Milk would only last a couple of days, so it was great to have the goats. They were well looked after.” Former lighthouse keeper Eddie Fitzgerald is telling me about life on Ballycotton Island in east Cork. I have visited the village on the mainland before, but the little green island and its black lighthouse tower always had an air of mystery, as the island had been out of bounds for visitors — until now. Fitzgerald teaches me about the life of a lightkeeper. He tells us about the paraffin oil-powered freezer where they used to store extra meat or milk before the days of electric fridges, and about the 10 goats. “I could be here all day telling you stories about the goats,” he laughs. Ballycotton lighthouse was first lit in 1851 and for the following 141 years, until Step in the lighthouse was automated, lightkeepers lived on the island. For the first 50 years, two families at a time lived on the island — the children were rowed across to school and back — but later it was just the keepers there for a month at a time, with no shore excursions, even though the lighthouse was less than a mile from shore.

We have seen a multitude of works on numerous states in Latin .l\merica, Asia., and lately, Africa. The achievements of peoples without a history i~ the western European concept of the term are presented to us as a pageant of peoples striv::tng to free themselves from 6olonial domination and being prey to the disruptive forces of our mass civilization. Looking over this output of books., we are tempted to ask ourselvea why other areas which, on the contrsry., nave played an import­ ant part in the history of man and which now contribute a distinctive philosop~y of life have been almost completely relegated to the shadows of obscurity?
