At times their first day in the Landraad is corroborated by a letter of appointment from the Galle commander and formal introductions at the meetings. A few records of earlier meetings exist but are intermittent. Councillors who served for short periods from 1759 to 1796 may have escaped this list as some meeting data during this period is also missing. It must be kept in mind that some members were absent for long durations, citing reasons mentioned in chapter two. The ‘last’ date is the day on which the member is last listed in the available meeting records, but it does not mean that he was always present at that meeting. On some occasions, his death was announced on that day. The ‘generale land- en zeemonsterrollen’ of the VOC’s Amsterdam chamber and S A W Mottau’s indexes of acts of ap- pointments from Galle and Colombo provided information on birthplace and first appointment in the east. Family trees published in the Journal of the Dutch Burgher Union and the database of VOC sea voyagers (http://vocopvarenden.nationaalarchief.nl/) were also useful in drawing up this table. 183 Name Birthplace 1st appoi- Record in meetings ntment First Last Marin, August Charles de Celle 1774 25 Jul 1778 21 Oct 1780 Martheze, Nicolaas Bernardus Galle 1737 27 Jun 1767 5 Sept 1767 7 Jan 1775 21 Sept 1776 11 Mar 1780 15 Jul 1780 Mazius, Sixtus Colombo 1737 14 Jul 1764 14 Feb 1767 Medeler, Hendrik Anthonij Colombo 1751 21 Feb 1767 28 Nov 1767 Meurling, Johannes Westerwijk 1745 20 Nov 1779 Moor, Pieter Arend de Colombo 1761 20 Apr 1786 12 Dec 1795 Nagel, Harmanus Amsterdam 1749 8 Dec 1770 22 Jun 1771 Oosterlo, Maurits Varnholte 1723 29 Sept 1759 6 Dec 1760 Otto, Coenraad Mannar 1751 21 Mar 1789 2 Aug 1793 Poulier, Aarnout Galle 1740 14 July 1764 6 Aug 1764 Poulier, Adriaan Galle 1770 21 Apr 1781 15 May 1784 Prevo, Coenraad - 1733 14 Jul 1764 8 Mar 1766 Ranzow, August Christian Anthon Oldenburg 1788 23 Aug 1793 12 Dec 1795 Graaf van Rooij, Jacobus de Galle 1740 9 Mar 1765 7 Jan 1775 Roosmale Cocq, Petrus Jacobus Leiden 1764 16 May 1778 19 Aug 1785 11 Dec 1790 12 Dec 1795 Runstoff, Casparus Matara 1766 19 Aug 1785 14 Jan 1786 Samlant, Abraham Colombo 1769 24 Dec 1779 12 Nov 1788 Schreuder, Johan Fredrik Erfurt 1775 12 May 1787 1 Sept 1787 Schuler, Pieter William Ferdinand Utrecht 1780 12 Nov 1788 23 Oct 1790 Adriaan van Sieling, Casper Galle 1755 4 Jul 1772 25 Jul 1772 Silva, Pieter Simonsz de Galle 1761 28 May 1785 12 May 1787 Sluijsken, Pieter Amsterdam 1758 15 Jan 1766 14 Mar 1772 Stein, Johannes Halle 1745 29 Sept 1759 15 Jul 1775 Strehl, Johan Theodoor - - 29 Sept 1759 22 Oct 1760 Stroebbe, Balthazar Hendrik Osnabrück 1748 14 Jul 1764 27 Apr 1776 Stroebbe, Balthazar Nicolaas Galle 1760 29 Jul 1775 21 Sept 1776 Swieten, Floris van Leiden 1736 12 Jul 1760 15 Oct 1762 Teylingen, Theodoris van Negapatnam 1784 24 May 1788 12 Nov 1788 Tekenborg, Jan David Nijmegen 1763 21 Feb 1767 19 Dec 1772 Toussaint, Johannes Colombo 1732 29 Sept 1759 6 Dec 1760 Trek, Justinus Christiaan Colombo 1775 11 Jul 1787 12 Dec 1795 Velde, Egbert van de Galle 1734 29 Sept 1759 6 Dec 1760 Velzen, Adriaan van Batavia 1746 21 Feb 1767 26 Nov 1768 Vos, Pieter de Colombo 1742 8 Jun 1765 21 Mar 1772 16 Nov 1782 2 Feb 1793 Wahlberg, Johannes Kalmer 1787 10 May 1793 12 Dec 1795 Wijnants, Gerrits Jansz - - 15 Aug 1772 21 Sept 1776 Zitter, Wilhelmus Gijsbert van Galle 1766 8 Jul 1786 - Nadeera Rupesinghe 184 APPENDIX II: RULERS OF KANDY AND DUTCH GOVERNORS Kings of Kandy 1591–1815 Vimaladharmasuriya I 1591–1604 Senerat 1604–1635 Rajasingha II 1635–1687 Vimaladharmasuriya II 1687–1707 Narendra Singha 1707–1739 Sri Vijaya Rajasingha 1739–1747 Kirti Sri Rajasingha 1747–1782 Rajadhi Rajasingha 1782–1798 Sri Vikrama Rajasingha 1798–1815 Dutch Governors of Ceylon 1640–1796 Willem J.

