Gunpowder, Masculinity, and Warfare in German Texts (1400–1700)

Missionary Men in the Early Modern World
How did gender shape the expanding Jesuit enterprise in the early modern world? What did it take to become a missionary man? And how did missionary masculinity align itself with the European colonial project? This book highlights the central importance of male affective ties and masculine mimesis in the formation of the Jesuit missions, as well as the significance of patriarchal dynamics. Focussing on previously neglected German figures, Strasser…
Wissensgenerierung als emotionale Praktik
Building on Monique Scheer’s concept of emotions as “a practical engagement with the world”, our article analyses early modern ethnographical reporting. We focus on texts from the Jesuit collection Der Neue Welt-Bott (1726–1761), notably by Marianas missionary Joseph Bonani (1685–1752), to elucidate ethnographic activities as emotional practices and to show how reading ethnographies as ego-documents makes visible indigenous contributions to Europ…

Cultures of Communication
Copies With Souls
Although Ignatius created the template for Jesuit manhood, the task of modeling missionary masculinity for future generations fell to Francis Xavier as the first member to venture beyond Europe. This essay focuses on two late seventeenth-century followers of Xavier in the Marianas mission, Diego Luis de Sanvitores and Augustin Strobach, whom contemporaries characterized as virtual "copies" of Xavier with a twist: while the original Xavier longed …
Gender, Kinship and Power
Die Kartierung der Palaosinseln
The article examines the history of the first European map of the Carolines by a Bohemian Jesuit with a particular focus on knowledge transfer and competing conceptions of space during the era of European colonial expansion and overseas evangelization. Although Jesuit cartography contributed to the symbolic "colonization of space" (W. Mignolo) that accompanied political conquest overseas, it was driven by a distinct missionary "cosmovision" (Luke…

A case of empire envy? German Jesuits meet an Asian mystic in Spanish America
This essay deals with the hagiographic afterlife of Catarina de San Juan, the seventeenth-century slave from Asia who became a renowned mystic in colonial Mexico, in writings by German Jesuits, notably Joseph Stöcklein’s popular Welt-Bott. Why and how was Catarina de San Juan’s story told for a German-speaking audience in Central Europe? The specific German appropriations of her vita suggest that missionary writings could serve as a transmission …
