What reading level is The Great Plateau of Northern Rhodesia, Being Some Impressions of the Tanganyika Plateau book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The older men, so soon as they feel at home with a mission doctor, will pester him for aphrodisiacs. One has but to listen to the filthy ingenuity of obscene abuse poured forth by two quarrelhng women to reaUse that the fair sex do not lag behind in such matters. A few tribes are, by comparison, moral after marriage, but to speak of morahty in the European sense with regard to such tribes as the Awemba is mere foohshness.
Nor may the fashionable defence that the native is more 'non-moral than i...mmoral ' be here set up. The Awemba have a very definite code of sex-morahty, as enforced by superstitious belief and definite sanctions, which included mutilation. All know that immorahty is wrong, and that it runs counter to the laws of superstitious observance.
Did space permit, it would be interesting to trace out the manner in which, according to the theory of native custom, sexual continence and faithfulness are essential in the daily conduct of life, and how immoral acts will — theoretically at least — vitiate and render unsuccessful the most ordinary pursuits, such as hunting and fishing.
