As the first book-length examination of the role of German print culture in mediating Europe's knowledge of the newly discovered people of Africa, South Asia, and the Americas, this work highlights a unique and early incident of visual accuracy and an unprecedented investment in the practice of ethnography.

Mapping Ethnography in Early Modern Germany New Worlds in Print Culture 1st Table of contents:

  • Chapter 1: Wonder and the Working Print: An Introduction

    • (This chapter likely sets the stage, discussing the intersection of the age of print and the age of exploration, and how visual representation played a role in understanding "new worlds.")
  • Chapter 2: Centering the Self: Mapping the Nuremberg Chronicle and the Limits of the World

    • (Focuses on the Nuremberg Chronicle, a famous incunable, and how it depicted the world and its inhabitants, possibly contrasting traditional views with emerging ethnographic details.)
  • Chapter 3: The Wild Man, the German Body, and the Emperor's New Clothes

    • (This chapter likely delves into the iconography of the "wild man" in German culture and how it related to perceptions of "otherness," perhaps connecting it to imperial imagery.)
  • Chapter 4: Hans Burgkmair's Peoples of Africa and India (1508) and the Foundations of Ethnography in Print

    • (A deep dive into the significant woodcuts by Hans Burgkmair, analyzing their unique visual accuracy and their contribution to early ethnographic representation.)
  • Chapter 5: Recuperating the Eyewitness: Jörg Breu's Images of Islamic and Hindu Culture in Ludovico de Varthema's Travels (Augsburg: 1515)

     

    • (Examines the illustrations by Jörg Breu for Varthema's travel accounts, focusing on how these images conveyed information about Islamic and Hindu cultures and the role of the eyewitness account.)
  • Chapter 6: The Amerindian's Moveable Feast: From Cannibal Roast to Fools' Fete

    • (Likely explores the visual representations of indigenous peoples from the Americas, tracing how initial portrayals of cannibalism evolved or were reinterpreted, perhaps in satirical or festive contexts.)
