    PRZEGLĄD HUMANISTYCZNY 4, 2015 Florian Krobb (National University of Ireland Maynooth) FROM TRACK TO TERRITORY: GERMAN CARTOGRAPHIC PENETRATION OF AFRICA, C. 1860–1900 I On page 130, the Cambridge History Atlas juxtaposes two maps of Africa. The larger, page-filling map shows the African continent’s political division in the first decade of the twentieth century: apart from Morocco, Liberia and Abyssinia, the entire landmass and all adjacent islands are shaded in the cha- racteristic colours of their European owners. Geographical features, mountains, rivers and the names of those features which do not lend themselves to graphic representation, such as the Kalahari Desert, appear very much subordinate to the bold reds, yellows and blues of the European nations. History, at the beginning of the twentieth century, is the development of nation states, and Africa had been integrated into its trajectory by being partitioned into dependencies of those very nation states. The Atlas integrates itself into, on the eve of the First World War even represents a pinnacle of, the European master narrative of the formation of nations, their expansion beyond domestic borders in the process of colonisation, the consolidation of these possessions into global empires, and the vying for strategic advantage and dominance on the global stage in imperialist fashion. On the inset in the bottom left corner, the same geographical region is depicted as it was in the year 1870. The smaller size leaves even less room for geographical information: some large rivers and lakes are marked in the white expanse that is only partly surrounded by thin strips of land shaded in the European nations’ identifying colours.

The recommendations are addressed to the Committee, the States Parties, (potential) site managers, to the World Heritage Centre and to the advisory bodies to the Convention. The Committee may also wish to note that the meeting was considered as a starting point for a broader reflection on desert landscapes, both in the Arab Region and other parts of the world. In the framework of the global strategy other expert meetings and theme studies could be carried out towards the identification, recognition and protection of desert landscapes of outstanding universal value. Summary report of the Expert Meeting on Desert Landscapes and Oasis Systems (Oasis Kharga, Egypt), 23 - 26 September 2001 The participants were welcomed by the Governor of the New Valley Province, General Mehat Abdel Rhaman, who highlighted that he was in charge of the largest province in Egypt, which also covers important desert areas west of the Nile.

  • Hopes, Hazards and a Haggle: Perthes' Ten Sheet “Karte Von Inner
    International Symposium on “Old Worlds-New Worlds”: The History of Colonial Cartography 1750-1950 Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands, 21 to 23 August 2006 Working Group on the History of Colonial Cartography in the 19th and 20 th centuries International Cartographic Association (ICA-ACI) Hopes, Hazards and a Haggle: Perthes’ Ten Sheet “Karte von Inner-Afrika” Imre Josef Demhardt Privatdozent Dr. phil., Geographisches Institut der Technischen Universität Darmstadt [email protected] Abstract The rise to fame both of Petermanns Geographische Mitteilungen and its dynamic founding editor August Petermann justifiably is closest related to their contributions in unveiling the unknown interior of Africa. Against a background sketch of Petermann’s cartographical concept and working method this paper discusses a major map-series of the pre-colonial era jointly compiled with Bruno Hassenstein – the ten sheet “Karte von Inner-Afrika nach dem Stande der geographischen Kenntnis in den Jahren 1861 bis 1863”. Inaugurated as a guiding tool for the Deutsche Inner-Afrika Expedition (1861-62), propagated and organised by Petermann to salvage manuscripts of Eduard Vogel, who got lost in 1856 east of Lake Chad, however, the main purpose was to provide an up-to-date framework of all obtainable knowledge in the scale 1:2 millions supplemented by anticipated exclusive and extensive research exploration reports of the journal’s own expedition. Although the map-series remained a torso – the high hopes placed in the expedition failed with almost no cartographical gain due to inexperience and misfortune – it stands as arguably opus magnum of 19th century exploratory cartography of Central Africa drawing on many never before and never again constructed route itineraries.

