Chicago, The University of Chicago Press, 2001. 8vo. IX,+ (blank),+ 364 pp. Photoillustrated. Sewn as issued. From the library of Sven Lindqvist, with its stamp. ?Drawing on sources ranging from scientific papers and government correspondence to photographs, pamphlets, and police reports of "freak shows," Zimmerman demonstrates how German imperialism opened the door to antihumanism. As Germans interacted more frequently with peoples and objects from far-flung cultures, they were forced to reevaluate not just those peoples, but also the construction of German identity itself. Anthropologists successfully argued that their discipline addressed these issues more productively?and more accessibly?than humanistic studies?. Seller Inventory # 101850
