| Abstract | "How can we tell colonial histories in ways that invite intercultural conversation within humanistic fields that are themselves products of colonial domination? Focusing on the first two centuries of North American colonization, Matt Cohen explores this question by looking critically at five concepts frequently used to imagine solutions to the challenges of cross-cultural communication: understanding, cosmopolitanism, piety, reciprocity, and patience"-- Provided by publisher. |
