H560Oldenburg und Leipzig Schulze 1902. 8vo. VIII 346 S. 1 Bl. Illustrierter Original-Leinenband unbeschnittenes gutes Exemplar. Der ber¸hmte Autor Sienkiewicz bekannt durch "Quo Vadis" unternahm 1891 eine Reise nach Ostafrika Dort besucht er Sansibar und gelangt auch ins Innere des Kontinents. Sehr interessant sind seine Ausf¸hrungen ¸ber seine Begegnungen in der kolonialen Gesellschaft. Er trifft unter anderem den Sultan von Sansibar Wissmann oder aber Mrs. Jameson die Gattin des verstorbenen Mr. Jameson der mit Stanley und Bartelott die Emin Pascha Hilfsexpedition durchf¸hrte und dem ja einiges zur Last gelegt wurde was die Nachhut betrifft. Mrs. Jameson versuchte den Ruf ihres Mannes und ihrer Familie wieder ins Reine zu bringen. Sienkiewicz schreibt ¸ber diese Versuche auch ¸ber die Kontaktaufnahme zu Tippu Tip der jedoch nichts dazu beitragen mˆchte. Sienkiewicz gibt vereinzelt Hinweise auf gewaltsame koloniale Unterdr¸ckung: "Ich hˆrte mehrfach vom grausamen Umgang der Deutschen mit den Schwarzen:" nur in der polnischen Ausgabe von 1893. Doch er meinte auch dafl die Deutschen ihr Gebiet nicht schlechter oder besser verwalten w¸rden als die anderen. Die Kritik richtet sich somit nicht im Besonderen am deutschen Kolonialismus wenn ¸berhaupt von Kritik gesprochen werden kann dann von einer Kritik am europ‰ischen Kolonialismus. Ein sehr interessantes Zeitdokument. Dieses Buch ist auch relativ selten. unknown

Henryk Sienkiewicz’s Quo Vadis is a historical novel that juxtaposes the decadence of imperial Rome with the emerging moral and spiritual values of early Christianity. Set during the reign of Emperor Nero the novel follows the transformation of the Roman nobleman Marcus Vinicius as he falls in love with the Christian woman Lygia and gradually adopts her faith. Through richly detailed narrative and historical allusions Sienkiewicz critiques the cruelty and corruption of Roman society while idealizing the virtues of Christian humility sacrifice and moral integrity. Published in 1896 the novel resonated with contemporary readers for its affirmation of faith and ethical conviction amid political tyranny contributing to Sienkiewicz’s receipt of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1905.
