  • Bernard Smith
    7 Constructing “Pacific” Peoples1 Bernard Smith It is generally agreed that Cook’s three voyages greatly enhanced the economic and political power of Europe in the Pacific. But before such power could be fully exercised, certain basic sciences and tech- nologies, the efficient maidservants of power, had themselves to be enhanced. Cook’s voyages advanced astronomy, navigation, and car- tography or, as he might have put it, geographical science. But there were other sciences of less direct concern to the Admiralty enhanced by his voyages, and these contributed also in their time to European domination in the Pacific—namely natural history, meteorology, and the emergent science of ethnography. Important advances were made in all these sciences continually throughout the three voyages, but there were differences in emphasis. The first voyage is the botanical voyage, par excellence, the second is the meteorological voyage, and the third is the ethnographic voyage. These changing emphases were owing largely, though not entirely, to contingent factors. On the Endeavour voyage, Banks, Solander, and Parkinson, with their interests centered on botany, made a powerful team. On the second voyage, Cook himself, his astronomers Wales and Bayly, the two Forsters, and William Hodges were all deeply inter- ested in the changing conditions of wind and weather, light, and atmo- sphere as they traversed vast sections of the southern oceans. By the third voyage Cook had come to realize that both scientific and popular A longer version of this chapter was published in Imagining the Pacific: In the Wake of the Cook Voyages, by Bernard Smith (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1992), 193–221.

    Tuhinga 24: 105–138 Copyright © Te Papa Museum of New Zealand (2013) Collecting, exhibiting and engaging with East Polynesia at the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa Sean Mallon* and Grace Hutton** * Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, PO Box 467, Wellington, New Zealand ([email protected]) ** Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, PO Box 467, Wellington, New Zealand ([email protected]) ABSTRACT: The Pacific Cultures collection of the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa (Te Papa) holds significant artefacts from the islands of East Polynesia, including the Austral Islands, Society Islands, Marquesas Islands, Tuamotu Archipelago, Pitcairn Island and Rapa Nui (Easter Island). Some artefacts are important because of their historical association with the voyages of eighteenth-century English explorer James Cook. Others are less well documented but of outstanding aesthetic quality and once belonged to the early twentieth-century English collector William Oldman. In this survey article, we describe the holdings of East Polynesian material culture in Te Papa and argue for their relevance in the national museum of New Zealand. We also examine other holdings in Te Papa that have associations with East Polynesia, and outline a short history of outreach and engagement with communities from this region. KEYWORDS: East Polynesia, material culture, Austral Islands, Society Islands, Marquesas Islands, Pitcairn Island, Rapa Nui (Easter Island), Te Papa, Tahiti, James Cook, William Oldman. Introduction Rapa Nui (Easter Island). We do not cover the Tuamotu Archipelago or Mangareva (Gambier) Islands, as there are Given New Zealand’s twentieth-century colonial ties to the no cultural artefacts from these locations at Te Papa.

  • The Cult of the Celebrity: Omai, the Exotic and Joshua Reynolds This
    The Cult of the Celebrity: Omai, the Exotic and Joshua Reynolds This lecture I will look at the events that led up to Joshua Reynolds’s portrait of Omai becoming an emblematic and iconic image representing Britain at the very height of its imperial powers. To explore this famous moment from history when two worlds collided I will explore the key players in Omai’s story, his origins in Tahiti, his background and motivation to come to England, followed by his time in England and English society and his interaction therein. I will then go on to look at Joshua Reynolds’s ideas regarding his self image, his influences and how this related to his image of Omai. This will be followed by a look at what this portrait of Omai by Joshua Reynolds can tell us about 18th century English society, its perception or preconception of the Other or non-white European and how prevalent pseudo-scientific ideas in this period affected the way Omai was perceived and finally envisioned in Reynolds’s painting. I will then look at what happened when Omai returned to the South Seas and impact of going back; can one ever go back what is the impact of returning? Finally I will speak about the legacy of the image we call Omai, which has become an enigma in its own right.

  • Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America
    “The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America Bryan Charles Sinche A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English. Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: Philip F. Gura Reader: William L. Andrews Reader: Joy S. Kasson Reader: Timothy Marr Reader: Eliza C. Richards © 2006 Bryan C. Sinche ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Bryan C. Sinche: “The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America (Under the direction of Philip F. Gura) In “The Test of Salt Water”: Literature of the Sea and Social Class in Antebellum America, I argue that fictional and non-fictional antebellum sea literature offers a valuable lens through which to critique authorial responses to race, social class, and economic mobility. The antebellum sailor populating the pages of the sea narrative was often celebrated as a representative American figure and a source of national pride despite the fact that, as a member of the antebellum working classes, he was a living testament to the limits of economic and social advancement in a nation where such limits were supposedly nonexistent. Authors used this disconnect, as well as the extra-national settings and generic conventions unique to the sea narrative, both to illuminate foundational American ideals and expose the failure of those ideals to improve materially the lives of sailors. In first section of The Test of Salt Water, I draw on writings by common sailors as well as well- known narratives authored by upper-class former seamen such as James Fenimore Cooper and Richard Henry Dana to map the rhetorical battles that helped to define the sailor within antebellum class hierarchies.
