So Roderick Cavaliero introduces the nineteenth-century European Romantic obsession with the Orient. Cavaliero brings on a rich cast of leading Romantic writers, artists, musicians and travellers, including Beckford, Byron, Shelley, Walter Scott, Pierre Loti, Thomas Moore, Rossini, Eugene Delacroix, Thackeray and Disraeli, who luxuriated in the exotic sights, sounds, literature and mythology of the Orient - the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. Cavaliero analyses the Romantic vision of the Orient from Ottoman Turkey, through the Middle East, including Egypt and Persia, to the Vale of Kashmir - fascination with the exotic Orient mixed with distaste for despotic rule. The Romantics saw the Ottoman Empire as the feebler successor to the huge and invincible military state that threatened Europe in previous centuries; and the Ottoman Sultan as an absolute ruler living in distant splendour, with power of life and death over his people, stifling any national and democratic aspiration that might undermine his empire.But dislike of Oriental despotism could be overlaid by the frisson of oriental luxury, especially as the Ottoman Sultans were also heirs to the Caliphate of the iconic Harun ar Rashid in the fabulous "Arabian Nights Entertainments" - tales hugely popular in Europe and symbolising timeless Eastern luxury. Dualism was fundamental to Romantic vision - the arch-romantic Byron wrote of 'virgins soft as the roses they twine' in his 'Turkish Tales' but fought for his romantic vision of Greek national independence. Cavaliero's Ottomania will delight all readers interested in tales of the Orient and the literature of the Romantic movement - a rich treasure-house of poets, novelists and travellers |

Tauris 2010 1 Online-Ressource (xx, 252 p.) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Library of Ottoman studies 24 Master and use copy. Digital master created according to Benchmark for Faithful Digital Reproductions of Monographs and Serials, Version 1. Digital Library Federation, December 2002 Includes bibliographical references and index Romanticism had its roots in fantasy and fed on myth. So Roderick Cavaliero introduces the nineteenth-century European Romantic obsession with the Orient. Cavaliero brings on a rich cast of leading Romantic writers, artists, musicians and travellers, including Beckford, Byron, Shelley, Walter Scott, Pierre Loti, Thomas Moore, Rossini, Eugene Delacroix, Thackeray and Disraeli, who luxuriated in the exotic sights, sounds, literature and mythology of the Orient - the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East. Cavaliero analyses the Romantic vision of the Orient from Ottoman Turkey, through the Middle East, including Egypt and Persia, to the Vale of Kashmir - fascination with the exotic Orient mixed with distaste for despotic rule. The Romantics saw the Ottoman Empire as the feebler successor to the huge and invincible military state that threatened Europe in previous centuries; and the Ottoman Sultan as an absolute ruler living in distant splendour, with power of life and death over his people, stifling any national and democratic aspiration that might undermine his empire.But dislike of Oriental despotism could be overlaid by the frisson of oriental luxury, especially as the Ottoman Sultans were also heirs to the Caliphate of the iconic Harun ar Rashid in the fabulous "Arabian Nights Entertainments" - tales hugely popular in Europe and symbolising timeless Eastern luxury. Dualism was fundamental to Romantic vision - the arch-romantic Byron wrote of 'virgins soft as the roses they twine' in his 'Turkish Tales' but fought for his romantic vision of Greek national independence. Cavaliero's Ottomania will delight all readers interested in tales of the Orient and the literature of the Romantic movement - a rich treasure-house of poets, novelists and travellers 1800 - 1899 fast Geschichte 1800-1900 Geschichte 1780-1850 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1790-1830 gnd rswk-swf LITERARY CRITICISM / European / General bisacsh Literature fast Literature, Modern fast Orientalism fast Romanticism fast Geschichte Literatur Literature, Modern 19th century History and criticism Romanticism Europe Orientalism in literature Orientalism Europe History 19th century Orientalismus Kunst (DE-588)4252308-4 gnd rswk-swf Romantik (DE-588)4050491-8 gnd rswk-swf Orientbild (DE-588)4122305-6 gnd rswk-swf Orientalisierende Literatur (DE-588)4203154-0 gnd rswk-swf Europa Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 gnd rswk-swf Europa (DE-588)4015701-5 g Romantik (DE-588)4050491-8 s Orientbild (DE-588)4122305-6 s Geschichte 1790-1830 z 1\p DE-604 Orientalisierende Literatur (DE-588)4203154-0 s 2\p DE-604 Orientalismus Kunst (DE-588)4252308-4 s Geschichte 1780-1850 z 3\p DE-604 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=334915 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
