Captain James Cook鈥檚 鈥渄iscovery鈥� of Polynesia is Greg Dening鈥檚 focus for Performances (University of Chicago Press, 拢15.95/$19.95, ISBN 0 226 14298 1). Dening shows how different media such as film, poetry and theatre have treated the story, producing new characters and stereotypes. A good illustration of how history is created as much as reflected, and all in all a fascinating read鈥攔igorous yet full of personal insights.
