This book highlights the role of cultural representations and
perceptions, such as when Iran is represented in the French media
as a rogue state obsessed with its nuclear programme, and when
France is portrayed in the Iranian media as a decadent and
imperialist country. Here, Laetitia Nanquette examines the
functions, processes, and mechanisms of stereotyping and imagining
the "other" that have pervaded the literary traditions of France
and Iran when writing about each other. She furthermore analyzes
Franco-Iranian relations by exploring the literary traditions of
this relationship, the ways in which these have affected individual
authors, and how they reflect socio-political realities. With
themes that feed into popular debates about the nature of
Orientalism and Occidentalism, and how the two interact, this book
will be vital for researchers of Middle Eastern literature and its
relationship with writings from the West, as well as those working
on the cultures of the Middle East.
