Rezensionen
"Scholars of Brazilian studies will find King's analysis to be perceptive and revelatory ... the way King moves the discussion of orientalist discourse outside of Brazil and engages in a much broader debate regarding orientalism in its globalized manifestations. ... this well-researched book points critics in numerous directions for future research on orientalist discourse in Brazil." (Rex P. Nielson, Bulletin of Spanish Studies, Vol. 94 (9), 2017)
