    Extractions: Home The Club The Ridgeback Hunting ... Gallery The red hunter with the ridge The well known history of origin of the Ridgeback-"Ridge" leads us back to the native dogs of the Khoi-Khoi and Bantu tribes. In earlier days, tramping hunters and pastoral tribes came all the way across Central Africa with their dogs up to the Cape of Good Hope where they got together with the first Europeans, namely the Portuguese sailors in the 17th century. The written reports of these traders and adventurers confirm the existence of dogs from native tribes "which have the fur on their back growing towards the front". These broadly travelled men also found it extremely remarkable that these similar to jackal striped, unhandsome creatures were exceedingly useful and faithful to their owners. A few generations later it was common and widely spread amongst the European settlers to have a functional cross-breed, which often had the characteristic ridge of the native dog and who proofed themselves to be a watchdog for the herd and farms as well as a hunting dog in the bush. A couple of these beloved Boer Dogs were brought back from Swellendam Cape by the missionary Charles Heim from his dangerous tracks in the Matabe Land the former South Rhodesia, where he settled down around 1870. The adventurer and big game hunter Cornelis van Rooyen borrowed the ridge carrying dog couple from the Cape to be his hunting companions. Because of their remarkable dedication van Rooyen began to carefully use the inheritance of these two dogs for his pack of existing cross-breeds.

A this point painting, rather than sculpture, predominates. Frank McEwen (1908-1994), who had been hired by the Rhodesian authorities to introduce European high art into the National Gallery of Rhodesia, seems to have been a subversive force from the very beginning, since he seems to have been determined from his arrival to develop and then popularize the art of the country's indigenous peoples. According to Joceline Mawdsley, "he quietly began encouraging local people to try their hand at art initially, it would appear, in media with which they were familiar (ceramics, basketwork and weaving)," but he also introduced European painting on canvas. Mawdsley's discussions with the pioneering sculptures suggest that he increasingly turned to promoting "sculpture after seeing early work by men as

    Extractions: The following excerpts about Northern Rhodesia's early colonial history are taken from a catalogue of the British South Africa Company at the Empire Exhibition of 1936 - 1937 in Johannesburg. The piece reflects the prevailing attitudes towards Empire and the African people during the 1930's. It doesn't necessarily reflect the current attitudes of the publishers or the readers of this Web site. I n the 'eighties of last century the Great Powers of Europe suddenly woke up to the fact that, while every other part of the habitable globe had been pre-empted by one or another, there still remained a vast region in the centre and south of Africa which could only be vaguely described by map-makers as "under native chiefs." Apart from Cape Colony, Natal and the two Boer Republics at the south and south-east of the continent and some languishing Portuguese garrisons on the coasts and the Lower Zambesi, Africa, from the Congo southwards, was "under native chiefs." An astute monarch, Leopold, King of the Belgians, first drew attention to the possibility of tropical colonies as a source of profit, and called an International Congress which led to the foundation of the Congo Free State in 1878. From that time on attention was more and more directed to the continent, although it was still generally regarded as "Darkest Africa," and quite unfit for European settlement. Explorers, like Livingstone and Stanley, it is true, had lifted the veil over some parts of the mysterious interior, and missionaries, undeterred by months of arduous travel and the hardships of life among savages, had penetrated from the Cape northwards to the countries of the Matabele and Barotse, and from the East Coast to Lake Nyasa, where they founded a civilised community.

[Change image] [Upload image] The indigenous hunter-gatherer occupants of Zambia began to be displaced or absorbed by more advanced migrating tribes about 2 000 years ago. The major waves of Bantu-speaking immigrants began in the 15th century with the greatest influx between the late 17th and early 19th centuries. They came primarily from the Luba and Lunda tribes of southern Zaire and northern Angola but were joined in the 19th century by Ngoni peoples from the south. By the latter part of that century the various peoples of Zambia were largely established in the areas they currently occupy. Except for an occasional Portuguese explorer the area lay untouched by Europeans for centuries. After the mid-19th century it was penetrated by Western explorers missionaries and traders. David Livingstone in 1855 was the first European to see the magnificent falls on the Zambezi River. He named the falls after Queen Victoria and the Zambian town near the falls is named after him. In 1888 Cecil Rhodes spearheading British commercial and political interests in Central Africa obtained a mineral rights concession from local chiefs. In the same year Northern and Southern Rhodesia (now Zambia and Zimbabwe respectively) were proclaimed a British sphere of influence. Southern Rhodesia was annexed formally and granted self-government in 1923 and the administration of Northern Rhodesia was transferred to the British colonial office in 1924 as a protectorate.