  • Part I: the Kandyan Kings and Cosmopolitan Discourse
    THE MANY FACES OF THE KANDYAN KINGDOM, 1591-1765: LESSONS FOR OUR TIME?1 PART I: THE KANDYAN KINGS AND COSMOPOLITAN DISCOURSE Introduction This paper discusses the reign of Vimaladharmasūriya, the first consecrated king of Kandy (1591-1604) and his successors during whose reigns the Kandyan kingdom became a place that provided a home for diverse cultures and communities. Prior to this Kandy was ruled by three local kings, the first being Senāsammata Vikramabāhu (c. 1469-1511). Senāsammata means elected by the sēna or army or perhaps by members of the aristocratic class known as banḍ āras (“lords).” Vikramabāhu tried to assert his independence from the sovereign kings of Kōṭṭe. That kingdom commenced with Bhūvanekabāhu V (1371-1408) and ended with Bhūvanekabāhu VII (1521-51) and his grandson Dharmapāla (1551- 1597), the first Catholic sovereign. Vikramabāhu was badly defeated and had to pay a large tribute. After Dharmapāla died Kōṭṭe became part of Portugal which now had control over much of Jaffna in the north and the Maritime provinces in the south. The Portuguese were a presence in Kōṭṭe from 1506 and had the support of Bhūvanekabāhu VII but not his brother Māyādunne, the ruler of Sītāvaka 1 who was a foe of the Portuguese. His intrepid son Rājasinha I (1581-1593) at one time nearly brought about the whole kingdom of Kōṭṭe and much of Kandy under his rule. As for the fortunes of Kandy Vikramabāhu was followed by his son Jayavīra Banḍ āra (1511- 1552) during whose time Catholic friars became a presence in the court.2 In order to please the Portuguese and the king of Kōṭṭe he became a nominal Catholic until he was deposed and exiled by his son Karalliyadde Banḍ āra (1552-1582) who became a devoted Catholic and publicly embraced Catholicism around 1562-1564.

    70 Tsch. Gesch. Gnk. Natuurw. Wisk. Techn., 2(1979)2. A. J. P. Raat ENIGE VOORWERPEN UIT DE NALATENSCHAP VAN JOAN GIDEON LOTEN (1710-1789). Joan Gideon Lx)ten staat in de literatuur bekend als de natuuronderzoeker- gouvemeur van Ceylon'. Hij wordt algemeen beschouwd als de grondlegger van de huidige kennis van de ornithologie van dit eiland^. De Ceylonese zonnevogel Nectarina lotenia (Linnaeus, 1766)^ herinnert blijvend aan Loten's activiteiten en verdiensten voor de vogelkennis van Sri Lanka. Loten's faam als omitholoog is terug te brengen op zijn coilectie waterverfteke- ningen van Ceylonese dieren en planten. Deze aquarellen werden tijdens zijn bestuur over dit eiland (1752-1757) door Pieter Cornells de Bevere (1722-v66r 1781) vervaardigd. In de tweede helft van de 18e eeuw werden zij door verschil- lende Engelse ornithologen in hun werken afgebeeld en beschreven. De coilectie is daardoor van belang voor de systematische dierkunde. Na Loten's dood is de verzameling verspreid geraakt over verschillende Engelse en Nederlandse musea. Na zijn jeugd in Utrecht te hebben doorgebracht vertrok Loten begin 1732 in de rang van onderkoopman bij de Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie met het schip 'Beekvliet' naar Batavia". Tot 1757 verbleef hij in de kolonien en diende hij de Compagnie in verschillende rangen. Zo was hij gouverneur van Makassar op Celebes (1744-1748) en gezant van de Raad van Indie tijdens de onlusten op Bantam in 1752'. Sedert 1754 was hij behalve gouverneur van Ceylon ook Ordinair Raad van Nederlands Indie. Na zijn terugkeer in Europa als admiraal van de retourvloot in 1758, vestigde 1. Zie bijvoorbeeld P.J.

