TY - CHAP A1 - Wagner, Walter T1 - The myth of the Orient in Flaubert's "Voyage en Égypte" and Bachmann's "Das Buch Franza" T2 - New perspectives on imagology / edited by Katharina Edtstadler, Sandra Folie and Gianna Zocco ; Studia Imagologica ; 30 N2 - This study compares and analyses hetero-stereotypes in Flaubert's travelogue "Voyage en Égypte" and Bachmann's prose fictions "Wüstenbuch" and "Das Buch Franza" in order to find out to what extent Flaubert resorts to stereotypical representations of the colonial Orient, and Bachmann perpetuates, transforms, or revises Flaubert's imagological discourse in the age of postcolonialism. Whereas Flaubert's sexist and racist narrative posits white superiority, Bachmann's protagonists subvert the male hegemonic stance of her French predecessor, insisting on white and male inferiority, causing just another stereotypization of race and gender.
