Sunset limited : an autobiography of Creole / by Gaudin, Wendy A.;

Includes bibliographical references.The Marian apparition -- A blond roux is the lightest one -- Sun fire leo -- Holy name -- Sunset limited -- Taxonomy -- The habit and the ghost shirt -- A work of fiction -- Mounds -- "My father was a French doctor" -- Miss Audrey's world -- Topophilia -- Another country -- Time is a wheel."What is the true meaning of the word "Creole?" Is there one true meaning, or is the term contextual, geographical, temporal? Is Creole an invention of the colonial world, or an idea that sprung from the national period in Louisiana's history? In "Sunset Limited," Wendy Gaudin addresses the complex and contested history of Louisiana Creole identity and how this multilayered, international, bilingual, transracial history has manifested itself in her own diasporic Creole family. This book is supported by a rich and growing body of literature that delves deeply into the specifics of Creole history. Historians, ethnographers, journalists, memoirists, poets, playwrights, and genealogists, among others, have used "Creole hybridities" as the subjects of their research, their writing, their art and performance. Louisiana Creoles are fascinating to those who see them as racially ambiguous Others; they are useful to those who make arguments for the legitimacy of mixed-race identity; they are challenging to those who propose strict racial binaries. In a story that connects Wendy Gaudin's own family history with the broader stories of race, indigeneity, and prejudice, "Sunset Limited" summarizes a long and complex history-too often elided or simplified to fit within today's classifications of race and nationality-that spans decades and continents. "Sunset Limited" sets the stage for the historical and geographical context within which Creole identity emerged in Louisiana and the broader Atlantic world. Gaudin interweaves her personal experience of Creoleness with the history of the many Louisiana peoples-native, French, Spanish, Black-whose stories made their mark on the state in its earliest days. Racial classifications in Louisiana grew out of its complex colonization and immigration history, but later, Anglo-American hegemony began to shift the meanings of the raced and gendered identities of Creole populations. "Sunset Limited" tells the story of a family, a people, and an identity"--

Includes bibliographical references and index."Cultural Heritage Management in Africa explores the diversity of Africa's cultural heritage by analyzing how and why this heritage has been managed, and by considering the factors that continue to influence management strategies and systems throughout the African continent. Including contributions from prominent scholars and heritage professionals working across Africa, the volume presents critical, contemporary perspectives on the state of heritage in the area. Chapters analyze the practices that emanated from different colonial experiences and consider what impact these had - and continue to have - on the management of African heritage. It also critically examines the ideological influence of independence movements on the African continent's management and remembering of heritage, and considers whether there are any differences in heritage management between countries that experienced armed conflicts and those that did not. The volume will be the first to critically assess the state of heritage management now, at a time when vital conversations about the balance between heritage and development is ongoing and the actions of new players have begun to impact the management and practice of heritage in the region. Cultural Heritage Management in Africa will be essential reading for those engaged in the study of museums and heritage, development, archeology, anthropology, history and African studies. It will also be of interest to heritage and museum professionals who wish to learn more about the decolonization of heritage"--

Detailed maps show where each species has been found and plot the gradual spread of humans around the world. The book has been fully updated to include the latest discoveries and research--including the newly discovered species Homo naledi--and presents the latest thinking on some of the most captivating questions in science, such as whether modern humans and Neanderthals interacted with each other.
