Cultural approaches to exploration history became more prominent over a generation ago. While the field is too vast to document, here are two recent examples: The Routledge Companion to Travel Writing, which has an entire section (comprised of 13 chapters) entitled “Imagined Geographies.” Utilizing phrases like “culturally-mediated . . . associations” and “cultural baggage” when explaining the content of the section, editor Carl Thompson emphasizes the centrality of culture. The second example: the forthcoming 6-volume A Cultural History of Exploration, edited by former TI Editor Lauren Beck and Fabio López Lázaro, prominently highlights culture in the title and the content (e.g., each of the chronologically organized volumes will have thematic chapters that examine ways the exploration was represented in texts and images). Identity is a sub-theme within the cultural history of exploration. Rather than employing a single approach, scholars have analyzed identity construction in exploration history in a wide range of ways. Furthermore, the identities that scholars have focused on has varied too. Let me briefly mention some trends in the scholarship (it is beyond the scope of this introduction to provide a comprehensive overview). One trend has been to focus on the impact that the enterprise of exploration had on the identity of the nation that sponsored it. Scholars have shown that impressive feats in exploration enhanced prestige, inspiring leaders to fund exploration expeditions to bolster their own image as well as the image of their nation. Another scholarly approach has been to focus on the ways that explorers forged identities of places and peoples they explored, a method that has focused on the ways
探索历史的文化方法在一代人之前变得更加突出。虽然这个领域太大了,无法记录,但这里有两个最近的例子:《旅行写作的劳特利奇指南》,它有一整节(由13章组成),题为“想象的地理”。在解释这一节的内容时,使用了“文化中介的…联想”和“文化包袱”等短语,编辑卡尔·汤普森强调文化的中心地位。第二个例子:即将出版的6卷本《探索的文化史》,由前TI编辑Lauren Beck和Fabio López Lázaro编辑,在标题和内容中突出强调了文化(例如,按时间顺序组织的每一卷都将有主题章节,检查探索在文本和图像中的表现方式)。身份是探索文化史中的一个子主题。学者们对勘探史上的身份建构进行了广泛的分析,而不是采用单一的方法。此外,学者们关注的身份也各不相同。让我简要介绍一下学术界的一些趋势(提供全面概述超出了本引言的范围)。一种趋势是关注勘探事业对赞助国身份的影响。学者们已经表明,令人印象深刻的勘探壮举提高了声望,激励领导人资助勘探探险,以提升自己和国家的形象。另一种学术方法是关注探险家如何伪造他们探索的地方和民族的身份,这种方法关注的是

Anti-Picturesque Landscapes, Entangled Fauna, and Interracial Collaboration in Post-Emancipation Jamaica in the Work of Philip Henry Gosse and Richard Hill 菲利普·亨利·戈斯和理查德·希尔作品中的反风景如画的风景、纠缠的动物和解放后牙买加的种族间合作

The illustrations in Philip Henry Gosse’s travelogue A Naturalist’s Sojourn in Jamaica, published in 1851, refuse both the picturesque modes and the natural history conventions of the period. This article explores both of these surprising formal qualities in depth by comparing these illustrations to those from Gosse’s other books and to other contemporaneous representations. One explanation for these formal choices is Gosse’s unique collaboration with a Jamaican scientist and informant of mixed race, Richard Hill. Through a close reading of Gosse’s illustrations and a comparison of the texts written by Gosse and by Hill, this article proposes a methodology for exploring how diverse individuals negotiated their places within the global natural history networks of the nineteenth century.
菲利普·亨利·戈斯1851年出版的游记《博物学家在牙买加的生活》中的插图拒绝了这一时期的风景如画的模式和自然历史惯例。本文通过将这些插图与戈斯其他书中的插图以及其他同时代的插图进行比较,深入探讨了这两种令人惊讶的形式特征。对这些正式选择的一种解释是戈斯与牙买加科学家兼混血线人理查德·希尔的独特合作。通过仔细阅读戈斯的插图,并比较戈斯和希尔的著作,本文提出了一种方法,来探索不同的个人如何在19世纪的全球自然史网络中协商自己的位置。

