  • The Surface of Things: a History of Photography from the Swahili Coast Prita Meier
    The Surface of Things: A History of Photography from the Swahili Coast prita meier The Swahili coast of eastern Africa figures prominently in the pictorial remains of European colonization and empire making in Africa. Today, photograph archives across the world con- tinue to catalog, disseminate, and display thousands of images of this African littoral society. Pictures and descriptions of Swahili men and women have long ignited the imagination of Europeans and Americans, because they evoke a much-loved phantasm of ruthless slavers, languid harem girls, adventuring seamen, and mysterious “hybrid races.” This trope had its beginnings in the sixteenth century, when the Portuguese empire colonized key ports on the Swahili coast, but it reached unprecedented heights in the nineteenth century, as new machineries of representation, mass production, and telecommunication created a modern visual economy around the bodies and faces of Swahili coast people. Studio prints and post- cards depicting local women especially circulated all across the Western world during the colonial period (Figs. 1–3), when the coast was part of the British Protectorate (1890–1963). Most show young girls in contrived poses, meeting the eye of the viewer either with sugges- tive stares (Fig. 1) or with a bright smile of welcoming warmth (Fig. 2). Photographic profiles of the human face were also common (Fig. 3). In such mass-produced postcards voyeuristic pleasure is conveniently coupled with “scientific” data about humankind, and the head and planes of women’s necks and shoulders were often bared to document their physiognomy. Here, photographic likeness is deployed to give visual form to modern anthropology’s ethnic typology schemas.1 Each sitter is simply identified as “Swahili” or “Comoro.” As is true of most Victorian-era postcards, these three examples are really image-texts: written descriptions or titles were superimposed onto the image, fixing the meaning of the pictured individuals.

First, I sincerely thank the German Academic Exchange Service and Tanzania Ministry of Education and Vocational Training for their joint scholarship that financed my German language course at the Eurasia Language Institute in Berlin and my PhD project at Technischen Universit ät Chemnitz. Secondly, I thank the Open University of Tanzania, my employer, for granting me a study leave to pursue my PhD in Germany, and for partly funding my study. My appreciation equally goes to the University of Helsinki in Finland for granting me a permission to access and use their online Kiswahili corpus, the Helsinki Corpus of Swahili for my research. Ac- cess to the corpus enabled me to compare and contrast the general tendencies and fre- quencies of my research tokens in my recent corpus, the Chemnitz Corpus of Swahili and their old corpus, the Helsinki Corpus of Swahili. I am equally grateful to Prof. Daniel Nkemleke, for his guidance on how to analyze my research data, and how to present them meaningfully and logically. He also helped me in proofreading my final drafts of thesis to ensure that it meets the standard of a PhD thesis in linguistics.

Jan Chalupa Acknowledgements I would like to express my gratitude to Mgr. Radek Vogel, PhD. for his patience, guidance and precious advice during writing this thesis as well as the help with the topic. Abstract Although many research studies were devoted to etymologically themed works, there is no publication that is concerned specifically with male fashion. Therefore, this thesis focuses on the development of the terminology of male fashion. The aim of this thesis is to ascertain the etymological background of the terms of male fashion concerning the language origin, time period and word formation. The first part of the thesis is devoted to outlining the related of linguistic concepts, followed by a brief history of the English language and a brief history of fashion. The last chapter is devoted to the analysis of the terminology that is based on the corpus included in the appendix.
