can someone PLEASE help with this essay question:
"the orientalist representation of Transylvania as a realm of danger, disease, criminal pathology and sexual excess reflects the anglocentric and xenophobic (fear of foreign races) anxieties of the dominant middle class reader in the 19th century."
even if u have no idea how to interpret this question, can you please leave me any hints concerning orientalism and examples of QUOTES in Dracula that support these ideas.
ANY help u can give will be much appreciated, otherwise i am dooooomed! :bawling:
its due on friday so i need answers at least by thursday in order to prepare...
thank you to everyone in advance!!
