Etat : Gut. Vorwort Sture Lagercrantz. VII; 198 S.; Illustrationen; 30,5 cm; fadengeh. Orig.-Pappband. Ein gutes Ex.; Einband etwas berieben u. nachgedunkelt. - Englisch. - It is a little more than fifteen years since I undertook the edition of Karl Laman's copious notes from his many years among the Sundi. With the completion of his fourth volume, Laman's work has now in its entirety been made available to international research. I have of course been faithful to the original manuscript, although obvious inexactitudes have when necessary been corrected. For this I am greatly indebted to Dr. Efraim Andersson, sometime professor of Religious History, who has proved himself an unfailing source of help in solving the problems that presented themselves throughout the years since I embarked in the publication of Laman's work. I am also grateful to Mr. Harald Faith-Ell who has again undertaken the illustrations, and to Mrs. Catherine G. Sundstrom who has translated the manuscript with her usual skill. . (Vorwort S. Lagercrantz) // INHALT : Preface ----- I Mnemonics, Symbols and Signs ----- II Language ----- III Arithmetic ----- IV Games ----- V Neighbouring Tribes ----- VI Conceptions of the Universe ----- VII Heavenly Bodies ----- VIII The Human Body ----- IX Portents ----- X Proverbs ----- XI Art ----- XII Dance ----- XIII Song and Music ----- XIV Tales. // . The ntoyo bird not only announces the approach of the kyanza season, but also predicts many deaths in the community. For that reason it is also known as the bird of the dead. Like many other birds, it also announces the approach of the new moon. When the raven scours the villages, the ntombo season is near. When the kinsengwa bird turns red, the ndoolo season is coming. This season is heralded by several other signs, such as the fruit of the ngyengye turning yellow, the ripening of the beans, or the nsokya grass and ngudi a boola setting ears. Pelicans passing by in the sky herald the approach of the sivu dry season. When the dogs start pairing, the kyanza season is near. The mbambi lizard announces that the ndoolo season is near and that several trees, such as the ngyengye, mango, and mpiwa, are about to bear fruit. When the mbungu za mputu beetles swarm over the flowers of the wormwood, the dry season is approaching. Similarly, a swarm of nkenge a nkala beetles on the wormwood or pea flowers announces the coming of this season. When driver ants invade the houses to look for food, the ndoolo season is not far off. Someone who dreams that driver ants are swarming over his legs or body will be afflicted by a disease with open sores. His limbs will start aching, and he "will not recover from his illness until a whole season, or even up to two years have passed. It is clearly an extremely nasty dream to have. Clusters of mamene-mene flies on people's legs, and the appearance of common flies mean that the ntombo season is approaching. Funza has various signs to reveal future events. Trees, grasses, flowers, fruit, and corn in the ear are all heralds of specific seasons. When the palms see that the beans are ripening, they postpone forming male flowers, signifying that the kyanza season has come with its palm-wine. When the pineapple ripens, the time has also come for the malombo fruit to ripen. When the mfuma, mutele, or mfyolongo trees start sprouting green leaves, the ntombo season is near. Matyokula birds announce the coming of the dawn, and of noontime when the palm-wine has to be tapped. The call of the matyokula is the signal for the palm-wine tappers to grab their climbing-slings and set to work. The bird also sings just before sundown. A cluster of many stars (the Pleiads) predicts an abundance of peanuts for that season. In the old days, when a whirlwind set a grass fire going at tremendous speed, it was said: "This fire will burn a house, or claim a human victim". Twitches in various parts of the body can indicate a number of different things. Intermittent twitching of the eyelids, for instance, predicts a death, sorrow, and weeping. Twitches in the skin by the eyebrows signify a death; if it is on the left side, it means that a grown woman will die. A twitching upper lip is a sign that food will be forthcoming, either through hunting or fishing, or from a friend. Twitches in the shoulder predict the arrival of someone carrying a bag over his shoulder with meat to eat. Twitches in the buttocks predict good luck in hunting. It may also mean that one will be attending a law case. (Seite 46) Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 1200.

