Produktinformationen "Philip Quaque"

Rev. Philip Quaque's success did not lie in the establishment of several schools or in a thriving Christian ministry. Neither was Quaque's life about glorious victories won nor boasting of remarkable achievements. Rather, Quaque's story was about fifty years of perseverance, laying the essential foundation for educational institutions in the country. Philip Quaque's impact must therefore be measured differently, by the successes of his students. They became local and national leaders who brought about social, political, and economic change in the country. These were the beneficiaries of the educational system founded during Quaque's fifty years of service and dedication to the Gold Coast, known today as the Republic of Ghana.

Rulers and Warrioresses
The Kingdom of Dahomey, a city-state in the early 1600s, became a powerful nation in West Africa two hundred years later. Its kings were known for their expansion plans and application of dualism, where all male roles had female counterparts. This gave rise to the strong influence of women as administrators, as well as elephant huntresses, palace guards, and finally, the famed warrioresses. Dahomey's kings relied on the fierce and fearless warrioresses, known as the agoji, to defend the nation until the end of the nineteenth century. King Béhanzin and his elite agoji forces resisted French encroachment in the region until they were ultimately overpowered by the opponent's superior weapons. Dahomey became a French colony, but the contribution of the women defenders remains etched in national history.

The Baobab Tree
Throughout Africa, communities respect the baobab tree as central to life. As a result, its giant trunk, unusual shape, and long life have given rise to folklore, such as an ability to "swallow up" maidens. Ghana's well-known proverb, Knowledge is like the trunk of a baobab tree; no one's arms are long enough to wrap around it, refers to the limitless boundaries of wisdom. Wisdom that, in this proverb, is likened to the African baobab's usefulness. The baobab serves people from birth to death, providing food, water, clothing, rope, shelter, feed for animals, and a tomb for burial. Read about the rich contribution of this majestic giant of the African bush to the life of the communities to which they belong.
