I am very happy and incredibly impatient to welcome at @BaselHistory @UniBasel_en @UniBasel the pathbreaking research of @glchouin, who will tell us how is team is digging (literally) into the Medieval history of West Africa. 22 Nov 2023, h18.15!!
On 04-10-2023, we present our first version of #htr transcriptions of 5 million scans from the Dutch East India Company archives. It makes accessible copied documents (OBP) from the Indian Ocean and Indonesian archipelago that provide a lens on world history @_GLOBALISE
I am so glad to see the new issue of @Afrmed in print, and to take another look at my latest article in its final shape! Congratulations to the editorial team for the great work, the journal looks fabulous and I can't wait to read the other contributions 🤓 #Africa #Water #WWII

Quello che ancora non è chiaro è che nei CPR non ci finiscono banalmente “criminali e delinquenti” ma persone senza permesso di soggiorno. Ad es.: una persona straniera che perde il lavoro, e quindi anche il permesso, dopo un lungo periodo di inserimento in Italia.
The semester starts today @UniBasel_en and so does our African History research seminar! Join us at @BaselHistory today at noon, with speakers Franziska Rüedi and @clr_ncolas discussing their current researches in #humanitarianism #gender #Christianity
Ruined city of Gede in Kenya. Established in the 11th century and abandoned during the 17th.
Bringing together traditional foundation myths, historical accounts of kingmaking, and a clash over #landrights during the French colonisation, Pietro Repishti explains the intricate relation with the land in Porto-Novo: one of the foundational themes in #Africanhistory, indeed.
Our third article on Africa V/1, 2023 is by Pietro Repishti and deals with land property and #spirits of the land in what is now called #Benin, more precisely in Porto-Novo. 👉bit.ly/3O0PEiu #vodun #strangerking #africankings #urbanhistory #Dahomey #yoruba
Federica Toldo provides us with a deep ethnography of xinguilamento based on her protracted involvement with the communities of the island of #Luanda. From the earliest 16th-century historical documents to post-independence #Angola, what has become of the dance for #ancestors?
This has some vibes I've already heard from @tschukutschuku. Plus, I would love to know more about similar ritual offerings to the sea in southern Africa, now that I've read a quite fascinating description dated March 1592...

One of my favourite photos of the Katse dam site, #Lesotho, before construction began. I took it 35 years ago this month. Zoom in and you can see the ruins of Ntate Poulo Katse's homestead on the ridge in the middle distance on the left.
The article is a detailed study of the political life of #Lesotho as seen through the lenses of its #Parliament and its main political parties. Here, Whang provides a different angle on the so-called failure of #democracy in early #postcolonial #Africa. 👉bit.ly/3O0PEiu
This is a great article on #Lesotho!! I recommend it to those interested in the intricate and rather cynical political history of the country. And to those who already know a lot about it 🤓 @LesothoJohn @rachelsusanking @MatteoGrilli12

The third review on Africa V/1, 2023 deals with Arrigo Pallotti's study of #Tanzania's role in the #decolonisation of southern Africa @Mond_Edu (2022). Book: bit.ly/46D9AiN Review: bit.ly/3O0PEiu
Written by a king with the aid if a courtly aristocracy and edited by one of the most established historians, the 'History of Ashanti' by Prempeh II shows how complex and yet fruitful is the discipline of #Africanhistory, as Rathbone highlights in his review. #Africanhistorians
Richard Rathbone authored the second review on Africa V/1, 2023, offering us an entry point to a monumental work: the 'History of Ashanti' by Asantehene Prempeh II, edited by Tom McCaskie, @OUPAcademic for @BritishAcademy_ in 2022. bit.ly/3O0PEiu bit.ly/44ya73P

Associazione Studi Africani in Italia - PhD Thesis Prize in African Studies. Apply by February 15, 2024 #ASAI #PhDThesis #Africa 🧐👇🤞 asaiafrica.org/premio-asai-20…
It's been a year since I was employed as an academic. I wasn't sure then what was next, but since I've steadily made a career doing research work I find interesting using skills and knowledge I developed as a historian. I'm happier, less stressed and less overworked.
Professional news: my contract at Leiden ends this month so I'm leaving academia. I'm good at my job. I publish a lot (3 books, 21 articles/chapters), got great teaching evaluations and supervised 4 PhDs since finishing my own in 2016. It's not enough though.
