by writers of fiction that exemplify “a higher, more fraught level of activity to the past than simply identifying and recording it ” (“Slaves” 8) . In turn, I identify the imperative archival silence places on authors to write about slaves, and the relevance of genre in this undertaking. Specifically, I consider the romantic and tragic historical fiction genres as they are utilised by Jacobs and Christiansë in approaching representations of slave subjectivity, and how this influences emplotment. Chapter One concludes with a brief exposition of the literary representations offered by Unconfessed and The Slave Book. Chapter Two presents a detailed study of Rayda Jacobs’s The Slave Book as a novel of historical fiction. Jacobs takes up a methodology of “glimpsing” at the slave past through the representations available in historiography. I trace the moments at which the text seeks to convey slave subjectivity, within and without historical discourses, through such “glimpses”, and show how they are employed to establish a focus on interiority and to humanise slave characters. Chapter Three focuses on Yvette Christiansë’s Unconfessed and explores its explicit engagement with silences surrounding the protagonist Sila van den Kaap’s historical presence in the Cape Town Archives. I read Christiansë’s representation of these silences as “acts of looking sideways” at the discursive practices inherent in the historical documentation of slave voices that enact her resistance to “filling” these silences with detailed narrative. I argue that the various forms of silence in the narrative allow for a deeper understanding of the injustices and oppression suffered by Sila van den Kaap, and that it is these silences, ironically, which grant her voice. Chapter Four presents a comparison of the novels and their respective representational techniques of “glimpsing” versus “looking sideways”. While the distinct efficacy and implication of each approach is critically evaluated, both are ultimately found to make an invaluable addition to the literary exploration of slave subjectivity as attention is drawn to the interiority of each text’s characters.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Oor die afgelope drie dekades, het die dokumentasie wat opgelewer is deur historici in Suid- Afrika met betrekking tot die slawe in die Kaapkolonie floreer. Ooreenstemmend, het belangstelling in die geskiedenis van die slawe in die gebied van kultuur en letterkunde toegeneem. In hierdie konteks, word literatuur dikwels in diens geneem om op ‘n verbeeldingsryke manier die subjektiewe standpunt en die bestaan van die slawe te verteenwoording, wat vroeër in amptelike rekords dikwels sodanige innerlikheid uitsluit. Hierdie tesis is 'n studie van die voorstellings van slaaf subjektiwiteit in twee romans: Rayda Jacobs se The Slave Book (1998) en Unconfessed (2007) deur Yvette Christiansë. Dit beoog verder om ondersoek in te stel na die menigte lesings in literêre voorstellings en sodanige lesings uit te daag deur die vergelyking van die twee betrokke tekste. Ek neem die "skramse” en "sywaartse" sienings as metodiek vir die eien en interpretasie van argief-materiaal in die twee tekste. Deurgaans in hierdie studie gebruik ek hierdie metodieke op hulle beurt ten einde die waarde van elke tegniek te demonstreer, in terme van die voorstellingshandeling wat elk gebruik om slaaf subjektiwiteit te verteenwoordig. In Hoofstuk Een, word teoretiese perspektiewe oor ‘herinnering’ soos dit bestaan as gevolg van, en ten spyte van, die argief, beskryf en ontleed. In my oorsig van die rol en doel van die argief sowel as die onthou van 'n slaaf verlede in die hedendaagse Suid-Afrika, word benaderings wat in verskeie velde onderneem is om slawerny en sy slagoffers uit te beeld, ook in ag geneem. Ek identifiseer die noodsaaklikheid wat “stiltes” in die argief op skrywers plaas om oor slawe te skryf, asook die relevansie van die genre in hierdie onderneming. Ek kyk spesifiek na die romantiese en historiese fiksie genres soos hulle deur Jacobs en Christiansë gebruik word in hul voorstellings van slaaf subjektiwiteit, en hoe dit voorstellingshandeling beïnvloed. Hoofstuk Een word afgesluit met 'n