In the late nineteenth century, tens of thousands of porters carried ivory every year from the African interior to Bagamoyo, a port town at the Indian Ocean. In the opposite direction, they carried millions of meters of cloth, manufactured in the USA, Europe, and India. This book examines the centrality of the caravan trade, both culturally and economically, to Bagamoyo’s development and cosmopolitan character, while also exploring how this history was silenced when Bagamoyo was instead branded as a slave route town in 2006 in an attempt to qualify it for the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Автор: Гилберт Кит Честертон

Год издания: 

Гілберт Кіт Честертон (1874—1936) – визнаний класик англійської літератури, один з найяскравіших письменників першої половини XX століття. Його романи і численні есе стали класикою, проте любов читача принесли розповіді про патера Брауна – тихого, соромливого священика, що майстерно розкриває найбільш заплутані загадки і злочини. Видання цих оповідань розпочалоя 1911 року і розтягнулося на добру чверть століття, перетворившись на детективну епопею. Її мудрий і невибагливий герой навіть не завжди прагне покарати злочинця, але розставляє все по місцях. До видання «Записки патера Брауна» увійшли новели «Багряний місяць гори Меру», «Останній жалісливець Марнів», «Чоловік із двома бородами», «Проклята книга» та інші.
