Meer over het boek

Focusing on early modern travel literature, this book explores how concepts of national identity, imperialism, and orientalism were articulated for English audiences. Dr. Suranyi employs insights from history, anthropology, and literary studies to analyze cultural stereotypes used by English travelers in their portrayals of Europe, Ireland, and the Ottoman Empire. Key themes include civility versus barbarism, with cultural traits like food, cleanliness, and gender roles serving as evaluative criteria. This work enhances understanding of travel literature's role in the emergence of nationalism and cultural intersections.
