Description

Explore the complex ways non-Western peoples are depicted in Western literature with Warrior Gentlemen: 'Gurkhas' in the Western Imagination. Published by Berghahn Books, this study addresses the growing interest in how ethnographic texts use literary devices to distance and exoticize subjects. Rather than applying a broad orientalist analysis to all depictions of non-Western others, this work argues for examining portrayals within their specific historical contexts. This book provides a nuanced look at how representations contribute to the subordination of discourse subjects. It is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, cultural studies, and the history of how different cultures are viewed through a Western lens. Ideal for readers interested in Asian and Asian Descent studies, this text offers a rigorous academic approach to understanding the historical nuances of literary representation.
