Abstract

Tuai of Ngare Raumati was probably the most written-about Māori in the first quarter of the 19th century. He was a man who lived in unstable times, who moved flexibly within European and Māori society, and who engaged with almost everyone he met, according to a French observer, with “the tact and shrewdness which enabled [him] to realise with whom he had to deal and by what means he could commend himself to all” (Dumont D’Urville in Sharp 1971: 38). His name—or a version of it—appears in most indexes of books about the pre-1830s Bay of Islands. But almost all modern references to him are in passing. Our article seeks to bring into focus this shadowy figure who played a significant role in New Zealand history, and in particular the relationships between Māori and the first Pākehā settlers in the north of New Zealand.
Ngare Raumati的Tuai: 19世纪早期的欧洲教学
Ngare Raumati的Tuai可能是19世纪前25年被写得最多的Māori。他是一个生活在不稳定时期的人,他在欧洲和Māori社会中灵活地移动,并且与他遇到的几乎每个人都交往,根据一位法国观察家的说法,“机智和精明使[他]意识到他必须与谁打交道,以及他可以通过什么方式向所有人推荐自己”(Dumont D 'Urville in Sharp 1971: 38)。他的名字或名字的一个版本出现在大多数关于19世纪30年代之前的群岛湾的书籍索引中。但几乎所有现代对他的提及都是敷衍了事。我们的文章试图将这个在新西兰历史上扮演重要角色的模糊人物,特别是Māori与新西兰北部第一批Pākehā定居者之间的关系,聚焦在一起。
