520 |a ABSTRACT This article investigates the history of the book, The Savage Hits Back or the White Man Through Native Eyes (Yale University Press, 1937 ), which opened up a kaleidoscopic view of global representations of Europeans, thus inverting the colonial gaze on the "Other." The author, the German anthropologist and museum director Julius Lips, published his book in the heyday of race theory in Germany. Driven into exile by the Nazis, he read Indigenous representations of Westerners as a tool of empowerment against the hegemony of colonial power and merged a critique of colonialism and fascism. By analyzing the scholarly reception of The Savage Hits Back, the author revisits Lips's crucial assumptions. Honing in on Lips's ambiguous and strategic use of Indigenous North American objects against the background of his exile in the United States, this article illuminates the mutual imbrication of Lips's biography and his scholarly work in politically volatile times.
