Orientalist Poetics - The Islamic Middle East in Nineteenth-Century English and French Poetry

Riassunto

Throughout the 19th century, British and foreign poets wrote widely and often on oriental topics. Poets found in orientalism an imaginative landscape that they deployed as a venue for experimentation with alternatives to poetic conventions. This text explores this literary history.
