Sandra Young

The Early Modern Global South in Print (eBook, ePUB)

Textual Form and the Production of Human Difference as Knowledge

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Early modern geographers and compilers of travel narratives drew on a lexicon derived from cartography's seemingly unchanging coordinates to explain human diversity. Sandra Young's inquiry into the partisan knowledge practices of early modernity brings to light the emergence of the early modern global south. Young proposes new terms with which to understand the racialized imaginary inscribed in the scholarly texts that presented the peoples of the south as objects of an inquiring gaze from the north.
