Descrizione The Far East and the English Imagination, 1600-1730

In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, China, Japan and the Spice Islands dazzled the English imagination. Robert Markley explores the significance of attitudes to the wealth and power of East Asia in rethinking conceptions of national and personal identity in seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century English literature. Questioning conventional Eurocentric histories, Markley examines the ways in which Milton, Dryden, Defoe and Swift deal with the complexities of a world in which England was marginalized and which, until 1800, was dominated - economically at least - by the empires of the Far East.
