Travelers have framed their experiences and observations through imaginative geographies and Orientalizing discourses, fixing Mongolia as a peripheral, timeless, primitive, and parochial place. Readers can examine the travelers' literary and rhetorical strategies as they make themselves more credible and authoritative and as they identify themselves with Mongolians and Mongolian culture or, conversely, distance themselves. In this book, readers can also approach travel writing from the perspective of women travelers, Mongolian socialist intellectuals, twenty-first-century travelers, and a Han Chinese writer, Jiang Rong, who promotes cultural harmony yet anticipates the disappearance of Mongolian culture in China. 650 7 $a Asian history. $2 bicssc 650 7 $a Travel writing. $2 bicssc 650 7 $a Asian history. $2 thema 650 7 $a Social and cultural history. $2 thema 650 7 $a Travel writing. $2 thema 830 0 $a North-East Asian studies 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240217012102.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=59C7B608CD6211EE9507C16149ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
