video description

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
In which John Green teaches you about the life and death of one of history's great explorers, Captain James Cook of the British Navy. He charted large swaths of the Pacific ocean, laid claim to Australia and New Zealand, and died a bizarre death in the Sandwich Islands, which are now called the Hawaiian Islands. Exactly how and why Captain Cook was killed in Hawaii is a long-running historical debate. John presents two interpretations of the event, and talks about what the differing interpretations say about history. It turns out how the story is told depends on who is doing the storytelling, and people from different backgrounds can interpret events in very different ways. Also, there is a celebration and a moustache involved in this episode, so you definitely don't want to miss it Robert: The British government of the 1750-1850 election era could have controlled the Pacific. If they had been interested. Controlling across the Pacific and possessing much of the coastal regions. But they were shortsighted. This was fortunate for the American manifest destiny.

ALL WRONG, captain cook came to Hawaii and during the time of -month of the gods-. The Hawaiians saw cooks GIANT ship, note they-ve seen nothing like this before so assumed that he was a God, they worshipped and served him for a while and on his way to his throne he tripped and got a cut and blood started to run. But They believed that Gods were immortal. So they immediately knew that he wasn-t. Once they found out they killed him. Your welcome for the truth

Obesekere is a Sri Lankan anthropologist and Marshall Sahlins is a Hawaiian anthropologist who actually speaks Hawaiian and knows far more than Obesekere on this topic.
