内容説明・目次
内容説明
This book tells the story of William Pritchard, who was born in Tahiti of missionary parents in 1829, was given extraordinary power by Fijian chiefs, changed Fijian history, and was tried and dismissed by a British government in a gross miscarriage of justice. Drawing extensively on letters, memoranda, and memoirs written by those involved, it also paints a picture of an extraordinary time when the people of Polynesia and the West were getting used to dealing with each other but when most of Polynesia remained self-governing. "Andrew E. Robson" is associate dean at the College of Letters and Science, University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, United States.
