Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Inger S. B. Brodey Todd Ramón Ochoa Marsha S. Collins Tanya L. Shields Madeline G. Levine © 2016 Donato Fhunsu ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Donato Fhunsu: The Kongo Rule: The Palo Monte Mayombe Wisdom Society (Reglas de Congo: Palo Monte Mayombe) A Book by Lydia Cabrera An English Translation from the Spanish (Under the direction of Inger S. B. Brodey and Todd Ramón Ochoa) This dissertation is a critical analysis and annotated translation, from Spanish into English, of the book Reglas de Congo: Palo Monte Mayombe, by the Cuban anthropologist, artist, and writer Lydia Cabrera (1899-1991). Cabrera’s text is a hybrid ethnographic book of religion, slave narratives (oral history), and folklore (songs, poetry) that she devoted to a group of Afro-Cubans known as “los Congos de Cuba,” descendants of the Africans who were brought to the Caribbean island of Cuba during the trans-Atlantic Ocean African slave trade from the former Kongo Kingdom, which occupied the present-day southwestern part of Congo-Kinshasa, Congo-Brazzaville, Cabinda, and northern Angola. The Kongo Kingdom had formal contact with Christianity through the Kingdom of Portugal as early as the 1490s.

  • The Chapbooks and Broadsides of James Chalmers III, Printer in Aberdeen: Some Re-Discoveries and Initial Observations on His Woodcuts
    The Chapbooks and Broadsides of James Chalmers III, Printer in Aberdeen: Some Re-discoveries and Initial Observations on His Woodcuts IAIN BEAVAN BACKGROUND This essay consists of two related elements. First, an empirical discussion of recent evidence to emerge for chapbook and broadside production in Aberdeen. Second, a consideration of some features of the woodcuts used by James Chalmers III and other chapbook printers, which, in the present context, provide the central evidential theme of this investigation. Previous and contemporary scholars have argued that the north-east of Scotland has the richest ballad and popular song tradition in Britain, and that an analysis of Francis Child’s still unsurpassed and authoritative fi ve-volume compilation, The English and Scottish Popular Ballads, shows that ‘one-third of Child’s Scottish texts and almost one-third of his A-texts [his base or ‘prime’ texts, from which variants may be identifi ed] come from Aberdeenshire’.1 Moreover, ‘of some 10,000 variants of Lowland Scottish songs recorded by the School of Scottish Studies [of Edinburgh University] … several thousand are from the Aberdeen area alone’.2 From the early eighteenth century, popular lowland Scottish song had found itself expressed in printed form, early appearances having been James Watson’s Choice Collection of Comic and Serious Scots Poems, 3 parts (Edinburgh, 1706–11), followed by the Edinburgh Miscellany (Edinburgh, 1720) and Allan Ramsay’s Tea-table Miscellany (Edinburgh, 1723).3 From the mid-eighteenth century also, Scottish chapbook texts appeared in ever increasing numbers, given over to different sub-genres, including histories, prophecies, humorous stories and collections of songs (often called garlands).

  • Directory to Western Printed Heritage Collections
    Directory to western printed heritage collections A. Background to the collections B. Major named Collections of rare books C. Surveys of Early and Rare Books by Place of Origin D. Surveys of Special Collections by Format A. Background to the Collections A1. Introduction. The Library was founded in 1973 (British Library Act 1972). A number of existing collections were transferred into its care at that time, the most extensive of which were those of the British Museum’s Department of Printed Books (including the National Reference Library of Science and Invention), Department of Mss, and Department Oriental Mss and Printed Books. Other collections of rare and special materials have been added subsequently, most notably the India Office Library & Records in 1982. The Library today holds over 150 million collection items, including books, pamphlets, periodicals, newspapers, printed music, maps, mss, archival records, sound recordings, postage stamps, electronic titles, and archived websites; this figure includes an estimated 4.1 million books, pamphlets and periodical titles printed in the West from the 15th cent to the 19th cent. The breadth of collecting in terms of subjects, dates, languages, and geographical provenance has always been a feature of collection building policies. A wide range of heritage materials continues to be acquired from Britain and overseas through purchase and donation. The Library’s early printed materials feature prominently in a range of digital facsimile products, e.g. Early English Books Online, Eighteenth Century Collections Online, Early Music Online, Nineteenth Century Collections Online, and Google Books. Direct links to facsimiles are increasingly provided from the Library’s website, particularly from the main catalogues.

From an early age, and motivated by her parents, she always had interest in travelling. Asia is her true passion and from Japan she has brought the wish to open the first Japanese shop in Portugal exclusively dedicated to the country of the Rising Sun – Kuri Kuri Shop. She likes shoegaze, shooting concerts, and writing about them. She also enjoys reading and permanently rediscovering literature. ABOUT THE WORK: Since the first time I read Bartleby, The Scrivener, by Melville, I was both puzzled and fascinated by the constraints the scrivener imposes on himself. So, during a course on experimental writing at the Faculty of Letters of the University of Porto (a session dedicated to Oulipo), I employed a formal constraint to the short story.
