Description:
A connected world as imagined by early modern European artists, mapmakers, and writers, where Asia and the Americas were on a continuum

America and Asia mingled in the geographical and cultural imagination of Europe for well over a century after 1492. Through an array of texts, maps, objects, and images produced between 1492 and 1700, this compelling and revelatory study immerses the reader in a vision of a world where Mexico really was India, North America was an extension of China, and South America was marked by a variety of biblical and Asian sites. It asks, further: What does it mean that the Amerasian worldview predominated at a time when Europe itself was coming into cultural self-definition? Each of the chapters focuses on a particular artifact, map, image, or book that illuminates aspects of Amerasia from specific European cultural milieus. Amerasia shows how it was possible to inhabit a world where America and Asia were connected either imaginatively when viewed from afar, or in reality when traveling through the newly encountered lands. Readers will learn why early modern maps regularly label Mexico as India, why the “Amazonas” region was named after a race of Asian female warriors, and why artifacts and manuscripts that we now identify as Indian and Chinese are entangled in European collections with what we now label Americana.

Elizabeth Horodowich and Alexander Nagel pose a dynamic model of the world and of Europe’s place in it that was eclipsed by the rise of Eurocentric colonialist narratives in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. To rediscover this history is an essential part of comin

Worth every penny

Works great! I have a van and it took all the noise out of the rear doors. I am almost in shock at how quiet it is now.

Great for what it does but not a miracle
Style: 30 sqft
Sticks well. Definitely thicker and nicer than the Kilmat version. If I were buying again I would just buy more of this, the value is better even though you get less total coverage per pack. Can be cut to size easily, we used a box cutter which got a little gummed but but not too bad. we were able to get it in and around everywhere we needed to put it and it held up well as we were mashing it into weird spots. It doesnt smell hardly at all while being applied and once its on there is no smell whatsoever The product is great for what it is. 4 stars only because I think it gets oversold for how much this alone can do. We did notice a slight reduction in noise but nowhere near the multiple decibels we see claimed everywhere. If your vehicle is mostly quiet but just has that little bit getting through this will probably do wonders, If you have a vehicle where there's significant engine noise in the cabin you'll need more than just this to bring that down.

Great product!

I can say this product makes a huge difference with road noise and is cleaner and easy to work with when applying compared to other mats that cost about the same price.

Very heavy and thick
Style: 30 sqft
I purchased mini brands of sound ending and this is by far the heaviest sound deadening I've ever ordered. I'm not installed yet but I have a good feeling that is going to work exceptionally in blocking sound. If weight is a concern for you I would recommend a lighter product however if sound quality and a quiet ride is your priority this is the one for you.
