The Globe Encircled and the World Revealed de Ursula Lamb

The Globe Encircled and the World Revealed: An Expanding World: The European Impact on World History, 1450 to 1800

Ursula Lamb

This volume reflects the advances in research and methodology that have been made since 1960, as well as the increasing number of topics covered by the historiography of the European expansion. The studies selected demonstrate the range of this material, focusing in particular on the beginnings of trans-oceanic expansion by the Iberian powers. The volume has the further purpose of showing how the early encounters set precedents for subsequent patterns of interaction.
