Description

Mysteries and Dreams: The French in Oceania is a cross-disciplinary collection of essays exploring the complex encounters between Indigenous Oceanians and French people across the Pacific. This anthropology book examines the mysteries, allures and differing worldviews that emerged from first contact onwards, analysing how both groups navigated their mutual aspirations, dreams and disillusions. With a strong emphasis on reciprocity, the essays investigate diverse forms of French association with Oceania and the responses these relationships generated. The collection offers original insights into the cultural exchanges, misunderstandings and shared experiences that shaped Franco-Oceanian interactions, providing readers with a nuanced understanding of how Indigenous and European perspectives collided and merged in this distinctive colonial and post-colonial context.
