In many aspects, James Cook s voyages of discovery in the South
Pacific are part of the revolution of knowledge of the Age of
Enlightenment. However, they not only laid the geographical
foundation for the modern transformation of the old world view, but
also formed the prelude for the momentous encounter and interaction
of cultures. Like no other traveler before him, Georg Forster
provides extraordinary insight into Cook s second journey around
the world through his literary travelogue Reise um die Welt Voyage
around the World] (1777?1780). In his travelogue Forster addresses
fundamental problems of cultural encounter, which are discussed in
this study in an exemplary manner."
