Enlightenment Orientalism in the American Mind, 1770-1807 - Perspectives on Early America
Pangborn, Matthew H. (Briar Cliff University, USA)
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.
