{"product_id":"9788763501347","title":"Nordic Orientalism","description":"This book explores the appropriation of Oriental imagery within Danish and Norwegian 19th century nation-building. The project queries Edward Said's binary notion of Orientalism and posits a more complex model describing how European counties on the periphery -- Denmark and Norway -- imported oriental imagery from France to position themselves, not against their colonial Other, but in relation to central European nations. Examining Nordic Orientalism across a century in the context of modernisation, urbanisation and democratisation the study furthermore shows how the Romanticists' naive treatment of the Orient was challenged by increased contact with the 'real' Orient.","brand":"Elisabeth Oxfeldt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47547494957374,"sku":"9788763501347","price":1347.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9788763501347.jpg?v=1707778835","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9788763501347","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
