Drawing on travel narratives, harem literature, and other stories, Heffernan argues that women's bodies have been used to exacerbate the divide between religion and reason in the eighteenth century, the Islamic umma and the Western nation in the nineteenth, and Islamism and global capitalism in the contemporary period. Through the study of the writings of Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, Anna Bowman Dodd, Demetra Vaka Brown, Zeyneb Hanoum, and others, Heffernan's book demonstrates the ways in which these works complicate and interrupt these divides, opening up new opportunities for a more constructive dialogue between East and West."--$cAmazon.com. 606 $aVeils in literature 606 $aVeils$xSocial aspects 606 $aVeils$xHistory 606 $aMuslim women in literature 606 $aIslamic literature$xChristian interpretations 606 $aVoiles (Coiffures) dans la litte?rature 606 $aVoiles (Coiffures)$xAspect social 606 $aVoiles (Coiffures)$xHistoire 606 $aMusulmanes dans la litte?rature 606 $aVoyage$xArt d'e?crire$xHistoire et critique 606 $aVoyageuses$zMoyen-Orient$xHistoire 608 $aLibros electronicos. 615 0$aVeils in literature. 615 0$aVeils$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aVeils$xHistory. 615 0$aMuslim women in literature. 615 0$aIslamic literature$xChristian interpretations. 615 6$aVoiles (Coiffures) dans la litte?rature. 615 6$aVoiles (Coiffures)$xAspect social. 615 6$aVoiles (Coiffures)$xHistoire. 615 6$aMusulmanes dans la litte?rature. 615 6$aVoyage$xArt d'e?crire$xHistoire et critique. 615 6$aVoyageuses$xHistoire. 676 $a809.933559 700 $aHeffernan$b Teresa, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.$01740386 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910861073003321 996 $aVeiled Figures$94166038 997 $aUNINA
