1829225831829. African AmericanReligionCarribean New Testament in the Negro Tongue. In The Eclectic Review Vol. XLIII No. LXXXVI. London: 1829. Excerpt: pp. 553-564. Disbound 12pp. A rare excerpt reviewing a missionaries' translation of the New Testament into "Negro-English" also called talkee-talkee the Creole language spoken by enslaved and free Black populations in Demerara and Surinam. The British and Foreign Bible Society issued the translation in 1829 for missionary use representing one of the earliest attempts to render the Christian scriptures into an Afro-diasporic Creole tongue of the Caribbean basin. This review in The Eclectic Review a leading 19th-century dissenting religious periodical gives a lengthy discussion of the translation providing contemporary reactions that ranged from grudging acknowledgment to outright racist dismissal.<br /> <br /> The review juxtaposes biblical passages rendered into Creole with commentary often mocking the "mixed speech" as "ridiculously offensively and incurably base." Yet despite its dismissive tone the piece captures critical evidence of how missionaries and colonial observers grappled with African- and Creole-derived linguistic traditions including debates over whether vernacular scripture empowered conversion or threatened white control. The review references Moravian missionary John Latrobe's efforts in Suriname as well as comparisons to African Dutch and Portuguese linguistic influences. Particularly striking are verbatim transcriptions of gospel passages in Creole offering researchers a rare contemporaneous witness to early printed Afro-Caribbean language. Light toning disbound with clean margins preserved; pages complete and supple. A rare document of the intersection of race religion and language in the British Caribbean revealing both the efforts made by missionaries to connect through Creole scripture and the entrenched racism of the colonial intellectual establishment. unknown

The ornate bistre plates illustrate legends and allegories of freemason foundational lore. <br /> Jacques-Etienne Marconis 1795-1868 was a French author and freemason. His father served in the Napoleonic army where he became obsessed with Egyptian religion and myth. Upon his return to France in 1815 he founded a freemasonry lodge called the Pilgrims of Memphis but the chapter was disbanded only one year later. He entrusted the archives to his son who reformed and revived the charter in 1839 but his small group of pilgrims failed to receive dispensation from the freemasonry governing body the Grand Orient of France. In 1859 Marconis applied again to the Grand Orient for masonic chapterhood and it was finally granted. This book represents the final iteration of the foundation of the Rite of Memphis a project that took over 40 years to come to fruition.<br /> OCLC locates no copies in U.S. libraries.<br /> Caillet 7116; Dorbon 689. the Author unknown
