Synopsis
Western Representations of the Muslim Woman A study that traces the process through which the 'termagant' became an 'odalisque' in Western representations of Muslim women.

Review
"An insightful and provocative book. With an impressive knowledge of European literature from the medieval period to the mid-nineteenth century and in command of literary and feminist criticisms as well as Islamic history, Mohja Kahf unearths and revives conveniently forgotten images of Muslim women. This fascinating genealogyrelegated to oblivion, pushed in the footnotes, forced into invisibilityreveals the evolving images of the Muslim women in the West." Author: Farzaneh Milani, Associate Professor of Persian and Women's Studies, University of Virginia
