Synopsis
British and American scholars of English explore some of the assumptions embedded in the concept of orientalism, particularly the idea that a colonized culture was a blank slate upon which colonizers were unconstrained in imposing their imperialistic delusions. Among their topics are the Egyptian market in 19th-century British travel writing, homo-erotics and orientalism in William Bechford's Vathek, teaching the figure of the Turk in Shelley and De Quincey, and teaching orientalism in the wake of September 11.
