A Female Poetics of Empire

- From Eliot to Woolf

Bag om A Female Poetics of Empire

This volume links fictional, non-fictional and pictorial representations of a colonial otherness with the late nineteenth-century artistic concerns about representational conventions and possibilities. The author explores these texts and images through the postcolonial framework of `exoticism¿. This book maps the epistemological concerns of exoticism and of difference ¿ self and other, home and away, familiarity and strangeness ¿ onto the representational modes of realism and romance, focusing exclusively on female novelists, travel writers and painters of the turn-of-the-century exotic.
