The two volumes deal with the representation of the Orient as an imaginary space and privileged topos in European literature and art from the 18th to 20th centuries. Rather than analyzing the different aspects of the theme from a sociological or historical point of view the essays focus on an "oriental effect" achieved through rhetorical strategies which can make themes, images, and narratives appear to be exotic.

Abstract
The two volumes deal with the representation of the Orient as an imaginary space and privileged topos in European literature and art from the 18th to 20th centuries. Rather than analyzing the different aspects of the theme from a sociological or historical point of view the essays focus on an "oriental effect" achieved through rhetorical strategies which can make themes, images, and narratives appear to be exotic.
