has abstract
  • Magema Magwaza Fuze (c. 1844–1922) was the author of Abantu Abamnyama Lapa Bavela Ngakona (The Black People and Whence They Came), the first book in the Zulu language published by a native speaker of the language. Born near Pietermaritzburg, Colony of Natal, he was brought up from about 12 years of age by Bishop John William Colenso and converted to Christianity. Following his education at the mission, he trained as a printer and compositor on Colenso's press before starting his own printing business. He wrote for a number of Zulu newspapers and in 1896 travelled to the island of Saint Helena to be the secretary to Dinuzulu kaCetshwayo, king of the Zulus, returning to Natal in 1898. Abantu Abamnyama was published in 1922 and in an English translation in 1979. It has been described as one of the principal sources of Zulu history. (en)
