PREFACE

At the end of the academic year 1975/76

Professor Sture Lagercrantz will retire as Professor Regius

et Ordinarius of General and Comparative Ethnography in the

University of Uppsala, where he has taught for more than

thirty years. Most of his own work and that of his many

students has been concerned with African problems. Being a

former student of his, it is important for me personally to

express my own gratitude to Dr. Lagercrantz for many years of

interesting co-operation. It is also appropriate that the

Scandinavian Institute of African Studies at Uppsala pays

homage to Dr. Lagercrantz' work by publishing (albeit in a

much more modest form than his own magnificent series

studie Ethnographica Upsaliensia!) a small bibliography of his

work.

The Institute has been allowed to draw on Dr. Lagercrantz'

impressive knowledge of things African since its foundation

in 1962. More important, however, is the fact that he has

created a milieu of research and teaching on African problems

and African culture in the University of Uppsala, which

incidentally was one of the reasons for setting up this

Institute in Uppsala. We are grateful for his support and his

continuing interest~

The list has been compiled by Dr. Anna-Britta Wallenius,

Librarian of the Institute.
