{"product_id":"reassessing-orientalism-michael-kemper-9781138795143","title":"Reassessing Orientalism: Interlocking Orientologies During the Cold War","description":"\u003cp\u003eOrientalism as a concept was first applied to Western colonial views of the East. Subsequently, different types of orientalism were discovered but the premise was that these took their lead from Western-style orientalism, applying it in different circumstances. This book, on the other hand, argues that the diffusion of interpretations and techniques in orientalism was not uni-directional, and that the different orientologies - Western, Soviet and oriental orientologies - were interlocked, in such a way that a change in any one of them affected the others; that the different orientologies did not develop in isolation from each other; and that, importantly, those being orientalised were active, not passive, players in shaping how the views of themselves were developed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Kemper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138795143\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138795143\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/25\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Michael Kemper","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065368097023,"sku":"9781138795143","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_73cc5f17-9322-487b-aea6-822d6b1f037a.jpg?v=1768674738","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reassessing-orientalism-michael-kemper-9781138795143","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
