The Oriental in Restoration Drama

This work explores the representation of Orientalism in English drama of the Restoration period (1660-1700). The author analyzes the ways in which plays by writers such as Aphra Behn, John Dryden, and William Wycherley portrayed Eastern cultures and identities, and the impact of these representations on British perceptions of the East. This book sheds light on the complex relationships between gender, race, and power in early modern England.
