As biografias são complementadas por textos extraidos das suas obras, que incluem alguns dos seus relatos etnográficos mais importantes. Dá-se especial atenção à imagem dos viajantes alemães sobre os africanos, bem como às condições e ao contexto em que posteriormente foram redigidos os textos publicados sobre esses encontros. Para além dos aspectos biográficos, interessam-nos sobretudo as condições e a história das origens das nossas fontes, as circunstâncias e o contexto geral da produção do nosso conhecimento. A bibliografia específica sobre cada um dos exploradores fornece, pela primeira vez, uma visão bibliográfica abrangente. As reproduções de algumas esculturas de colecções etnográficas trazidas por esses exploradores, que hoje admiramos como obras primas da arte africana, constituem um contraste visual ilucidativo em relação aos juízos gera...

Rather, such journeys involved a more or less intended mutual exchange, not just of goods, but of many other things, skills and knowledge as well. These acted as catalysts for manifold processes of appropriation and cultural innovation. Beyond the Kwango this exchange of cultural “extras” included primarily language (particularly Kimbundu and Portuguese), cultivated plants (such as rice, tomatoes, onions), crafts and other skills (for instance tailoring, reading and writing), profane as well as religious objects, or rather the spread of their basic forms (such as jackets, shoes, armchairs, crucifixes, drums and magic remedies). However, it also included less pleasant extras such as disease (smallpox), parasites (sand fleas), posse...

A few chiefdoms, which are traceable through the centuries in the sources, played an important role (Ndemba, Kimone kia Songa, Kafushe Kambare, etc.). A number of different factors were favourable to the resistance of the Kisama. The Portuguese were never really interested in this province, apart from the safeguarding of shipping on the Kwanza. No mineral wealth tempted them there. Even the conquest of the salt mine of Ndemba was undertaken mainly to clear and secure the way to the hoped for silver mines of Cambambe. On the one hand, the great lack of water during the dry season made the provisioning of an army there difficult. On the other hand, at least in the Kwanza region, the dreaded tropical diseases were endemic. For the slave trade, the interior, especially Kas...

Preliminary analyses influence the field work and often pass into the publication of the raw material (that is, the nature of the published material is anticipated in the very recording of the data). In turn, the publication of the interpretative analysis frequently contains quotations from the raw field data and should yield insights into the analytical process. 3 The accumulated (and rather extensive) literature on this subject has heretofore been devoted mainly to the analysis of traditions, and quite rightly so: if anything, it has tended to discuss the methodological problems associated with the analysis, sometimes drawing attention to these problems for the first time.4 After Jan Vansina, it was...
