    DIE ENTDECKUNG DER NATUR ist eine Erfahrungsgeschichte, deren Anfänge ins 14. Jahrhundert zurückreichen. Ein lebendiges Panorama ihrer Schauplätze und Protagonisten entwirft Jürgen Goldstein in sechzehn Kapiteln: von Petrarcas Mont-Ventoux-Erlebnis über Georg Forsters Tahiti-Reise und Georg Christoph Lichtenbergs Überfahrt nach Helgoland bis hin zu Reinhold Messners Besteigung des Mount Everest. Anhand von acht Bergbesteigungen und acht Horizontüberschreitungen durch Seefahrten zeichnet er einen Entwicklungsbogen nach, der von der zaghaft einsetzenden Lust am Schauen über die spektakulären Naturerkundungen bis zur heutigen Anschauungsmüdigkeit reicht. Aus den historischen Erfahrungsberichten spinnt Jürgen Goldstein eine dichte, fast literarische Erzählung der sich wandelnden Wahrnehmung der Natur, die diese Entdeckungserlebnisse zu unmittelbarem Leben erweckt. Indem er jene oft brillanten Schriftsteller wie Goethe und Darwin oder Claude Lévi-Strauss und Peter Handke selbst zu Wort kommen lässt, gelingt es ihm, die Erzählung als Wissensform zu rehabilitieren und die Leser an der Unmittelbarkeit ihrer Eindrücke teilhaben zu lassen. Was die Reisetagebücher, Briefe, Notizen und Erzählungen der Anschauungsnomaden verbindet, ist die Liebe zur Welt. (Quelle: www.buchhandel.de 26.02.2013)

    "In African Impressions in British Literature, Rebecca Mitsein considers the ways that African self-representation continued to drive European impressions of the continent across the early Enlightenment, fueling desires to find the sources of West Africa's gold and the city states along the Niger, to establish a relationship with the Christian Kingdom of Prester John, and to discover the source of the Nile. Through an analysis of a range of genres, including travel narratives, geography books, maps, verse, and fiction, Rebekah Mitsein shows how African strategies of self-representation and European strategies for representing Africa grew increasingly entangled as the ideas that Africans projected about themselves and their worlds migrated from contact zones to texts and back again. The geographical narratives that arose from this reiterative cycle, which unfolded over hundreds of years, were often highly imaginary and appropriated to expansionist ends but remained tethered to the African worlds and worldviews that shaped them"--

    "Exploration was a central and perhaps defining aspect of the West's encounters with other peoples and lands. Rather than reproduce celebratory narratives of individual heroism and national glory, this volume focuses on exploration's instrumental role in shaping a European sense of exceptionalism and its iconic importance in defining the terms of cultural engagement with other peoples. In chapters offering broad geographic range, the contributors address many of the key themes of recent research on exploration, including exploration's contribution to European imperial expansion, Western scientific knowledge, Enlightenment ideas and practices, and metropolitan print culture. They reassess indigenous peoples' responses upon first contacts with European explorers, their involvement as intermediaries in the operations of expeditions, and the complications that their prior knowledge posed for European claims of discovery. Underscoring that exploration must be seen as a process of mediation between representation and reality, this book provides a fresh and accessible introduction to the ongoing reinterpretation of exploration's role in the making of the modern world"--
