By C. G. Teichelmann, C. W. Schurmann, of the Lutheran Missionary Society, Dresden. Adelaide: published by the Authors, at the Native Location, 1840 Wrpps, 8vo. [2],viii,[2],24,[2],76pp. errata leaf. "In presenting the following pages to the public, the writers deem it their duty to state the objects and motives for doing so. Th…e chief motives are - to keep up the good understanding, and to facilitate the intercourse, between the Aborigines and Europeans; to give to the latter a medium of communication, and, especially, assistance to those who may be inclined to acquire the language; to enliven the hopes of those who wish the christianization and civilization of their colored fellow-men, showing them that a race of human beings possessing a language so regular in its formation and construction as that of the South Australian natives, cannot be incapable of either; and to refute premature and unjust detractions concerning the mental capabilities of the Aborigines of Australia." Contemporary signature dated 1841 to front endpaper with a note in German. Wrappers slightly marked and worn, a very nice copy of the first edition in the publisher's blue wrappers. COPAC lists four copies. [Ferguson: 3102] We have been selling antiquarian books on Africa, Oceania, archaeology, anthropology, travel and the ancient world for over forty years.
