Notes
*An earlier version of this paper, written and presented to the memory of Eduardo Mondlane, first president of Frelimo, was given at a workshop in his honour at his alma mater, Oberlin College, on 3 October 1998. Not coincidentally, this event occurred very nearly 30 years from the day of Mondlane's assassination on 3 February 1969 in Dar es Salaam by agents of the Portuguese colonial power in Africa, a day particularly difficult to forget for those of us who knew Eduardo and who were also living in Dar at the time. This moving Oberlin workshop was attended by his widow, Janet Mondlane (see Manghezi, Citation2001) and various others members of his family, as well as by numerous friends, former comrades and admirers. It also bears noting that June of this year (2005) will mark the 85th anniversary of Mondlane's birth in Manjacase, Mozambique, in 1920 (see Anon., Citation1972 and Shore, Citation1983); hence the timing of the present publication, to mark Eduardo's birthday.
