内容説明・目次
内容説明
Popularly known as the "blue people", the Tuareg have for centuries carved a living in the heart of the Sahara and on the vast plains of the Sahel. Unwilling to accept the political authority of others, they first fought the French and now claim their right to self-determination in Niger, Mali and Algeria. Anthropologist Johannes Nicolaisen and his wife Ida, spent years living with them in tiny camps and following them by camel on long caravan journeys, and this two-volume set is their contribution to our understanding of the culture and society of the pastoral Tuareg. The first volume is an analysis of Tuareg everyday life and the intricacies of their pastoralism, from how they cope with the environment to their knowledge and varied practices of stock-breeding. Subsequent chapters analyse Tuareg food habits, crafts, dress codes, and the rich variations in tents and other dwellings. The second volume discusses the historical origins and transformation of Tuareg social life, from their various political systems to the economic and social importance of slavery.
Insight is offered into kinship, while their intricate behavioural rules, and the role of women, Tuareg marriage preferences, sexual behaviour and wedding ceremonies are all analysed.