kort uiteensetting van die literêre voorstellings, soos uitgebeeld in The Slave Book en Unconfessed. Hoofstuk Twee is 'n ondersoek na die funksie van Rayda Jacobs se The Slave Book as 'n historiese fiksie-roman. Jacobs se roman bepeins die geskiedenis van slawerny deur die voorstellingshandeling van ‘n "skramse kyk”. Ek ondersoek die waarde van die romanse wat in die roman opgeneem word, sowel as Jacobs se gebruik van historiografie om haar verhaal te ondersteun. Hoofstuk Drie fokus op Yvette Christiansë se Unconfessed en die wyse waarop die slaaf karakter as protagonis die stiltes as gemarginaliseerde aan die leser kommunikeer, en daaropvolgend, die wyse waarop die historiese figuur, ten spyte van die stiltes in die argief, kommunikeer. Hierdie metodiek bestempel ek as die "sywaartse kyk". Ek argumenteer dat die stiltes in die roman ‘n leemte laat vir 'n dieper begrip van die onreg en onderdrukking wat deur die protagonis gely word, en dat, ironies genoeg, dit hierdie stiltes is wat aan haar ‘n “stem” gee. Hoofstuk Vier is 'n vergelyking tussen die romans en hul doeltreffendheid. Altwee tekste, van ewe belang nagaande die bevordering van subjektiwiteit van slawe tydens die Kaapkolonie, beslaan elk 'n ander benadering tot die argief en geskiedenis self. Dit is met hierdie perspektiewe waarmee hierdie studie omgaan. Beide tekste vorm ‘n waardevolle toevoeging tot die literêre verkenning van slaaf subjektiwiteit deurdat aandag op die innerlikheid van elke teks se protagoniste gevestig word. Verder, deurdat die tekste met historiografie en die argief omgaan, spreek hulle diskursiewe kwessies rakende slaaf subjektiwiteit en die voorstellings daarvan aan.

Full textCe mémoire examine l'incompatibilité, en littérature, de deux tendances simultanées dans l'histoire de l'Écosse au dix-huitième siècle, représentées, d'un côté, par l'usage figuratif de « l'esclavage » pour indiquer l'oppression des Écossais et, de l'autre, par le silence de l'Écosse au sujet de sa participation à l'esclavage colonial dans les plantations. Ces tendances contradictoires se concentrent sur l'entrée de l'Écosse dans la sphère du progrès social et économique suite à l'Union de 1707. Dans la version traditionnelle, cette entrée se fait au détriment des jacobites, qui sont tenus à l'écart du régime politique de la Grande-Bretagne moderne, puisque considérés comme inassimilables du fait de leur altérité et de leur retard culturels. Dans des relectures plus récentes, elle se fait aussi au détriment des esclaves dont le travail est le fondement du développement commercial britannique. Ce mémoire explore le soulèvement jacobite de 1745 à travers l'étude de quatre romans : Waverley de Walter Scott, dont le héros incarne la rejection du jacobitisme en faveur d'une identité britannique unie, Joseph Knight de James Robertson, qui met en parallèle esclavage et jacobitisme, ainsi que Kidnapped et Catriona de Robert Louis Stevenson, qui mêlent les deux tendances. Ce mémoire soutient que ces romans négocient l'histoire à la fois linguistiquement et spatialement. Tout d'abord, les jacobites sont intimement liés à un lieu spécifique, les Highlands, mais cet espace est également conçu comme un fossé ou « vide » linguistique. De plus, mettre en tension l'Écosse et la Jamaïque pose la question de la flexibilité sémantique de « l'esclavage ». Enfin, la fonction narrative du dialecte écossais est de résister la fixité des histoires qui ignorent l'esclavage ou, à l'inverse, l'incluent sans l'interroger.

Full textRunaway slave advertisements from the Virginia Gazette show the cultural makeup of slaves in eighteenth-century Virginia. I use these advertisements to illustrate the prevalence of vast inter-plantation webs of kin that pervaded plantation, county, and even state boundaries. Plantation records, on the other hand, are useful for tracking the development of extended families on a single plantation. William Massie's plantation Pharsalia, located in Nelson County, Virginia, is the focus of my study of intra-plantation webs of kin. Finally, I examine the years after the Civil War to illustrate that even under freedom, former slaves resorted to their extended families for support and survival.
