Jacket design by Paul Perlow. keywords: Africa South Africa Autobiography. DESCRIPTION - This is South Africa as we've never seen it before. This is the black man's South Africa, a memoir and testimony from the other side. Mafa Molapatene Kotoleleele Ramusi, a member of the Batlokwa tribe of the Molemole region, and the first of his Babirwa clan to be educated in Western schools, went from pastoral beginnings to become one of the greatest warriors against racial laws in the courtrooms of South Africa. His path, rough and fraught with tension, winds through the many conflicting selves formed and fostered in him by the confrontation of African tradition with Christianity, Western institutions, and the white minority government's policy of apartheid. With his education constantly interrupted - his family lacked the money to pay school fees from which white children were exempt - Mr. Ramusi, as servant to poor Afrikaners and janitor in hostels for black migrant laborers, saw the beginnings of resistance. A longtime associate of Nelson Mandela, and early member of the Pan Africanist Congress, he covers the many forms of struggle including the violence by which he ultimately lost his son at the hands of South African police. Ramusi describes the devastating conditions of the townships and Bantustan tribal reservations. His attempts to bring real independence to the Bantustan legislatures in the 1970s brought him nothing but harassment from the government and an eight-year exile in the United States. He returned to Chicago, where he'd gone in 1960 to study anthropology at Northwestern University. It was during this time he heard of his son's guerrilla activities and subsequent murder in Swaziland. Mr. Ramusi has returned to South Africa and continues to defend victims of racial laws in the Supreme Court. In order to protect himself and his law practice and to protect the members of the anti-apartheid organizations mentioned, details about specific events in the book remain vague. Soweto, My Love is a memoir, a political testament, and, above all, a moving celebration of life in which the author maintains hope and continues the struggle for a free and democratic South Africa. inventory #11392.

Within its chronological limits (primarily works by artists born before 1825), the Pierpont Morgan Library's collection of over 9,000 old master drawings is unexcelled in the United States. One of its important strengths is the group of some 800 Netherlandish drawings, among the finest such collections in this country. For many years, scholars have remarked admiringly on the Morgan holdings while lamenting the lack of any publication beyond exhibition catalogues and checklists. The Pierpont Morgan Library and Princeton University Press are now pleased to publish the first definitive catalogue of any aspect of the library's various collections: a comprehensive catalogue of its Netherlandish drawings. This catalogue encompasses over 340 drawings, divided into two sections. The larger section, comprising Netherlandish works of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, numbers somewhat over two-thirds of the whole; the second section deals with Flemish works of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In the first section are drawings by such anonymous but important and gifted artists as the Master of the St. Barbara Legend and the Master of the Death of Absalom. Among works by known artists of the sixteenth century are examples by many of the leading draughtsmen of the period, such as Pieter Bruegel and his son Jan, Otto van Veen, Hendrick Goltzius, Jacques de Gheyn, Abraham Bloemaert, and Jacques and Roelandt Savery. Chief among the seventeenth-century Flemings are Peter Paul Rubens, Jacob Jordaens, and Anthony van Dyck, each well represented by a series of drawings. Also represented are Frans Snijders, Abraham van Diepenbeeck, Jan Cossiers, and David Teniers. All drawings are fullyillustrated, and there is also extensive reproduction of comparative material. Book has minor shelf wear.
