Paperback. Condizione: New. Language: English. About the Book :-The author reveals that his main reasons for writing this Vocabulary have been as follow -- to enable officers deputed on duty to the Nicobars to keep up - communication with this truly remarkable people, and especially he wishes to 'secure' to the scientific world the languages of these people, who are fast dying out. Several small collections have been at different times made, from which he has extracted only a few words that were unknown to him, and which have been noted' in every case. The last column in this Vocabulary contains all the words used by the aborigines of the Andamans which he has been able to collect. He represents with a short account of the natives, their customs and habits and of previous attempts at colonization in a vivid manner. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. Scholars believe, and we concur, that this work is important enough to be preserved, reproduced, and made generally available to the public. About the Author:-Frederik Adolph de Roepstorff was a Danish philologist who worked in the Andaman penal colony in India, in charge of the Nicobar Islands, where he was shot dead by a convict. He studied the languages of Andaman and Nicobar tribes and collected numerous specimens of fauna and flora. The Andaman masked owl (Tyto deroepstorffi) was named after him by Hume.He studied in Copenhagen and at Horsens Statsskole graduating in 1863. He went to India in 1867 and became an extra assistant superintendent in the Andaman Islands penal colony and later became in-charge of the Nicobar Islands. His work was to supervise the prisoners.

His wife was a missionary and continued her work in the Nicobars. The penal settlement largely consisted of Indian sepoys from the 1857 rebellion.
