Foreign Bodies: Gender, Language, and Culture in French Orientalism
Madeleine Dobie
Building on the critical foundations established by Edward Said, this book examines the relationship between the Orientalist tradition in French art and literature and its colonial history. It focuses on a central dimension of this exchange: the figure of the "oriental woman," and the interplay of race and gender in domestic and colonial history.
