The present work is confined chiefly to an account of the growth of Christianity 4 197 churches in Madagascar’ and also to enrich the field of historical research for the Table of Contents Church in Madagascar. The revival movement is rooted in the Protestant Church history, so this research is intended to study the concept of indigenization Vol.1, No.1, June 2016 Issue 6 through the preaching, sermons and teachings of Rainisoalambo. There are two Preface by Jonathan Bonk 7 main Protestant churches in Madagascar: the Reformed Church (FJKM) and the Walatta Petros by Wendy Laura Belcher 13 Lutheran (FLM). The revival found within these churches inspired me to think Hakalla Amale by Belaynesh Dindamo 16 about the power behind the Church growth in my country. Rainisoalambo Book Notes 21 contextualized the Gospel. He used indigenization as a strategy and its principles as a source of vitality for the Malagasy Protestant churches. He did not teach a Vol.1, No.2, July 2016 Issue 27 new doctrine either. He helped the people of God to express their faith in Preface by Dana Robert 29 Malagasy culture. In the 20th century, the revival movement shifted from the Josiah Kibira by Angolowyse Malambugi 32 perception of mass conversion and dramatic social changes to the revitalization of Josiah Kibira by Stephen J. Lloyd 38 God’s people. Therefore, the fundamental question is: ‘What is the major Book Notes 49 contribution of Rainisoalambo as the father of revivals, to the indigenization of the Protestant churches in Madagascar?’ My hypothesis is that the revival of Vol.1, No.3-4, August-Sept. 2016 Issue 54 Rainisoalambo made a major contribution to the indigenization of churches in Preface by Michael Ogunewu and Deji Ayegboyin 56 Madagascar. Since "indigenization" is mainly the key word to be understood for David L. Windibiziri by Olusegun Obasanjo 62 this research, this study adopts a theoretical framework, which is informed by Abiodun B. Lawrence by Olusegun Obasanjo 76 concept of cultural translation and phenomenological approach. Since this Dominic I. Ekandem by Olusegun Obasanjo 86 research uses a historical perspective, it is important to practice the historical Book Notes by Frances (Beth) Restrick 106 methodology: data collection for primary and secondary sources, potential oral interviews, criticism of data through assessing the genuineness of information Vol.1, No.5, October 2016 Issue 111 sources and the presentation of information in accurate and readable form. The Preface by Gabriel Leonard Allen 113 analytical approach is adopted in this theoretical framework.

  • A Walk Through the Gallery 5
    A WALK THROUGH THE GALLERY MARGARET PLASS The new African Gallery has been designed to exhibit, simply and honestly, a selection of sculptures from our permanent collections. Proudly we present them as works of art; where possible they are arranged in tribal groups for convenience and comparative study. They are labeled briefly and clearly. Here are the materials from which our visitors may form a just view of the special characteristics and merits of Negro art. For more than half a century our Museum has been enriched by acces- sions of African sculpture, mainly by purchase and partly by gifts, to the end that our permanent collections are the largest and most varied in style in America. The following descriptive notes are not to be construed as an attempt at a catalogue of the exhibition; the serious student may have access to fully documented formal catalogues should he apply to the Museum staff. In Dr. Coon's introduction he has given us the anthropological and ethno- grapbical background of the people who produced this art, working within the framework of their tribal traditions. Here in this book, with their photographs, are small synopses of what we know of these sculptures, and what we guess. We all have conscious, and sometimes unconscious, difficulty in understanding such works of art; the philosophical barrier that lies in the way of full appreciation is almost too difficult to hurdle. Many writers have tried to explain the magico-religious significance, the strength and directness of African art; few have succeeded. Perhaps these notes are mere hints and suggestions, but we hope that they may sometimes be stimulating as well as factual.

Definition of a Language The preparation of a listing of Nigerian languages inevitably begs the question of the definition of a language. The terms 'language' and 'dialect' have rather different meanings in informal speech from the more rigorous definitions that must be attempted by linguists. Dialect, in particular, is a somewhat pejorative term suggesting it is merely a local variant of a 'central' language. In linguistic terms, however, dialect is merely a regional, social or occupational variant of another speech-form. There is no presupposition about its importance or otherwise. Because of these problems, the more neutral term 'lect' is coming into increasing use to describe any type of distinctive speech-form. However, the Index inevitably must have head entries and this involves selecting some terms from the thousands of names recorded and using them to cover a particular linguistic nucleus. In general, the choice of a particular lect name as a head-entry should ideally be made solely on linguistic grounds.

  • Fombandrazana Vezo: Ethnic Identity and Subsistence
    FOMBANDRAZANA VEZO: ETHNIC IDENTITY AND SUBSISTENCE STRATEGIES AMONG COASTAL FISHERS OF WESTERN MADAGASCAR by EARL FURMAN SANDERS (Under the Direction of THEODORE GRAGSON) ABSTRACT The complex dynamic among coastal peoples of western Madagascar involves spread of cultural elements due to extensive seasonal migrations, tribes and ethnic groups merging into progressively broader ethnic groups, distinctions based on interethnic and intra-ethnic boundaries, and lumping of peoples with remotely similar subsistence patterns which has perpetuated ethnonym vagaries. This study analyzes the cultural bases of the Vezo, a group of marine fishers inhabiting the west coast of Madagascar, with the intent of presenting a clearer image of what is entailed within the ethnonym, Vezo, both with respect to subsistence strategies and cultural identity. Three broad areas of inquiry, ethnohistory, ecological niche as understood from the Eltonian definition, and geographical scope inform the field research. Access to these areas leans heavily on oral histories, which in turn is greatly facilitated by intensive participant observation and work in the native language. The analysis shows that the Vezo constitute a distinct ethnic group composed of diverse named patrilineal descent groups. This ethnic group is defined by common origins and a shared sense of common history, which along with the origins of the taboos are maintained within their oral histories. Within the ethnonym, Vezo, there are subsistence as well as other cultural distinctions, most notably the taboos. These distinctions are the bases of the ethnic boundaries separating those who belong to the Vezo cultural group and others who are referred to as Vezo (Vezom-potake and Vezo-loatse) due to geographical disposition.
