| 概要 | This volume presents for the first time the selected photographs of the renowned British anthropologist Isaac Schapera (1905-2003). Taken between 1929 and 1940, largely during his earliest work among ...he Kgatla peoples of Bechuanaland (now Botswana), these images reveal an emotional engagement and an aesthetic impulse that Schapera seldom expressed in his writings. Covering a broad spectrum of activities, they include depictions of everything from pot making, thatching, and cattle herding to village architecture, vernacular medicine, rainmaking ceremonies, and initiation rites. Visually fascinating and of exceptional quality, Schapera's photographs capture the uniqueness of an African people at a particular time and place. They are contextualized in Jean and John Comaroff's introduction, while Adam Kuper's biographical sketch of Schapera provides new insight into the life of the photographer. Picturing a Colonial Past reveals not only a rare side of old Botswana, but also of one of the most famous anthropologists who worked there. Book jacket.
