The answer may be summed up in one word: deprovincialization. Historically, the encounter between scholars from different cultures was an education for both parties, exposing them to research opportunities and alternative ways of thinking. Deprovincialization was in part the result of mediation, as many {acute}emigr{acute}es informed people in their "hostland" about the culture of the native land, and vice versa. The detachment of the exiles, who sometimes viewed both homeland and hostland through foreign eyes, allowed them to notice what scholars in both countries had missed. Yet at the same time, the engagement between two styles of thought, one associated with the exiles and the other with their hosts, sometimes resulted in creative hybridization, for example, between German theory and Anglo-American empiricism. This timely appraisal is brimming with anecdotes and fascinating findings about the intellectual assets that exiles and immigrants bring to their new country, even in the shadow of personal loss. 410 0$aMenahem Stern Jerusalem lectures. 606 $aNoncitizens$xIntellectual life 606 $aExiles$xIntellectual life 606 $aMulticulturalism 606 $aKnowledge, Theory of$xHistory 606 $aLearning and scholarship$xHistory 615 0$aNoncitizens$xIntellectual life. 615 0$aExiles$xIntellectual life. 615 0$aMulticulturalism. 615 0$aKnowledge, Theory of$xHistory. 615 0$aLearning and scholarship$xHistory. 676 $a001.2 700 $aBurke$b Peter$f1937-$023996 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910158982703321 996 $aExiles and Expatriates in the History of Knowledge, 1500-2000$93478876 997 $aUNINA
