Gutes Exemplar; Einband etwas berieben. - Mit beiliegender Faltkarte. - Faksimile in Frakturschrift. - Richard Kandt (vor 1894 Richard Kantorowicz; * 17. Dezember 1867 in Posen; † 29. April 1918 in Nürnberg) war ein deutscher Arzt und Afrikaforscher. ... Zwischen 1897 und 1907 erforschte er den Nordwesten von Deutsch-Ostafrika und wurde 1906 zum Kaiserlichen Residenten der mit Verordnung vom 20. Juni 1906 und mit Wirkung vom 15. November 1907 geschaffenen Residentur Ruanda von Deutsch-Ostafrika berufen. Kandt traf im August 1907 in Ruanda ein und gründete noch im gleichen Jahr seinen Residentensitz Kigali. Im Frühjahr 1914 war er zu einem Urlaub nach Deutschland gekommen und konnte wegen des Ausbruchs des Ersten Weltkrieges im August 1914 nicht nach Ruanda zurückkehren. Bald nach Kriegsausbruch meldete er sich als Arzt und ging an die Ostfront. … Kandt ist in Ruanda noch heute eine hoch geachtete Person. In seinem Haus in Kigali ist ein Naturkundemuseum eingerichtet worden und dort wird in einem Raum auch über ihn informiert … (wiki) // „Caput Nili" - Eine empfindsame Reise zu den Quellen des Nils erschien erstmals 1904, knapp zwei Jahre nach Kandts Rückkehr aus Ruanda. Das Werk wurde ein Erfolg, die zweite Auflage folgte schnell. Als der Verfasser sein Buch Anfang 1914 für die dritte Auflage in Form von ergänzenden Anmerkungen überarbeitete, versah er seine einführenden Worte mit der Überschrift „Zur dritten Fahrt". 1919, als die vierte Auflage erscheinen sollte, weilte Kandt nicht mehr unter den Lebenden. Sein langjähriger Freund, der Afrikaforscher Franz Stuhlmann, widmete dem Gefallenen einen Nachruf, den er „Zur vierten Fahrt" überschrieb. ... (Vorwort U.

He is best known for his use of the comparative method in the field of scientific anthropology the discovery of ginseng and his writings on the Iroquois. Lafitau was the first of the Jesuit missionaries in Canada to have a scientific point of view. Lafitau is considered the first of the modern ethnographers and a precursor of scientific ethnology for his work on the Iroquois. He developed a model of studying peoples that involved describing existing cultures on their own terms—not in comparison to European society. He distinguished generic and specific traits transforming the "generic savage" into specific tribal groups. He explained that "only from specific identities can genetic relations be inferred." Furthermore he was the first to declare "contemporary primitive cultures throw light upon the culture of ancient people and vice versa. Lafitau is remembered for applying the comparative method with a greater level of competency than any of his contemporaries. Through original field observations he was able to critique the works of earlier writers on Primitive peoples. By using the Comparative Method Lafitau rejected all theories of social and cultural change and instead used his study to demonstrate the similarities in customs practices and usages of the Native North Americans with diverse peoples from different continents and centuries. He consistently relied on the doctrine of degeneration: all men originally shared one religion with one God but over time as people migrated to separate margins of the earth where they then lost touch with the values and traditions of this one true religion and culture. Therefore Lafitau believed in the "psychic unity of mankind" and the doctrine of primitive monotheism. His major work written in French was first published in 1724 in Paris. It is entitled <em>Customs of the American Indians Compared with the Customs of Primitive Times</em> <em>Moeurs des Sauvages Amériquains Comparées aux Moeurs des Premiers Temps</em> and is 1100 pages in total. In 1974 William Fenton and Elizabeth Moore made the first translation into English available.</p><p>Lafitau published two other works. One <em>Histoire de Jean de Brienne Roy de Jérusalem et Empereur de Constantinople</em> Paris 1727 was released before he returned to Canada; it is little known and seldom seen. A two-volume <em>Histoire des découvertes et conquestes des Portugais dons le Nouveau Monde . . .</em> 1733 appeared after he came home to France. Frequently found in libraries it is not just a compilation of original sources but an attempt to make available to French readers a story of exploration and adventure otherwise denied to them; in the chronicles he sees a long development of customs hitherto unnoticed such as he had reported in the <em>Mœurs</em>; from them understood only he says in the original languages of the people who practice them he builds his "system" or philosophy of history and once more he is concerned too with the relation between custom and natural history or ecology.<br /><br /><strong>Condition:</strong><br /><br />Beautifully rebound in half leather.

Hill 1168 Second and best edition<br /><br />The <i>Alceste</i> brought Lord Amherst to China to serve as ambassador and specifically to negotiate the China trade at the time a matter of dispute between China and Great Britain. M'Leod who was surgeon on the ship describes the voyage out the various calls in the East Indies including touching at Batavia surveying off Korea the visit to Okinawa another to Manila and the shipwreck off the coast of Sumatra and subsequent rescue from Malay pirates. A brief but interesting interview with Napoleon at St. Helena is also included in the narrative. This was one of the most popular travel books of its time portraying the Far East to a much wider audience than had been reached by earlier accounts. The idyllic descriptions of Lewchew undoubtedly appealed to the romantic sensibilities of the era. Indeed buoyed by its success M'Leod published another work recounting his time as a slaver <i>A Voyage to Africa with some Account of the Manners and Customs of the Dahomian People</i>.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />Attractive half rebind some foxing through out with no spotting to plates else a very good copy.
