Description
The Orientalism debate, inspired by the work of Eward Said, has been a mojor source of cross-disciplinary controversy in recent years. John MacKenzie offers a comprehensive re-evaluation of Their vital literature of orientalism and brings to the subject highly original historical perspectives. This study provides the first major discussion of Orientalism by a historian of imperialism. Stting the analysis within the context of conflicting scholarly interpretations, John MacKenzie then carries the discussion into wholly new areas, testing the notion that the western arts received genuine inspiration from the East by examining the visual arts, architecture, design, music and theatre. John MacKenzie concludes the western approaches to the Orient have been much more ambiguous and genuinely interactive than Said allowed. The artistic construction of the East by the West has been achieve through a greater spirit of respect and in search of a truly syncretic culture. The Orient has indeed proved an inspiration to the European arts, even caught in the web of imeprial power relations. Table of Contents The "Orientalism" debate The Orient and culture and imperialism Orientalism in art Orientalism in architecture Orientalism in design Orientalism in music Orientalism in the theatre Conclusion Index.
