Subject: Re: Represenations of the Other, Exoticism


Sushma,

For a very general reading, I would suggest Ella Shohat and Robert Stam's
Unthinking Eurocentrism.  This book focuses on films and reveals how
cinematic traditions in the West have rendered non-Western cultures and
traditions as exotic, alien and Other.
