Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This open access book explores the ambiguity of East Central Europe during the twentieth century, examining local contexts through a comparative and transnational reworking of theoretical models in postcolonial studies. Since the early modern period, East Central Europe has arguably been an object of imperialism. However, at the same time East Central European states have been seen to be colonial actors, with individuals from the region often associating themselves with colonial discourses in extra-European contexts. Spanning a broad time period until after the Second World War and covering the governance of Communism and its legacies, the book examines how cultural and literary narratives from East Central Europe have created and revised historical knowledge, making use of collective memory to feed into identity models.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In 1724-1726, the Dutch clergyman François Valentyn published a 5,000-page account of the Dutch East India Company's empire. It was the first and, for a long time, the only survey of the Dutch establishments in Asia and South Africa. Shaping a Dutch East Indies analyses how Valentyn composed this work and how it largely determined the Dutch perspective on the colonies in Asia until the 1850s. It seeks to highlight both the great diversity of knowledge gathered in Valentyn's book and its geographical spread, from the Cape of Good Hope to Japan, with a focus on the Indonesian archipelago. Huigen's book is the first in-depth study of Valentyn's work, which is a foundational text in the history of Dutch colonialism.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - For more than a century, from about 1600 until the early eighteenth century, the Dutch dominated world trade. Via the Netherlands the far reaches of the world, both in the Atlantic and in the East, were connected. Dutch ships carried goods, but they also opened up opportunities for the exchange of knowledge. The commercial networks of the Dutch trading companies provided an infrastructure which was accessible to people with a scholarly interest in the exotic world. The present collection of essays brings together a number of studies about knowledge construction that depended on the Dutch trading networks. Contributors include: Paul Arblaster, Hans den Besten, Frans Blom, Britt Dams, Adrien Delmas, Alette Fleischer, Antje Flüchter, Michiel van Groesen, Henk de Groot, Julie Berger Hochstrasser, Grégoire Holtz, Siegfried Huigen, Elspeth Jajdelska, Maria-Theresia Leuker, Edwin van Meerkerk, Bruno Naarden, and Christina Skott.…

Leiden & Bozton, Brill, 2009. XII,273 pp. 46 ills (chiefly col.) on plts. Orig. hardcover (boards). 8vo. - Very smalkl stamp on first free endpaper. (The Atlantic world. Europe, Africa and the Americas, Vol. 18). [ISBN: 978-90-04-17743-7]. Research into the European perception of South Africa in the eighteenth century, based on travel accounts by VOC servants and scholars. - The establishment of a settlement at the Cape of Good Hope in the seventeenth century and the expansion of the colonial sphere of influence in the eighteenth century made South Africa the only part of Africa south of the Sahara where Europeans could travel relatively easily deep into the interior. As a result, people with scientific interests in Africa came to the Cape. This book examines the writings and drawings of scientifically trained travelers, particularly in the field of ethnography, against the background of commercial and administrative discussions at the Cape. It is argued that the scientific travelers benefited more from their relationship with the colonial order than vice versa. - Text in English. - The publisher's new price is 170.04.…