  • A Century and a Half of Hausa Language Studies
    A CENTURY AND A HALF OF HAUSA LANGUAGE STUDIES Paul N. Newman 0. PRELIMINARY REMARKS The objective of this presentation is to provide a historical picture of the development of Hausa language studies over the past hundred and fifty years. In organising this historical overview, I have broken up the history of Hausa studies into four periods. These periods, of course, overlap arid are not discrete. One reason why it is so difficult to set up distinct periods is that there seems to be something healthy about being involved in Hausa language studies. What I am referring to is the fact that many of the distinguished Hausa scholars are men who lived to be 80 and 90 years old, i.e. they lived long periods of time extending from the 19th into the 20th century. Thus, sometimes when we put someone in a 19th century period for purposes of discussion, we are surprised to find that this scholar was still living in 1950 or thereabouts. Historical periods are also artificial in that chronological dates and conceptual developments do not always go hand in hand. For example, two contemporaneous scholars could easily occupy different periods in that the work of one might be more traditional and linked to the past while the work of the other was more innovative and linked to the future. Nevertheless, for the sake of providing coherence and organisation to this historical overview, I think that grouping scholars into distinct periods, however inexact, is useful. As a final preliminary note, let me say that I am not intending to provide a complete history of Hausa language studies in which every single scholar who ever worked on the language is mentioned.

  • Heinrich Barth, Adolf Overweg, Eduard Vogel
    Francesco Lamendola Esploratori tedeschi nel cuore dell'Africa: Heinrich Barth, Adolf Overweg, Eduard Vogel Chissà perché, oggi in certi ambienti storiografici è considerato politicamente poco corretto, o quanto meno discutibile, occuparsi degli esploratori europei del XIX secolo, particolarmente di quelli che rivolsero le loro ricerche al continente africano. Più o meno esplicitamente, viene loro imputata la colpa di aver fornito l'avanguardia degli eserciti coloniali; perciò, nell'ambito dei circoli culturali "progressisti", i loro nomi sono caduti nell'oblio, a dispetto dei notevoli meriti scientifici che, indubbiamente, molti di essi ebbero. Così, siamo caduti da un estremo all'altro: se, un tempo, le storie del continente africano scritte dagli Europei tendevano ad assegnar loro uno spazio sproporzionato, "dimenticandosi" delle culture locali e delle civiltà indigene, adesso sta divenendo difficile vederli citati anche solo di sfuggita, a parte i cinque o sei più famosi e a meno che le loro vite abbiano qualcosa a che fare con gli eccessi e i crimini del colonialismo. Un buon esempio di ciò è la famosissima, e forse sopravvalutata, Africa, del saggista inglese John Reader, apparsa nel 1997 (e tradotta in italiano dalla casa Editrice Mondadori nel 2001), tipico prodotto del rigetto anti-vittoriano e anti-etnocentrico della fine del XX secolo. Invano si cercherebbero, nelle oltre 700 pagine di questa grossa opera, una sola citazione dei nomi di Heinrich Barth, Adolf Overweg ed Eduard Vogel (anche se quelle di Livingstone si sprecano addirittura: il lupo sciovinista perde il pelo, ma non il vizio…). Questa tacita rimozione è particolarmente vistosa nel caso degli esploratori tedeschi, che pure diedero un contributo decisivo alla conoscenza del continente africano dal punto di vista geografico, botanico, zoologico ed etnografico.

Sebastian Prange Abstract This paper examines the economic organization of the trans- Saharan slave trade between the fourteenth and the nineteenth centuries on those routes that moved slaves from Sudanic Africa via entrepôts in the Sahel and Sahara to the Maghrib. The commercial framework of this trade was integrated into ethnic, cultural, and religious systems, yet for its efficient operation could not rely solely on these social institutions. The paper considers temporary cooperation of itinerant slave traders and then projects them onto the broader patterns of commercial organization. It is shown that similar pressures resulted in comparable outcomes: partnerships were formed to take advantage of economies of scale in commercial services and to limit cooperation problems. This demonstrates that the organization of the trans-Saharan slave trade was economically rational and can be analysed in terms of cooperative and non-cooperative strategies.
