Description:This Volume, number 11 in the Borneo Research Council's Monograph Series, brings together, for the first time, Monica Freeman's 1949-1951 diaries, ethnographic drawings, sketches, paintings, letters and photographs. In 1949 Monica Freeman went to Sarawak to join her husband Derek who was doing fieldwork among the Iban. During her time in Sarawak Monica kept a series of diaries and sent letters home to her mother in England. These diaries and letters are a personal record of the daily events in the lives of the Freemans, but are also a rich source of information about both the Iban and the fieldwork process. As one reads these letters and diary entries one begins to fall into the world of Sungai Sut and Rumah Nyala during the years of 1949-1951. Most noteworthy however, are Monica's drawings and paintings. In addition to their ethnographic precision these drawings deserve attention because of the way in which they so exactly capture a long lost moment in time. All are breathtakingly beautiful. Monica Freeman's work adds a significant dimension of depth to the work of Derek Freeman, filling in creative details about Iban society.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