history of the geography and cartography of the early modern world. Especially neglected in these areas he feels are the achievements of the Portuguese, Arabs, and Ottomans. In short, it was the newness of the European encounters with the New World that gave them dominance over the older ongoing experiences with the East, as succinctly stated by the author (pp. 29–30). Brotton is quite good at recounting the exploration of the Portuguese to the East around Africa and their interaction with locals along the way and in the East Indies as well their negotiations with the Spanish over disputed Asian authority and territories, culminating with the Treaty of Tordesillas in 1494. He also addresses effectively the resulting Portuguese contributions to geography and cartography. His commentary on the Ottoman and Arab inputs is regrettably somewhat more general. Throughout his discussions, he nonetheless emphasizes that trade and diplomacy were among the major motivators behind the pursuit of geography and cartography in Europe during this period. To support his assertions, Brotton aptly cites numerous period maps, and the text is well illustrated with black-and-white specimens of them. He also regularly employs globes such as that by Martin Behaim in 1490 and those pictured on the Spheres tapestries of c. 1520–1530 by Bernard van Orley as exemplars. It is refreshing to see the skilled use of these often neglected sources of geographic and cartographic evidence. While this book provides a good handy introduction to the subject at hand, not even thirty years ago were Brotton’s ideas particularly profound or new. As his bibliography confirms, studies on Portuguese, Arab, and Ottoman geography and cartography were not even rare then, and they have become far less so since. Although this claims to be an updated edition of the 1997 original, its text, bibliography, and notes do not reflect any significant additions or revisions. It remains a well-ordered and clearly and concisely written volume, and this newer edition should be of interest to a broad audience of devotees of the history of discovery, exploration, and cartography.
近代早期的地理学和地图学史。他认为,在这些领域,尤其被忽视的是葡萄牙人、阿拉伯人和奥斯曼人的成就。简言之,正如作者简明扼要地指出的那样(第29-30页),正是欧洲与新世界的新遭遇使他们在与东方的旧经历中占据了主导地位。布罗顿非常善于讲述葡萄牙人在非洲东部的探索,以及他们在这一过程中与当地人和东印度群岛的互动,以及他们与西班牙就有争议的亚洲权威和领土进行的谈判,最终于1494年达成了《托德西拉斯条约》。他还有效地阐述了葡萄牙对地理和制图的贡献。令人遗憾的是,他对奥斯曼帝国和阿拉伯投入的评论有些笼统。尽管如此,在整个讨论过程中,他强调贸易和外交是这一时期欧洲追求地理和制图的主要动力之一。为了支持他的断言,布罗顿恰当地引用了许多时期的地图,文本中用黑白样本进行了很好的说明。他还经常使用球体,例如马丁·贝海姆在1490年的球体和伯纳德·范·奥利在1520年至1530年的球形挂毯上的球体。看到这些经常被忽视的地理和制图证据来源的熟练使用,令人耳目一新。虽然这本书很方便地介绍了手头的主题,但即使在三十年前,布罗顿的思想也不是特别深刻或新颖。正如他的参考书目所证实的那样,对葡萄牙、阿拉伯和奥斯曼帝国地理和制图的研究在当时甚至并不罕见,而且从那以后就变得不那么罕见了。尽管这声称是1997年原版的更新版,但其文本、参考书目和注释并没有反映出任何重要的补充或修订。它仍然是一本秩序井然、字迹清晰简洁的书,这本新版应该会引起广大发现、探索和制图史爱好者的兴趣。

Euro-Settler Place Naming Practices for North America through a Gendered and Racialized Lens 从性别和种族化的视角看欧洲移民在北美的地名命名实践

