A study of the Romantic obsession with the "antique lands" of Ethiopia, Egypt, India, and Mexico, this title draws on both original texts and modern scholarship. It focuses on the unstable discourse of "curiosity" to offer a reformulation of the relations between literature, aesthetics and colonialism in the period.
