First published in 1989, this collection of essays brings into
focus the history of a specific form of violence - that of
representation. The contributors identify representations of self
and other that empower a particular class, gender, nation, or race,
constructing a history of the west as the history of changing modes
of subjugation. The essays bring together a wide range of literary
and historical work to show how writing became an increasingly
important mode of domination during the modern period as ruling
ideas became a form of violence in their own right. This reissue
will be of particular value to literature students with an interest
in the concept of violence, and the boundaries and capacity of
discourse.
