Биография Джорджа Форстера: от натуралиста до революционера, осуждавшего колониализм

Andrea Wulf’s “The Traveler” steps into the life and times of George Forster, the young naturalist and revolutionary who journeyed to the far reaches of the known world and whose radical ideas about humanity and freedom made waves in eighteenth-century Europe. A polyglot and gifted scientist, Forster regaled the world not only with tales from his travels but also radical ideas about human nature. He would write against empire, white supremacy, and slavery. He would become a revolutionary and be declared an outlaw.
