Abstract in English
In this research, I will deal with British
travel accounts to the Middle East around this period, attempting to
analyze their representation of the Middle Eastern landscape in the
light of Said's concept of "imaginative geography" represented in
his writings on Orientalism in Orientalism, Culture and
Imperialism and his article "Invention, Memory and Place".
