520 |a "Tracing Orientalist and colonial legacies in mountain travel across times, genres and geographies, this book illustrates the modes of writing and resisting that constitute 'Alpine Orientalism' since the 19th century. Müller examines Orientalist discourse through a wide range of mountain texts, such as exploration reports, newspaper articles, guidebooks, diaries, letters and contemporary works of fiction from Angie Abdou, Thomas Wharton, Elfriede Jelinek, and Felix Mitterer. Exploring how meaning about mountains is articulated, generated and contested within the global circuits of mountain tourism, this study enhances our understanding of the role of representation in changing the social real of alpine spaces"--  |c Provided by publisher.