Etat : Gut. Vorwort Sture Lagercrantz. 163 S.; Illustrationen (tls. auch farbig); 30,5 cm; fadengeh. Orig.-Pappband. Ein gutes Ex.; Einband etwas berieben u. nachgedunkelt. - Englisch. - In publishing this part of the late missionary Karl Laman's work the same rules have been observed as in the publication of Part I. Thus Laman's chapter sequence has been followed while repetitions and contradictions have been eliminated as far as possible. A short, contradictory section with two genealogical tables has been excluded. The chapter on diseases has been rearranged with the help of Docent Ivar Werner, and the final check with the original manuscript, which is written in Kongo, has been performed by Fil. Dr. Efraim Andersson. The illustrated objects from Laman's collection were placed at my disposal through the kindness of Prof. Sigvald Linne (The State Ethnographic Museum, Stockholm). The drawings have been done, with unfailing interest and accuracy, by Mr. Harald Faith-Ell (Stockholm). The translation of what from many points of view proved to be a very difficult text has been carried out with great skill by Mr. Donald Burton (Stockholm). . (Vorwort S. Lagercrantz) // INHALT : Preface. ----- 1. Childhood. ----- 2. Marriage. ----- 3. Family relations. ----- 4. Sickness. ----- 5. Death. ----- 6. Ownership. ----- 7. Civil law. ----- 8. The penal code. ----- 9. Social organization ----- 10. Administration. // . When a nganga has been summoned he asks whether the woman giving birth or her husband have not been guilty of fornication. The culprit must then confess this to the other and the child will now be born. Many secret sins are revealed in this way, and the custom is still practised. If there is no such confession to be made and the confinement is nevertheless protracted, threats and even violence are resorted to. In this case the woman is said to be afraid of giving birth and wants to get rid of the child, and the husband and others therefore frighten her in many ways. The husband clamours and shouts grimly, whets his knife on the ground to cut a coil of rope and go and hang himself in wrath and sorrow. The chief of the village also makes a hullaballoo. The woman's brothers and others may also come and express their wrath in many ways. They may frighten her with guns, cover her eyes, threaten to choke her in the belief that through fear she may get the courage and the force to give birth. If despite all this she does not start expelling the child with force, and the child's head begins to appear, but vanishes again, then her female assistants commence to rail at her terribly, and twist her ears and nose, so that the strainings necessarily become forceful. Sometimes the pregnant woman is not allowed to enter the house, in spite of the chill of the night. The assistants tear off her rags of clothing instead, rail at her and say: "Why should you be tormented like this unnecessarily? Listen, how the water rushes forward. See, his head is pointed like a banana-flower. The ears are projecting and as big as the top of a mushroom. The eyes are protruding like the eyes of a hanged goat. Are you going to let another's child perish? I think that you, too, have been excreted (nenwa), eh? Well, how is it? Say, is there no difficulty in giving birth? Take your excrement, then, that you are expelling and make it into a child." They may also say: "Eh, squeeze strongly this spook! Eh, squeeze strongly this corpse. The fold of the neck is left. Eh, strain hard, or are you going to be rid of the child?" and so forth. Sometimes the husband of the woman sacrifices a hen and invokes Nakongo, Mak-wende or some other nkisi to drive away the spirits and bandoki that are preventing the delivery. The nganga may also assist by giving medicine to the woman. If the birth is proceeding passably, they must sing by way of encouragement: "Eh, hold fast (takalala). Eh, hold fast surely. Eh, only keep it up. Eh, only strain. Eh, strain. Eh, separate (baasa). Eh, split in two." After a short time: "Eh, the neck-ring. Eh, the neck." If it is a boy they cry: "Eh, a male nganga, his mother's glory." If it is a girl, they are quite silent. They say merely: "A big child, she was almost unable to give birth to it."
