French Orientalism: Culture, Politics, and the Imagined Other
ISBN: 9781443823180 / Twarda / 275 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In this sense, the Occident supposedly defines itself by gazing at the East as its inverse image and purportedly asserts a geopolitical dominance materially confirmed through imperialism and...
