FERREIRA (A. Rita). BIBLIOGRAFIA Etnológica de Moçambique (Das Origens a 1954). Lisboa. 1962. - FERREIRA (A. Rita) BIBLIOGRAFIA Etnológica de Moçambique (Das Origens a 1954) . Lisboa: Junta de Investigações do Ultramar, 1962. XIV, 254 pp.; 255 mm. Selected bibliography of the ethnology of Mozambique, from its origins to 1954, published in Lisbon in 1962 by the Overseas Research Board. It results from a manuscript acquired by the General Government of Mozambique and from complementary research subsidized by the Board's Center for Political and Social Studies, remodeled to comply with national and international documentation standards. Based on knowledge of almost all the existing literature on the subject, it excludes simply popularized writings and articles from the daily press. Works known only indirectly or written in languages that the author does not master are marked with an asterisk. The references are distributed by ethnic groups, according to the grouping proposed in the author's own work , *Agrupamento e Caracterização Étnica dos Indígenas de Moçambique* (Lisbon, 1958), and within each group in alphabetical order of the authors' surnames. There are general headings (”Mozambique, ” ”South and East Africa”) and headings for large groups (Tongas, Chopes, Chonas, Maraves in general). Works on peoples who do not inhabit exactly the Mozambican territory but whose documentation is indispensable to the study of cultural diffusion are also included, such as the Karangas, Corecores, Zezuros, Cheuas, and Nhanjas, and on neighboring countries (Union of South Africa, Rhodesia, Tanganyika, and Nyasaland). The bibliography of the Zulus is given in particular detail, due to the profound cultural influence of the invaders from Natal on the populations of southern Mozambique. Many references are noted, some with brief value judgments. The volume concludes with an index of authors and an index of cited journals. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