I am particularly interested in cultural aspects of that history, focusing on the interactions between African communities and the white immigrants during the first forty years of white occupation. This interest has led me to investigate gender, sexuality, legal systems, witchcraft, ethnography and translation. I am currently working on a book that combines all these interests under the umbrella title, due for delivery to Heinemann in December 2004. I am interested in all aspects of research on Zimbabwe. I compile an annual Directory of Current Research on Zimbabwe, which is circulated at the annual Research Day on Zimbabwe, held each June at St Antony's College, Oxford.

    Extractions: an enterprise of (Rhodesians Worldwide Magazine) In an effort to preserve some of the images and film footage from Rhodesia I began a search to locate this footage, and over the past few years have been lucky enough to stumble upon a fair amount of footage which was of average quality. Recently, however, Rob Lewin shared with me some footage shot by his father during his association with R.T.V. and it was at this time that this project began to take shape. Rob's Father spent a good number of years in association with R.T.V. and upon leaving Rhodesia brought with him the original 16mm film footage shot by him and his company, and this footage is in EXCELLENT condition having been well taken care of over the years. This footage has not been rescued from rubbish bins, nor is it of second quality. It also contains material long forgotten in the depths of time. Since we first started this project I have received from new Zealand 21 reels of 16mm movie originally distributed by Rhodesian Information Services. It has been cleaned and transferred onto video tapes and now during a long summer project onto DVDs so that the quality will be preserved. Video tapes can be sent anywhere in the world through our conversions systems, but the DVDs are viewable only in machines that play Region 1 DVDs.

    Extractions: Centre for Cultural and Media Studies , University of Natal, Durban, South Africa This paper attempts to link the theory and practise of colonial film-making in Northern Rhodesia and Nyasaland from the 1930s to the 1960s. After a review of the history of colonial film making in the region, the paper relates cinema practice both to the stated objectives of the film-makers and to the ideology which the films purveyed to Central African audiences. The forms which film policy took in Central Africa are intimately linked with the British administration’s efforts to obtain a consensus for colonial rule. Aware of Central Africa’s extreme underdevelopment, the Colonial Office seemed at times to identify film as a partial panacea to solve major problems of communication and modernisation in this peripheral corner of the Empire.

In 1879 he brought two ridged dogs from the Swellendam district, to his new house. The dogs were Lorna and Powder. The mission was located at a crossroad and stop place for the many travellers crossing the region, among whom a number of "white hunters" after big african preys,elephants and lions.

    Extractions: NAVIGATION RHODESIA ZIMBABWE ICELAND A CASE FOR RHODESIA On 3rd March, 1978, the Prime Minister, Mr. Ian Smith, signed an accord with three internal Black Nationalist leaders, Bishop Muzorewa, Reverend Sithole and Senator Chief Chirau. A Transitional Government was formed to pave the way for black majority rule, one-man-one-vote elections, subsequently scheduled to be held on 20th April, 1979. The spirit of the March Agreement thus signalled the end of the post-UDI period in Rhodesia's history. 1. INTRODUCTION When on 11th November, 1965, Rhodesia had severed her ties with the British Government, the action came as the end of an intensive series of negotiations begun some three years previously. But the process which led to it had begun long before and it cannot be understood without an awareness of Rhodesia's early history and in particular her unusual constitutional position vis-a-vis the United Kingdom. Rhodesia had been a self-governing British Crown colony since 1923, and before that had been administered by a commercial company under a Royal Charter. At no time had she been ruled by the Colonial Office, been administered by British Government officials or been occupied by British troops. The reason for these departures from normal British practice lies in the earliest years of Rhodesia's existence. 2. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

     Extractions: Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... R > Rhodesia A B C D ... Z The earliest attempt to evangelize Matabeleland was made in 1879 when three Jesuit Fathers Jesuit Fathers Jesuit mission stations on the Chikuni and Nguerere Rivers. These missions are under the jurisdiction of the Jesuit Prefect Apostolic of the Zambesi, resident in Bulawayo. There are 35 priests, 30 lay brothers, and 83 nuns in charge of the missions. The Catholic native population is about 3000. For the missions of North-eastern Rhodesia see NYASSA, VICARIATE, APOSTOLIC OF. The land of the mission stations in Rhodesia is usually a grant from the Government made on condition of doing missionary work and is therefore inalienable without a special order in Council. Native schools, in some cases, are in receipt of a small grant from the Government. The Jesuit Fathers have one school for white boys (120) at Bulawayo, while the Sisters of the Third Order of St. Dominic have three: at Bulawayo (210), Salisbury (130) and Gwelo (40). These schools are undenominational and receive grants from the Government. Hence Catholics who were first in the field, have a very considerable share in the education of the country. New Government schools have been built recently in Salisbury, Bulawayo, and Gwelo and other places in order to meet the growing demand for education and they have, so far, succeeded in filling their school-rooms without taking many pupils from the schools managed by Catholics. The chief source of information about the Zambesi Mission is the
