Nineteenth-Century ‘Dutch’ Descriptions of Japan Before the Perry Expedition
East Central Europe Between the Colonial and the Postcolonial in the Twentieth Century
Multimodal Palimpsests
This article introduces a collection of essays about the construction of a cultural landscape in Eastern and Central Europe. This part of the world has been subjected to violent changes over the past hundred years that have also left their marks on the landscape, especially in the wake of the Second World War and after the fall of the Iron Curtain. It is suggested that the cultural dimension of these changes will be approached as a multimodal pal…

Wachten op de barbaren
This article explores metahistory in the poetry of Peter Blum. In many of Blum’s poems Western civilisation is confronted with theforces of barbarism, without civilisation necessarily being given preference over barbarism. By focussing on the metahistoricalaspects of Blum’s work, it is possible to illuminate the dialectical relationships between apparently disparate cultural domains inhis work—past and present, Europe and South Africa—which criti…
The Dutch Trading Companies as Knowledge Networks
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 i…

Knowledge and Colonialism
The establishment of a settlement at the Cape of Good Hope in the seventeenth century and an expansion of the sphere of colonial influence in the eighteenth century made South Africa the only part of sub-Saharan Africa where Europeans could travel with relative ease deep into the interior. As a result individuals with scientific interests in Africa came to the Cape. This book examines writings and drawings of scientifically educated travellers, p…
De eerste etnografische monografie
This paper examines the ethnographic discourse in the first ethnographic monograph which appeared in the Netherlands, De Kaffers aan de Zuidkust van Afrika, Natuur- en Geschiedkundig beschreven (1810) by Lodewyk Alberti. Within a European context this book is unique for being the only successful implementation of the ethnographic questionnaire of Joseph-Marie Degérando, the Considérations sur les diverses méthodes a suivre dans l’observation des …
Natural history and the representation of South Africa in the eighteenth century
In Imperial Eyes (1992), Mary Louise Pratt asserts that a “Linnaean watershed” may be identified in the eighteenth‐century discourse about South Africa. Before this watershed, a sympathetic depiction of contacts with the indigenes was to have been possible; afterwards, no longer. In this article I attempt to show, by reference to the work of Robert Jacob Gordon and Peter Kolb, that these assertions are difficult to defend, and that, in some respe…
