He told the captain he was sorry for his misfortune and loss, though in my opinion he was glad of it ; for he was, as I found afterwards, more brutish and dishonest than most of the other kings on the island, and his whole nation were clothed for many years out of the goods they saved from our wreck.

  • The Slave Trade from Madagascar to Jamaica
    Justin Dunnavant Fall 2012 Africana Bibliography Dr. Dan Reboussin From the Forgotten Shores: The Slave Trade from Madagascar to Jamaica The topic of slavery is very broad but there are considerably less sources when discussing the slave trade from Southeast Africa and, more specifically, from Madagascar to Jamaica. Initial searches for “Madagascar, slave trade, and Jamaica” yielded few results thus I had to redefine and broaden my search terms in addition to diversifying my databases and search engines. I found it useful to research aspects of the trade separately as opposed to all of those terms together. Once I narrowed down a time period (1671- 1719) I was able to search early Madagascar and slave trade history, then early Jamaican history. Searching databases for Madagascar and Jamaica separately greatly increased my search results and ability to find pertinent information. References 1. African Bibliography 2012 Manchester, England: Manchester University Press. Annual 1985-2012. Accessed, 2 December 2012. http://www.africabibliography.cambridge.org/ The African Biography is an extension of Cambridge University’s International African Initiative and features references to all articles published under their aegis. I searched “slave trade Madagascar” and was surprised that it offered journal articles that previous searches on OneSearch and Google Scholar failed to yield. All of my searches led me to articles no earlier than 2003 making this an excellent database for getting the most up-to- date references. Additionally the database is easily navigable with the ability to filter search results by county, region, subject, publication date, author, and document type. These same filters are also available for general browsing making it much easier than browsing other databases.

  • Daniel Defoe Was Born Is Presumed to Have Been Born in the Fall of 1660
    Chapter 1 London’s Birchin Lane is a short and narrow street, running north-south between the larger Cornhill and Lombard streets. Known in the Middle Ages for its collection of secondhand clothing shops, it eventually became home to several fine men’s clothiers, a destination where men of distinction could pick up something special: a whalebone doublet, perhaps, or a “captain’s suit . stuffed with points, and a pair of velvet slops scored thick with lace.” By the 18th century, it was also home to Old Tom’s Coffee House, which would gain fame by the end of the century for being a hangout of the famous Shakespearean actor, David Garrick. But in 1729, it hosted a no less interesting figure, the rather curious and shadowy Robert Drury. Across town, the famous author Daniel Defoe, widely considered the inventor of the realistic or historical novel, and working under the alias Andrew Moreton Esq., toils over what will be his final work, Second Thoughts Are Best: or, a Further Improvement of a Late Scheme to Prevent Street Robberies. Drury’s story was precisely of the type that most appealed to Defoe and, considering the proximity, there’s little doubt that the famous author had already paid Drury a visit well before his residency at Old Tom’s. * * * Now forty-two years old, Drury sits in Old Tom’s with a mug of coffee, a pile of books on the table in front of him. It’s a closed-in place, full of chatter, laughter, and barracking. Men sip coffee and read their expensive newspapers or listen for fresh news coming up from the boys sent to the docks for that purpose.

This project centers on the Free D.C. Movement, a political crusade to fully enfranchise Washingtonians, through grassroots organizing and by pressuring the Federal government to address the political, social, and economic ills that plagued the nation’s capital for nearly a century. Washingtonians’ struggle for full political enfranchisement was one of the most significant goals and significant shortcomings of the 20th century. ii Washington has been an under-researched part of Civil Rights Movement history, even though the city had an instrumental role during this era. My project explores the “Free D.C.” Movement through the lens of residential segregation, employment, and education. I examine how the desire for institutional changes and improvements in these areas helped shape and direct the local movement, and consequently undermined Washington, D.C.

  • Kendall Weir Annotated Bibliography
    Kendall Weir May 14, 2010 Dr. Angel David Nieves AFRST 301W Annotated Bibliography “A True Survivor’s Story?” National Geographic, January 1999, 1. There is no author listed under the article; the article is essentially just a paragraph in the first few pages of this issue of National Geographic. It is placed as if there is a lengthier follow up later in the magazine, but there is not. The article’s main purpose seems like it is just to get someone thinking about the story of Robert Drury. This is probably the most mainstream location there is any mention of Robert Drury—you can find National Geographic through a simple google search, rather than multiple searches and narrowing down in specific databases. I am using this article just as much for the material as for the images. The article backs up that Daniel Defoe was most likely just the editor of the journal. It also quotes Michael Parker Pearson, someone who I have found is a main supporter of the journal, saying “We’ve been to places he described—the rivers, the mountains—and corroborated traditional practices he described that are still in place today.” Moreover, the author points out that Pearson’s team found parts that most likely belonged to Drury’s ship-- the Degrave. The drawing that goes along with this article is a depiction of Drury being held captive by a few Africans, along with other whites in the background. Weir 2 This article is successful in supporting the accuracy of Drury’s journal in a simple paragraph, but most of the evidence stems from Pearson’s discoveries.

Winterbottom Submitted for PhD examination University of London July 2010 2 ABSTRACT I explore how knowledge was created and circulated in and between the settlements of the early English East India Company. I aim: to demonstrate connections between scholarship and early colonialism; to highlight the role of non-elite actors in transferring skills and techniques; and to map global knowledge networks based on systems of patronage that cut across national, ethnic, and social boundaries. Chapter 1 uses the life of Samuel Baron, a half-Dutch, half-Vietnamese factor, spy, and broker for the EIC, client of the rulers of Siam and Tonkin, and author of the Description of Tonqueen to examine the importance of passeurs culturels or go-betweens to both the European trading companies and Asian rulers in the period and their role in transmitting geographical and ethnographic information. Chapter 2 examines the local and international botanical and medical networks of two Company surgeons in Madras, based on collections in the Natural History Museum and the surgeons' correspondence with the apothecary James Petiver.
