Abstract

L'édition des "papiers Lapière" offre aux auteurs une occasion privilégiée de revenir sur la révolte militaire de 1895 à Luluabourg-Malandji et son cortège d'expéditions guerrières en éclairant la scène coloniale d'un regard critique sur l'abondante historiographie des événements. Un large examen des matériaux disponibles, tant de source primaire que secondaire, permet également de revenir sur la manière dont les professionnels de l'histoire les ont exploités : "the point of history is to study historians, not to study the past" (Evans 1997).

Abstract

In this comprehensive picture of Belgian colonialism in the Congo, Lewis Gann and Peter Duignan trace the formation of the colonial state that became Zaire, considering it in the light of colonial experience in other African territories. Whereas most studies have focused on the conquest and subjugation of the African population, this study probes the colonial apparatus itself, investigating the attitudes and behavior of the civil servants and soldiers who built the empire.Originally published in 1979.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Abstract

Together, the Royal Museum for Central Africa in Tervuren, Belgium, and the Institut des Musées Nationaux du Zaire (IMNZ) in the Congo have defined and marketed Congolese art and culture. In Authentically African, Sarah Van Beurden traces the relationship between the possession, definition, and display of art and the construction of cultural authenticity and political legitimacy from the late colonial until the postcolonial era. Her study of the interconnected histories of these two institutions is the first history of an art museum in Africa, and the only work of its kind in English.Drawing on Flemish-language sources other scholars have been unable to access, Van Beurden illuminates the politics of museum collections, showing how the IMNZ became a showpiece in Mobutu’s effort to revive “authentic” African culture. She reconstructs debates between Belgian and Congolese museum professionals, revealing how the dynamics of decolonization played out in the fields of the museum and international heritage conservation. Finally, she casts light on the art market, showing how the traveling displays put on by the IMNZ helped intensify collectors’ interest and generate an international market for Congolese art.The book contributes to the fields of history, art history, museum studies, and anthropology and challenges existing narratives of Congo’s decolonization. It tells a new history of decolonization as a struggle over cultural categories, the possession of cultural heritage, and the right to define and represent cultural identities.

Abstract

In 1967 werd in Chastre een gedachteniskapel opgericht na het drama van Kongolo van 1962, waarbij twintig spiritijnen vermoord werden. Wat men niet kon voorzien was dat er onder de missionarissen en burgers in Congo nog zoveel meer slachtoffers zouden vallen tijdens de daaropvolgende simba-opstand (1964-1966). In het totaal werden op de buitenmuur van de kapel uiteindelijk 216 namen van slachtoffers aangebracht, waaronder alle 165 religieuze katholieke slachtoffers van de simba-opstand. 00Een toevallige bezoeker van dit memoriaal zal zich wellicht niet realiseren welke dramatische gebeurtenissen zich achter deze namenlijst hebben afgespeeld. Van daar ook de nood aan een historisch onderzoek als dit om die realiteit, hoe luguber ook, te reconstrueren. 00De grote vraag waarom de simba?s de religieuzen als opvallend doelwit wilden treffen, is niet te herleiden tot het simpele antwoord dat de religieuzen dienden te sterven omwille van hun onverbrekelijke band met het westerse koloniale systeem of omwille van hun geloof. Hoe kan men immers verklaren dat de ene simba?s hun vrienden of beschermers leken, terwijl anderen hun ergste vijanden? Of waarom in bepaalde streken en bisdommen van Congo de simba?s hun razernij uitwerkten en in andere helemaal niet? Monocausaliteit is in een historische interpretatie van feiten en gebeurtenissen meestal een foute insteek. Gebaseerd op tot op heden ongekende oen onaangeroerde bronnen en getuigenissen gaat dit boek op zoek naar antwoorden.