Abstract The rich fabric of place names knitting together the Americas weaves into a complex intercultural network of naming practices that span thousands of years as well as the globe. Indigenous, European, and settler communities each bestowed names upon places near and far whose meanings describe the place, its resources, or one’s experiences there. Names define the people who occupy a place. They commemorate an event or person in ways that evidence the gendered and racialized nature of place naming in the Americas, especially after 1492, through a predominately masculine lens. This study considers how women and people of color are represented in place names and the impacts of masculinist approaches to place nomenclature while contrasting Indigenous approaches to toponymy and the European reception of Indigenous place names in the Americas, with a focus on North America.
丰富的地名结构将美洲编织成一个复杂的跨文化命名网络,这个网络跨越了数千年乃至全球。原住民、欧洲人和移民社区都给远近的地方起了名字,这些名字的含义描述了这个地方、它的资源或一个人在那里的经历。名字定义了占据一个地方的人。他们纪念一个事件或一个人的方式,证明了美洲地名的性别和种族化的本质,特别是在1492年之后,通过男性主导的镜头。本研究考虑了女性和有色人种如何在地名中表现出来,以及男性主义方法对地名的影响,同时对比了土著对地名的方法和欧洲人对美洲土著地名的接受,重点是北美。

taught at Columbia University, the University of Nebraska Omaha, and Boston College’s School of Theology and Ministry. The book concentrates on the French missionary work of the seventeenth century—sources for that period are richer than those for the later periods. Nonetheless, it also covers development well into the eighteenth century. The book is divided into two parts: the first focused on the missions’ founding era and early decades of its development and the second part highlights the issues of continual warfare and metropolitan neglect as these shaped the Jesuit enterprise. Part I focuses on the mission’s founding, from 1610s to 1660s, and shows that missionaries under the leadership of Paule Le Jeune, François-Joseph Le Mercier and others who acted closely with French political and mercantile elites, particularly in the period of Cardinal Richelieu’s administration. French authorities in France and Canada decided to utilize the Jesuit access to the Native nations to help negotiate trade and military alliances for New France. The author demonstrates how the Jesuits contributed to the transformation of the woodlands and indigenous villages into secure and economically productive trade centers characterized by military preparedness. Part II covers the late seventeenth and eighteenth century, during which different political, social, and cultural realities shaped the French colonial world, a period that spans from the beginning of Jean-Baptiste Colbert’s ministry (1661) to the end of the Seven Years’ War in 1763 when dreams of a French empire dissipated. During these years, the shift in metropolitan politics to Versailles and the decrease in interest in the colony resulted in diminished support (supplies and guidance) for Jesuit, suffocating imperial aspirations. As a result, the Jesuits “moderated their ambitions for a French Catholic empire in America, due more to metropolitan neglect than Native American resistance or English advances” (p. xviii). Although the book also deals extensively with the role of the Jesuits in the territorialization of New France (their role in negotiating peace treaties and demarcations is particularly well documented), their role in exploration in this study is somehow left behind. Exploration and mapping by the Jesuits were equally important for the establishment of French power and the economic prosperity of the colony. Yet, the book provides an excellent contextualization of the policies pursued in Paris and Quebec, which determined the fate of the Jesuits not only in their missionary work, but also in their exploration. The book represents a valuable contribution to French colonial history and transatlantic cultural and intellectual exchange, as well as to a better understanding of French influence on the development of modern American society in general.
曾在哥伦比亚大学、内布拉斯加大学奥马哈分校和波士顿学院神学院任教。这本书集中讲述了17世纪法国的传教工作——这一时期的资料比后来的时期更丰富。尽管如此,它也涵盖了一直到18世纪的发展。这本书分为两个部分:第一部分关注传教团的成立时代及其早期几十年的发展,第二部分强调了持续的战争和大都市忽视的问题,因为这些问题塑造了耶稣会的事业。第一部分重点介绍了使团的成立,从1610年代到1660年代,并展示了在Paule Le Jeune、François Joseph Le Mercier等人的领导下,传教士与法国政治和商业精英密切合作,特别是在黎塞留枢机主教执政期间。法国和加拿大的法国当局决定利用耶稣会进入土著民族的机会,帮助谈判新法国的贸易和军事联盟。作者展示了耶稣会士如何将林地和土著村庄转变为以军事准备为特征的安全和经济生产的贸易中心。第二部分涵盖了17世纪末和18世纪,在这两个世纪里,不同的政治、社会和文化现实塑造了法国殖民世界,这一时期从让-巴蒂斯特·科尔伯特的牧师生涯开始(1661年)到1763年七年战争结束,法兰西帝国的梦想破灭。在这些年里,大都市政治向凡尔赛宫的转变以及对殖民地兴趣的减少导致了对耶稣会的支持(供应和指导)减少,扼杀了帝国的愿望。因此,耶稣会士“缓和了他们在美国建立法国天主教帝国的野心,更多的是由于大都市的忽视,而不是美洲原住民的抵抗或英国的进步”(第xvii页)。尽管这本书也广泛讨论了耶稣会士在新法国领土化中的作用(他们在谈判和平条约和划界方面的作用特别有文献记载),但他们在本研究中的探索作用在某种程度上被抛在了后面。耶稣会士的勘探和测绘对法国权力的建立和殖民地的经济繁荣同样重要。然而,这本书为巴黎和魁北克推行的政策提供了一个极好的背景,这些政策不仅决定了耶稣会士的传教工作,也决定了他们的探索命运。这本书对法国殖民历史、跨大西洋文化和知识交流以及更好地理解法国对现代美国社会发展的影响做出了宝贵贡献。

