Enlightenment Orientalism in the American Mind, 1770-1807

Inhalt

This study examines early American orientalism as a means of self-reflection in a time of disorienting change. It explores specifically the period’s popular oriental-observer tales as a way to conceptualize and critique the new ideas of identity, history, and nationality accompanying a growing protoindustrialization and consumer culture.