In 1765 werd hij benoemd tot gouverneur van de VOC-vestiging Ceylon, waar hij een einde maakte aan de oorlog met het binnen- landse koninkrijk Kandy. Gedurende twintig jaar toonde hij een eigenzinnige visie op de te volgen politiek ten opzichte van de opdringende Britse macht in India. Zijn matige gezondheid en grote teleurstelling over het weinig krachtige Nederlandse optreden tijdens de Vierde En- gelse Oorlog deden hem afzien van een verdere car- rière in Batavia. Deze biografie van Falck, gebaseerd op vele herontdekte archieven, geeft een interes- sant beeld van zijn leven als diplomaat, zijn familieachtergronden, netwerken en intriges evenals de handel en de bin- nen- en buitenlandse politiek in de acht- tiende eeuw.

    TITLE OF THESIS TAMIL MINORITY PROBLEM IN SRI LANKA IN THE LIGHT OF SELF-DETERMINATION AND SOVEREIGNTY OF STATES NAME OF CANDIDATE R. P. Samarasinghe TITLE OF DEGREE Master of Laws (Honours) YEAR OF SUBMISSION 2005 UNIVERSITY University of Western Sydney Parramatta Campus School of Law SUMMARY This thesis analyses the Tamil minority problem in Sri Lanka in the light of Self- Determination and State Sovereignty. The first Chapter gives an introduction. The second Chapter discusses the location, composition and historical background, as it relates to the Tamil minority problem in the country. The third Chapter focuses on the legal issues and principles involved in the exercise of the right of self-determination. The fourth Chapter discusses the principle of self-determination. The fifth Chapter discusses the principle of self-determination in the light of treaty law. Chapter six focuses on State practise with respect to self-determination. The cases of Aaland Island, Katanga, Biafra and Bangladesh are discussed in detail. Chapter seven deals with the specific issue of self-determination in the Sri Lankan context of secession. The chapter tries to ascertain the legal conditions, which would warrant secession. Chapter eight will focuses on the inherent tensions between the two principles of self- determination and the State sovereignty. Chapter nine focuses on the definition of statehood and factors undermining separatists claims to create separate States. Chapter ten evaluates the discussion in the earlier chapters.

Trade , colonisation and slavery have been drivers of migration , interconnecting people of diverse ethnicity globally. Afro - Asian communities are both historic and contemporary a nd, w hilst Afro - diasporic communities in the Atlantic World are well recognised, the diasporas in Asia have only become visible in the last decade. Assimilation to the diversity of the Indian Ocean has cont ributed to this invisibility. With the loss of patronage due to changing political scenarios, African migrants have bec o me disenfranchised. The dynamics of their identity, shaped by strong cultural memories bring out their African roots. This paper argue s that diasporic consciousness of Afro - Asians is expressed through their strong cultural memories. As people with dual belongings, identifying with both the homeland and the hostland , Afro - Asians are able to reconcile their hybrid identities. With the mov ement of Afro - Asians from the peripheries their subaltern voices are beginning to be heard. T heir eclipsed histories and lost narratives are challeng ing the Atlantic model of African migration . K EY WORDS : African diaspora, Indian Ocean, Hybrid Identities , Homeland, Hostland , Afro - Asians .
