Traditionally, Germany has been considered a minor player in
Pacific history: its presence there was more limited than that of
other European nations, and whereas its European rivals established
themselves as imperial forces beginning in the early modern era,
Germany did not seriously pursue colonialism until the nineteenth
century. Yet thanks to recent advances in the field emphasizing
transoceanic networks and cultural encounters, it is now possible
to develop a more nuanced understanding of the history of Germans
in the Pacific. The studies gathered here offer fascinating
research into German missionary, commercial, scientific, and
imperial activity against the backdrop of the Pacific's overlapping
cultural circuits and complex oceanic transits.
