Watch the free virtual book talk of 'Transpacific Engagements: Trade, Translation, and Visual Culture of Entangled Empires (1565-1898)'. Featuring the editors and a global panel of discussants! 📚
The talk explores global culture and economic exchange on the transpacific routes between Asia and the Americas between the 16th and 19th centuries - an era of competition for global trade networks - and how those interchanges have made a profound impact on contemporary art and culture, especially in the cosmopolitan cities of Manila and Los Angeles along the Pacific Rim.
