Europe Views the World examines the wide diversity of images that
Europeans produced to represent the wide variety of peoples and
places around the globe during and after the so-called 'Age of
Exploration'. Beginning with the medieval imagery of Europe's
imagined alien races, and with an emphasis on the artists of
Northern Europe, Larry Silver takes the reader on a tour across
continents, from the Americas to Africa and Asia. Encompassing
works such as prints, paintings, maps, tapestries and sculptural
objects, this book addresses the overall question of an emerging
European self-definition through the evidence of visual culture,
however biased, about the wider world in its component parts.
Unique to this book, each chapter concludes with an 'in response',
analysing representations of Europeans by indigenous peoples of
each continent to give a deeper and more multi-faceted account of
the impact of Europe's view of the world.
