Rethinking Orientalism : Women, Travel and the Ottoman Harem
ISBN: 9781860647307 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The oppressed yet highly sexualized woman of the Muslim harem is arguably the pivotal figure of Western orientalism. Yet, as Reina Lewis demonstrates, while orientalist thinking had recently been challenged, Western understandings of Middle Eastern culture remain limited. This book presents alternative dialogues between Ottoman and Western women. Lewis examines, from the position of cultural theory, the published autobiographical accounts about segregated life of self-identified Oriental women Demetra Vaka Brown, Halide Edib, Zeyneb Hanum, Melek Hanum and Grace Ellison. Bringing her subjects...

Gender, Modernity and Liberty: Middle Eastern and Western Women's Writings, a Critical Sourcebook
ISBN: 9781860649578 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book presents a dialogue between Western and Middle Eastern women that is often presumed never to have happened. Not only were women from the Middle East imagined to be shut up in a harem all day without access to education, ideas or the outside world, but the extent to which Western women travelers were able to engage with women in the regions they visited has often been overlooked. This pioneering collection provides substantial extracts from Ottoman, Egyptian and British and American writers - each with a biographical and literary introduction - that trace the development of an...

Muslim Fashion: Contemporary Style Cultures
ISBN: 9780822359340 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the shops of London's Oxford Street, girls wear patterned scarves over their hair as they cluster around makeup counters. Alongside them, hip twenty-somethings style their head-wraps in high black topknots to match their black boot-cut trousers. Participating in the world of popular mainstream fashion--often thought to be the domain of the West--these young Muslim women are part of an emergent cross-faith transnational youth subculture of modest fashion. In treating hijab and other forms of modest clothing as fashion, Reina Lewis counters the overuse of images of veiled women as...

Rethinking Orientalism: Women, Travel, and the Ottoman Harem
ISBN: 9780813535432 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the nineteenth century, the figure of the passive, oppressed, yet highly sexualized female of the Muslim harem became the pivotal figure of Western orientalism. Despite recent challenges to orientalist thinking, however, an enduring mystique continues to surround Western perceptions of Eastern women. In Rethinking Orientalism, Reina Lewis makes a major contribution to correcting the prevailing stereotype of the subjugated, silenced woman of the harem. Bringing together published autobiographical accounts of self-identified "Oriental" women at the turn of the twentieth...

Gendering Orientalism: Race, Femininity and Representation
ISBN: 9780415124904 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study challenges masculinist assumptions relating to the stability and homogeneity of the Orientalist gaze. It argues that women did not have a straightforward access to an implictly male position of Western superiority. Their relationship to the shifting terms of race, nation and gender produced positions from which women writers and artists could articulate alternative representations of racial difference. The extent of women's involvement in the popular field of visual Orientalism is revealed and the presence of Orientalist themes in the work of Henriette Browne and George Eliot is...

Fashion in Altermodern China
ISBN: 9781350200074 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Fashion in Altermodern China examines key features of women’s fashion within the cultural and political context of contemporary China. While global brands and styles heavily influence Chinese consumer trends, the Chinese fashion ‘system’ is formed of its own internal logics and emergent trends, too. Adopting the theoretical term ‘altermodern’, Feng Jie encourages us to view China in terms of its rapid modernization which presents its own rhythms and meanings, and argues persuasively that Chinese fashion can’t be wholly understood in terms of a Western discourse of modernity,...
