Das Staatsschiff Europa: Eine kleine Bildgeschichte


Europe ist often shown with the bull (taurus). But there is also a long tradition of imaging Europe as a ship, and to build on the old ship of state metaphor. In this essay different approaches to the sort of state Europe is are shown in the different ways the ship of state metaphor is used in images.
