African Voices on Slavery and the Slave Trade: Volume 1, The Sources
Author: Alice Bellagamba
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 110732808X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 587
Book Description
Though the history of slavery is a central topic for African, Atlantic world and world history, most of the sources presenting research in this area are European in origin. To cast light on African perspectives, and on the point of view of enslaved men and women, this group of top Africanist scholars has examined both conventional historical sources (such as European travel accounts, colonial documents, court cases, and missionary records) and less-explored sources of information (such as folklore, oral traditions, songs and proverbs, life histories collected by missionaries and colonial officials, correspondence in Arabic, and consular and admiralty interviews with runaway slaves). Each source has a short introduction highlighting its significance and orienting the reader. This first of two volumes provides students and scholars with a trove of African sources for studying African slavery and the slave trade.

Free People from Mental Slavery, Vol 1
Author: Paseka Mazibuko
Publisher: African Books Collective
ISBN: 1990988776
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
This book is based on a true story experienced by the author in his life. Paseka was apprehended and sentenced to three years imprisonment for a crime he did not commit. His legal proceeding was unfairly litigated. He was not assumed to be innocent until proven guilty; instead, he was found guilty based on hearsay prior to court proceedings. He was not given a chance to state his side of the story and his conviction negatively affected his life, profession and his occupation as a teacher. His character and reputation were tainted in toto. It separated him from his family and his parents passed away while he was in prison for a crime he did not commit. This book is all about change or emancipation.

Invaders and Infidels (Book 1)
Author: Sandeep Balakrishna
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 9390077222
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
The Islamic conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. It is a discouraging tale, for its evident moral is that civilisation is a precious good, whose delicate complex of order and freedom, culture and peace can at any moment be overthrown by barbarians invading from without or multiplying within. ~Will Durant, American historian Invaders and Infidels: From Sindh to Delhi: The 500-Year Journey of Islamic Invasions is a work of gripping history, which tells the story of the origins and trajectory of Islamic invasions into India. It begins with the first Muslim conquest and ends with Babur's invasion of Hindustan, spanning the period of the Delhi Sultanate which was in power for almost 320 years. This epochal story encompasses a vast sweep of events, which changed the history of India forever, and introduced it to an alien faith and a religious despotism such as the country had never experienced before. It comprises major and minor sagas of great heroism, untold savagery, stout resistance, brutal intrigues and epic tragedies. Embedded in this narrative are two major themes, largely overlooked in the inherited Indian historical and cultural memory. For more than three hundred years, alien Muslim invasions into India were largely fleeting, transitory and unstable. However, the lasting legacy of these Muslim invasions is the permanent destruction and disappearance of Classical India. Invaders and Infidels will fascinate anyone interested in the story of pre-Medieval India, a gateway era in the history of this ancient culture and civilisation.
