The Aranda’s Pepa

An introduction to Carl Strehlow’s Masterpiece Die Aranda- und Loritja-Stämme in Zentral-Australien (1907-1920)

By: Anna Kenny

The German missionary Carl Strehlow (1871-1922) had a deep ethnographic interest in Aboriginal Australian cosmology and social life which he documented in his 7 volume work Die Aranda- und Loritja-Stämme in Zentral-Australien that remains unpublished in English. In 1913, Marcel Mauss called his collection of sacred songs and myths, an Australian Rig Veda. This immensely rich corpus, based on a lifetime on the central Australian frontier, is barely known in the English-speaking world and is the last great body of early Australian ethnography that has not yet been built into the world of Australian anthropology and its intellectual history. The German psychological and hermeneutic traditions of anthropology that developed outside of a British-Australian intellectual world were alternatives to 19th century British scientism. The intellectual roots of early German anthropology reached back to Johann Gottfried Herder (1744-1803), the founder of German historical particularism, who rejected the concept of race as well as the French dogma of the uniform development of civilisation. Instead he recognised unique sets of values transmitted through history and maintained that cultures had to be viewed in terms of their own development and purpose. Thus, humanity was made up of a great diversity of ways of life, language being one of its main manifestations. It is this tradition that led to a concept of cultures in the plural.

My Story

By: Kenny Sansom

Kenny Sansom considers himself a lucky man. But he also knows he's pushed that luck, and is fortunate to have survived. As anbsp;soccer playernbsp;he soared to great heights—but as an individual he also sank to life-threatening lows. The fans in the Highbury terraces may have sung "There's only one Kenny Sansom" but no-one ever really knew the whole truth about one of English football's best-loved icons. Few players have ever epitomized the spirit of First Division soccer more than Handsome Sansom. The nimble left-footed schoolboy from the streets of South London holds a special place in the history of the great English game, winning the hearts of Crystal Palace and Arsenal fans during a playing career which saw him captain successful teams at both clubs. Under the management of Terry Venables, Ron Greenwood, Terry Neill, and George Graham, the 1970s and 1980s saw the youthful Kenny revelling in top flight football, with millions of fans cheering his refreshing, direct, and athletic style. Strong, calm, reliable, and known for his ability to work in pinpoint crosses from the left, Kenny was a firm fixture in the cup-winning Arsenal and England defenses for most of the 1980s. He won a record-breaking 86 international caps at left-back, and featured in many of the most exciting and pivotal matches played by the Three Lions during that decade—including the infamous game versus Argentina in Mexico 1986. Among many insights from old team-mates and respected managers, for the first time Kenny reveals the real truth about Maradona's controversial Hand of God goal that broke English hearts and robbed the team of a place in the final. Throughout it all, up against some of the best strikers in the world, Kenny's positive attitude never came into question. He's never been booked, let alone sent off. But off the pitch, unknown to his loyal fans, he was suffering in silence. The addictive side of his personality threatened to destroy not only his career but his rock-solid family life too. The fans were kept in the dark by protective manager George Graham, but it was the two women in Kenny's life who truly saved him from the wolves at the door—his devoted mother and the wife he'd met during his early school days. On the brink of throwing it all away, Kenny has found the strength to fight back and defeat the demons of drink and gambling. Laying his soul bare for the first time, Kenny's story reveals the highs and lows of a man at the peak of professional achievement yet dangerously close to losing it all. The result is an entertaining must-read for allnbsp; soccer fans—but it also offers hope to anyone caught up in the nightmare of addiction.
