Examining and historicizing the concept of "otherness" in both
literature and criticism, Lisa Lowe explores representations of
non-European cultures in British and French writings from the
eighteenth through the twentieth century. Lowe traces the
intersections of culture, class, and sexuality in Lady Mary Wortley
Montagu's Turkish Embassy Letters and Montesquieu's Lettres
persanes and discusses tropes of orientalism, racialism, and
romanticism in Flaubert. She then turns to debates in
Anglo-American and Indian criticism on Forster's Passage to India
and on the utopian projection of China in the poststructuralist
theories of Julia Kristeva and Roland Barthes and in the journal
Tel Quel.