Reinhartz","doi":"10.1080/00822884.2021.1891380","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/00822884.2021.1891380","url":null,"abstract":"taught at Columbia University, the University of Nebraska Omaha, and Boston College’s School of Theology and Ministry. The book concentrates on the French missionary work of the seventeenth century—sources for that period are richer than those for the later periods. Nonetheless, it also covers development well into the eighteenth century. The book is divided into two parts: the first focused on the missions’ founding era and early decades of its development and the second part highlights the issues of continual warfare and metropolitan neglect as these shaped the Jesuit enterprise. Part I focuses on the mission’s founding, from 1610s to 1660s, and shows that missionaries under the leadership of Paule Le Jeune, François-Joseph Le Mercier and others who acted closely with French political and mercantile elites, particularly in the period of Cardinal Richelieu’s administration. French authorities in France and Canada decided to utilize the Jesuit access to the Native nations to help negotiate trade and military alliances for New France. The author demonstrates how the Jesuits contributed to the transformation of the woodlands and indigenous villages into secure and economically productive trade centers characterized by military preparedness. Part II covers the late seventeenth and eighteenth century, during which different political, social, and cultural realities shaped the French colonial world, a period that spans from the beginning of Jean-Baptiste Colbert’s ministry (1661) to the end of the Seven Years’ War in 1763 when dreams of a French empire dissipated. During these years, the shift in metropolitan politics to Versailles and the decrease in interest in the colony resulted in diminished support (supplies and guidance) for Jesuit, suffocating imperial aspirations. As a result, the Jesuits “moderated their ambitions for a French Catholic empire in America, due more to metropolitan neglect than Native American resistance or English advances” (p. xviii). Although the book also deals extensively with the role of the Jesuits in the territorialization of New France (their role in negotiating peace treaties and demarcations is particularly well documented), their role in exploration in this study is somehow left behind. Exploration and mapping by the Jesuits were equally important for the establishment of French power and the economic prosperity of the colony. Yet, the book provides an excellent contextualization of the policies pursued in Paris and Quebec, which determined the fate of the Jesuits not only in their missionary work, but also in their exploration. The book represents a valuable contribution to French colonial history and transatlantic cultural and intellectual exchange, as well as to a better understanding of French influence on the development of modern American society in general.","PeriodicalId":40672,"journal":{"name":"Terrae Incognitae-The Journal of the Society for the History of Discoveries","volume":"53 1","pages":"66 - 67"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00822884.2021.1891380","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49311907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
