How do images circulating in Pacific cultures and exchanged between them and their many visitors transform meanings for all involved? This fascinating collection explores how through mimesis, wayfarers and locales alike borrow images from one another to expand their cultural repertoire of meanings or borrow images from their own past to validate their identities.

Industry Reviews

"This edited collection offers an important contribution to mimesis and its role in transcultural encounters, both in the past and present, in the Pacific region." · Alison Dundon, University of Adelaide, Australia
