Pages : 359
Book Description
Aidan Southall’s cultivated the enjoyment of life’s simple luxuries. He loved travelling. Difficulties encountered on journeys were extraneous to the destinations’ experiences. As a researcher, tourist or and pilgrim, he believed in travelling with “an open mind, leaving back light footprints, and returning with treasuries of memories”. Born in Birmingham, moved as a baby to “Fenlands” where the love for simple life developed while cycling, swimming in rivers, camping and hitch hiking. During family holidays, besides rowing, and standing on his head (his life long mode of exercise), he already demonstrated an anthropological predilection: quizzing and recording fishermen about their boats and fish. Two years after arriving in Uganda, he established anthropology syllabus in 1947; departed Makerere in 1964 having chaired the department of anthropology and sociology; and directed the Social Research Institute. In 1991 he retired from the University of Wisconsin Madison, his base since 1969, to Southwest France.

Mania for Freedom
Author: John Mac Kilgore
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469629739
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm," wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson in 1841. While this statement may read like an innocuous truism today, the claim would have been controversial in the antebellum United States when enthusiasm was a hotly contested term associated with religious fanaticism and poetic inspiration, revolutionary politics and imaginative excess. In analyzing the language of enthusiasm in philosophy, religion, politics, and literature, John Mac Kilgore uncovers a tradition of enthusiasm linked to a politics of emancipation. The dissenting voices chronicled here fought against what they viewed as tyranny while using their writings to forge international or antinationalistic political affiliations. Pushing his analysis across national boundaries, Kilgore contends that American enthusiastic literature, unlike the era's concurrent sentimental counterpart, stressed democratic resistance over domestic reform as it navigated the global political sphere. By analyzing a range of canonical American authors--including William Apess, Phillis Wheatley, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Walt Whitman--Kilgore places their works in context with the causes, wars, and revolutions that directly or indirectly engendered them. In doing so, he makes a unique and compelling case for enthusiasm's centrality in the shaping of American literary history.
