ISBN: 9789004543744 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

They have adopted things like tables, chairs, knives, forks, spoons, plates, cups and saucers, iron pots, beds, blankets, European clothing, and later electronic apparatus. Thus they claimed modernity, respectability and political inclusion. This book is the first systematic analysis of this development. It argues that the desire to possess such goods formed a major part of the drive behind the anti-apartheid struggle, and that the demand to consume has significantly...

Status and Respectability in the Cape Colony, 1750-1870: A Tragedy of Manners
ISBN: 9780521121255 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This compelling example of the new cultural history of South Africa is a subtle and wide-ranging study of status and respectability in the colonial Cape. Focusing on domestic relationships, gender, education, and religion, it analyzes values and modes of thinking current in different social strata, arguing that these cultural factors were related to high political developments. The result is a rich account of changes in social identity that accompanied the transition from Dutch to British overrule, and the development of white racism and ideologies of resistance to white domination.
