De Atjehers. Uitg. op last der regeering

De Atjehers, commissioned by the government, offers a detailed examination of the Acehnese people. Authored by C. Snouck Hurgronje, a renowned scholar of Islam and the Dutch East Indies, this volume delves into the society, culture, and history of Aceh, a region in present-day Indonesia. Published in 1893, this work provides invaluable insights into the complexities of Dutch colonial rule and the protracted Aceh War. Hurgronje's intimate knowledge of Acehnese customs and Islamic practices makes this a significant historical and anthropological document. This volume serves as a crucial resource for understanding the dynamics of colonialism, religious identity, and resistance in Southeast Asia during the late 19th century.
