Widows, Pariahs, and Bayadères
Author: Binita Mehta
Publisher: Bucknell University Press
ISBN: 9780838754559
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
This book analyzes how French dramatists reproduced certain images of India such as the burning widow, the lowly pariah or untouchable, and the exotic 'bayadere' or dancing girl in four plays and one ballet written from the eighteenth century through the twentieth centuries. Addressing questions of Orientalism, the book also argues that it was because the French lost their Indian colonies to the Briish in the eighteenth centuries that India became a part of the French literary imagination.
