Beschrijving

Bol Partner German scholar Makenthun analyzes English and Spanish narratives of the discovery and colonization of America from the Caribbean and Mexico north to Virginia and New England. She shows how Europeans wrote themselves into possession by creating an ideology of native savagery and rightful territorial ownership, and by silencing indigenous voices even as they pretended to record native leaders. Her final chapter draws on gender theory to explore the link between the Puritan's expulsion of Anne Hutchinson and the genocide of the Pequots, who they thought had far too feminine a connection with the land. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
