Handbook of Research on Contemporary Approaches to Orientalism in Media and Beyond, Hardback Book

Handbook of Research on Contemporary Approaches to Orientalism in Media and Beyond Hardback

Edited by Isil Tombul, Gulsah Sari

Hardback

Description

Orientalism is about much more than just information gathered about the East within its general postcolonial period.

In this period, orientalism is a Western discourse that dominated and shaped the view of the East.

There is ""otherization"" in the way the West has historically looked at the East and within the information presented about it.

These original stories of travelers in the past and previous telling about the East are facing a reconstruction through modern types of media.

Cinema, television, news, newspaper, magazine, internet, social media, photography, literature, and more are transforming the way the East is presented and viewed.

Under the headings of post-orientalism, neo-orientalism, or self-orientalism, these new orientalist forms of work in combination with both new and traditional media are redefining orientalism in the media and beyond.

The Handbook of Research on Contemporary Approaches to Orientalism in Media and Beyond shows how both new media and traditional media deal with orientalism today through the presentation of gender, race, religion, and culture that make up orientalist theory.

The chapters focus on how orientalism is presented in the media, cinema, TV, photography, and more.

This book is ideal for communications theorists, media analysts, practitioners, researchers, academicians, and students working in fields that include mass media, communications, film studies, ethnic studies, history, sociology, and cultural studies.
