Description

Understanding culture in terms of worldview and societal structures, this volume identifies ways in which Munsee society changed in an effort to adjust to the new intercultural relations and looks at the ways they maintained aspects of their own culture and resisted any imposition of Dutch societal structures and sovereignty over them. It may be said that the question of how the technology, languages, institutions, and even pastimes of Western Europe came to dominate global civilization - even came to create that civilization - is the greatest historical question of modern times. Yet scholars have paid relatively little attention to this veritable monumental phenomenon. This new series is designed to offer a forum for debate and bring new research to light.
