Early Meteorological Observations in Greenland: The Contributions of David Cranz, Christian Gottlieb Kratzenstein and Christopher Brasen- Gaston Demarée and Astrid Elisabeth Ogilvie -- 8. Greenland in Hungary: Inuit Culture and the Emergence of the Science of Anthropology in Late Eighteenth – Early Nineteenth Century Hungary- Ildikó SzKristof -- 9. The Soul of the Arctic. David Cranz’s account of the religion or superstitions of the Greenlanders and its impact on 19th Century descriptions of religion in Greenland- Åmund Norum Resløkken -- Part IV: Cranz and the Medium of Missions -- 10. The “United Brethren” and Johann Gerhard König—Cranz’s Historie von Grönland as an avenue to the natural history of India- Thomas Ruhland -- 11.

This book brings together interdisciplinary scholars from history, theology, folklore, ethnology and meteorology to examine how David Cranz’s Historie von Grönland (1765) resonated in various disciplines, periods and countries. Collectively the contributors demonstrate the reach of the book beyond its initial purpose as a record of missionary work, and into secular and political fields beyond Greenland and Germany. The chapters also reveal how the book contributed to broader discussions and conceptualizations of Greenland as part of the Atlantic world. The interdisciplinary scope of the volume allows for a layered reading of Cranz’s book that demonstrates how different meanings could be drawn from the book in different contexts and how the book resonated throughout time and space. It also makes the broader argument that the construction of the Artic in the eighteenth century broadened our understanding of the Atlantic.
