| Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (pages 237-245) and index Columbus is the first blazing star in a constellation of explorers whose right to claim and conquer each new land mass they encountered was absolutely unquestioned by their countrymen. Columbus and the Ends of the Earth brings to life the system of religious beliefs that made the imperial taking of the New World not only possible but laudable. The language of prophecy and divine predestination fills the pronouncements of those who ventured across the Atlantic. With their conviction that they were exercising a God-given right to lands and goods held in escrow until the dawning of the Age of Discovery, Spanish, English, and other European adventurers laid claim to the land and peoples of the New World as their rightful due and manifest destiny. Djelal Kadir's argument has profound implications for current theoretical debates and reassessments of colonialism and decolonization. Has the ideology of empire disappeared, or has it merely been secularized? Kadir suggests that in this supposedly postcolonial era, richer nations and privileged multinational entities still manipulate the rhetoric of conquest to justify and serve their own worldly ends. For colonized peoples who live today at the "ends of the earth," the age of exploitation may not be essentially different from the age of exploration. Here is a timely review of the founding doctrines of empire, one that speaks less than reverentially of the brave explorers and righteous settlers of the New World Emergent occasions: of prophecy and history -- Anxious foundations -- New worlds: renovations, restorations, transmigrations -- Charting the conquest -- Conquering charts -- Patent conquests -- Salvaging the salvages -- Divine primitives -- Primitive divines -- Primitives divined -- Making ends meet: the dire unction of prophecy |

| spelling | Kadir, Djelal Verfasser aut Columbus and the ends of the earth Europe's prophetic rhetoric as conquering ideology Djelal Kadir Berkeley University of California Press ©1992 1 Online-Ressource (xiv, 256 pages) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 237-245) and index Columbus is the first blazing star in a constellation of explorers whose right to claim and conquer each new land mass they encountered was absolutely unquestioned by their countrymen. Columbus and the Ends of the Earth brings to life the system of religious beliefs that made the imperial taking of the New World not only possible but laudable. The language of prophecy and divine predestination fills the pronouncements of those who ventured across the Atlantic. With their conviction that they were exercising a God-given right to lands and goods held in escrow until the dawning of the Age of Discovery, Spanish, English, and other European adventurers laid claim to the land and peoples of the New World as their rightful due and manifest destiny. Djelal Kadir's argument has profound implications for current theoretical debates and reassessments of colonialism and decolonization. Has the ideology of empire disappeared, or has it merely been secularized? Kadir suggests that in this supposedly postcolonial era, richer nations and privileged multinational entities still manipulate the rhetoric of conquest to justify and serve their own worldly ends. For colonized peoples who live today at the "ends of the earth," the age of exploitation may not be essentially different from the age of exploration. Here is a timely review of the founding doctrines of empire, one that speaks less than reverentially of the brave explorers and righteous settlers of the New World Emergent occasions: of prophecy and history -- Anxious foundations -- New worlds: renovations, restorations, transmigrations -- Charting the conquest -- Conquering charts -- Patent conquests -- Salvaging the salvages -- Divine primitives -- Primitive divines -- Primitives divined -- Making ends meet: the dire unction of prophecy Colón, Cristóbal / 1451-1506 Columbus, Christopher fast Columbus, Christopher Colombo, Cristoforo 1451-1506 (DE-588)118564994 gnd rswk-swf HISTORY / Americas (North, Central, South, West Indies) bisacsh HISTORY. bisacsh Discoveries in geography fast Prophecy / Christianity fast Territorial expansion fast Ontdekkingsreizen gtt Kolonialisme gtt Ideeëngeschiedenis gtt Legitimiteit gtt Christentum Geschichte Prophecy Christianity Erforschung (DE-588)4152745-8 gnd rswk-swf Christentum (DE-588)4010074-1 gnd rswk-swf Expansion (DE-588)4247031-6 gnd rswk-swf Entdeckung (DE-588)4014841-5 gnd rswk-swf Prophetie (DE-588)4047487-2 gnd rswk-swf Entdeckungsreise (DE-588)4014842-7 gnd rswk-swf Amerika (DE-588)4001670-5 gnd rswk-swf Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 gnd rswk-swf Amerika (DE-588)4001670-5 g Entdeckung (DE-588)4014841-5 s Christentum (DE-588)4010074-1 s Prophetie (DE-588)4047487-2 s 1\p DE-604 Erforschung (DE-588)4152745-8 s 2\p DE-604 Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 g Expansion (DE-588)4247031-6 s 3\p DE-604 Colombo, Cristoforo 1451-1506 (DE-588)118564994 p Entdeckungsreise (DE-588)4014842-7 s 4\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 0-520-07442-4 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-0-520-07442-2 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=21235 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
