Description

This comprehensive study examines how nineteenth-century German scholarship on the Orient transformed European intellectual life and cultural institutions between 1830 and 1930. German Orientalists led the field during this pivotal period despite Germany's late entry into colonial expansion, fundamentally reshaping academic discourse far beyond traditional Christian-classical frameworks. The book provides the first synthetic and contextualized analysis of German Orientalistik, exploring how Oriental studies contributed to European empire-building whilst simultaneously challenging established intellectual boundaries. Published by Cambridge University Press as part of the Publications of the German Historical Institute series, this carefully researched work offers essential insights into the relationship between scholarship, cultural authority, and imperial ambition during the nineteenth century.
