Où se trouve le crâne de Ratsitatane ?

La tête du prince malgache Ratsitatane fut pendant un temps exposé à la Plaine Verte. Pour l'exemple, il y avait été décapité en même temps que deux esclaves marrons, les dénommés Latulipe et Kotolovo. Dans 'Esquisses historiques', l'historien Pitôt raconte que "les têtes furent mises sur trois piquets et promenées dans Port-Louis. Le but était d'effrayer la population et de leur mon-trer ce qu'il adviendrait d'eux s'il leur prenait l'envie d'émuler ces marrons".

Mais qu'est-il advenu de la tête de Ratsitatane ? Cette interrogation n'a pas cessé de diviser les historiens. Certains d'entre eux estiment qu'il se trouverait au musée de Port-Louis, alors que d'autres pensent qu'il a été tout simplement perdu ou volé. L'historien Norbert Benoît prépare un ouvrage sur l'histoire de ce prince malgache, qui fait désormais partie de la légende mauricienne, et qui a inspiré une pièce de théâtre à Azize Asgarally, une thèse de doctorat à Issa Asgarally, une chanson engagée à Siven Chinien et le nom, même déformé, d'un groupe, Racinetatane, à la bande de Kaya dans les années '80/'90.

Mahébourg, souvenirs inépuisables

Mahébourg, village historique du Sud-Est, fait office de chef-lieu de la région. Toujours très animée et très colorée, Mahébourg demeure un lieu de mémoire. Malgré ses deux cents ans d'existence, ce village côtier conserve toute sa fraîcheur rustique. La première ville du pays fut fondée par le général Decaen et fut appelée ainsi en l'honneur de Mahé de Labourdonnais. Mahébourg perdit de son importance lorsque Port-Louis fut choisie pour être la capitale de l'Isle de France. L'arrivée des Anglais qui prirent possession de l'île en 1810 scella définitivement son sort.

Sam’s Philosophy of Determination

Sam Lingayah’s Reminiscences of an Immigrant is a very interesting work based on the life and struggles of the author who was practically illiterate. But by dint of hard work he educated himself to the highest level in UK thanks to the unique opportunity offered by a far-sighted British academician. As he depicted his life he painted the social and political scenes of his time putting the development of his country, Mauritius, in context. It is a book worth reading. In doing so I am gathering together the philosophical thoughts and ideas which he has recorded herein. Immigrants including everyone else from everywhere will find his life philosophy a mine of inspiration (MauritiusToday.com)


PRESSE ÉTRANGÈRE: Chers... livres, Une affaire d’euros

Pour être à la page en matière de presse étrangère, il faut payer le prix fort. C’est ce qui explique la disparition de certains titres dans les librairies et les salles d’attente.

«J’ai toujours un stock de revues au salon mais depuis que Paris Match a dépassé Rs 100, cela a été comme un seuil psychologique.» Nathalie Vinglassalon, coiffeuse à Curepipe, est restée près de 20 ans fidèle à sa revue mais elle hésite aujourd’hui à en acheter régulièrement. Car à Rs 143, ce best-seller traditionnel aux côtés des Courrier International (Rs 196) et autres le Point (Rs 178), souffre directement de la faiblesse de la roupie et de la hausse du coût de la vie.
