Add to basketFIRST EDITION. Large 8vo. (25.5 x 17 cm). pp.v+289. Publisher's original pale green wrappers, many quires still uncut and unopened. Text in Swahili (transliterated into Roman letters by Brode) with accompanying German translation. Back cover somewhat soiled and dampstained, backstrip dusty, fore-edge scuffed, otherwise fine. Tip…pu Tip (c.1832-1905), whose real name Hamad ibn Muhammad ibn Jum'ah ibn Rajab ibn Muhammad ibn Sa'id al Murjab was a remarkable figure. An Afro-Omani ivory and slave owner and trader, explorer, governor and plantation owner, he worked for a succession of sultans of Zanzibar and was the Sultan of Utetera, a short-lived state in Kasongo, Maniema ruled by himself and his son Sefu. His vast welath was acquired from trading in slaves for Zanzibar's clove plantations, using the proceeds to establish clove plantations on Zanzibar. As part of the large and lucrative trade, he led many trading expeditions into Central Africa, constructing profitable trading posts deep into the Congo Basin region and thus becoming the best-known slave and ivory trader in Africa, supplying much of the world with ivory from enslaved Africans. He is significant for establishing a vast, semi-independent empire in the Congo basin, assisting European explorers like Livingstone and Stanley, helping to guide them to the interior of East Africa. Tippu Tip wrote or dictated his biography in Swahili after retiring in Zanzibar. This biography is the first of its kind in an East African language and was translated from Swahili into German by Heinrich Brode. In this volume, which contains 8 articles, the autobiography of Tippu Tip spans pages 175-278. Also included are articles on Kirundi grammar by J.M.M. van der Burght, the language of the Watwa Pygmies (also by J.M.M. van der Burght), the Herero people by G. Viehe, language samples from German Southwest Africa by P.H. Brincker, and a contribution to the history of the Ewe people in Togo by C. Spiess.
