Matters of the Heart by Angela Wanhalla
Philip Soutar died at Ypres in 1917. Before becoming a soldier, Soutar's life revolved around his farm at Whakat?ne, where he lived with his M?ori wife Kathleen Pine in an 'as-you-please marriage, uncelebrated by a clergyman'. Matters of the Heart introduces us to couples like Philip and Kathleen to unravel the long history of interracial relationships in New Zealand.
Angela Wanhalla is a K?i Tahu historian and senior lecturer in the history department at the University of Otago. She specialises in the histories of cultural encounter in New Zealand’s colonial past, focusing on gender, race and colonialism in the nineteenth century, the indigenous history of the North American West, and the history of intimacy, particularly interracial relationships and hybridity. She is the author of In/visible Sight: The Mixed-Descent Families of Southern New Zealand (Wellington: Bridget Williams Books, 2009) and co-editor with Erika Wolf of Early New Zealand Photography: Images and Texts (Dunedin: University of Otago Press, 2012).
