Imagology Revisited brings together in one volume essays written over a forty-year
period on the perception and representation of foreign countries and peoples, the
"other". The book traces the emergence of national and ethnic stereotypes in the early
modern age and studies their evolution and multiple functions in a wide range of texts
from travelogues and diaries to novels, plays and poetry, produced between the 16th
and 20th centuries
