Descrizione Making England Western: Occidentalism, Race, and Imperial Culture
The central argument of Edward Said's Orientalism is that the relationship between Britain and its colonies was primarily oppositional, based on contrasts between conquest abroad and domestic order at home. This book reveals that romanticism provided a way to resist imperial logic about improvement and moral virtue.
