Book Description:
|
In pursuing the sources for late-eighteenth and nineteenth-century "demonization" of racial and cultural difference, this book moves back and forth between the imagined world of literature and the "real" world of historical experience, between fictional romance and what has been called the "parallel fictions" of the human sciences of anthropology and biology.
