Avant-garde orientalismthe eastern 'other' in Twentieth-century travel narrative and poetry /[electronic resource] :by David LeHardy Sweet. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - xiii, 318 p. :digital ;22 cm.

1. Introduction -- 2. The Poetics of Travel, Postcolonial Criticism, and the Theory of the Avant-Garde -- 3. A Literary Genealogy of Avant-garde Orientalism -- 4. The Maghreb and Tangier -- 5. Egypt and Palestine -- 6. India -- 7. Conclusion: The Far East.

This study explores the work of Western avant-garde writers who traveled to and wrote about Asia and North Africa. Though exoticist in outlook, many of these writers were also anti-colonialist and thus avoided some of the pitfalls of academic orientalism by assuming an aesthetics of diversity while employing strategies of provocation and reciprocity. As a survey of works on travel (including essays, novels, poems, and plays), the book challenges or modifies many postcolonial assumptions about Western writers on the Orient: from the French Surrealists to the American Beats and even transnational authors of the new millennium. Through a synthesis of avant-garde, postcolonial, and travel literature theories, Avant-garde Orientalism works in the best tradition of comparative literary study to identify and analyze a distinct category of world literature.
