Two Worlds
Author: Anne Salmond
Publisher: University of Hawaii Press
ISBN: 9780824817657
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
Two Worlds is a penetrating rethinking of that view. Drawing on local tribal knowledge as well as European accounts, Anne Salmond shows those first meetings in a new light. Both Maori and European protagonists were active, all fully human, following their own practical, political and mythological agendas, 'quite unlike those of their modern-day descendants in many ways'. The result is a work of trail-blazing significance in which many popular misconceptions and bigotries to do with common perceptions of traditional Maori society are revealed. It also opens up new possibilities in the international study of European exploration and 'discovery'.

Book Description
For many years New Zealand was stereotyped as a sleepy hollow of the South Pacific, but more recently, it has had an influence in international affairs which belies its size. Noted more for its conservatism and stability, its green fields and sheep, than for its innovation and radicalism, this most geographically isolated of English-speaking countries took pride in its role as a provider of agricultural produce for Europe.
