'Madame Butterfly' and 'A Japanese Nightingale': Two Orientalist Texts
Winnifred Eaton
These novellas appeared at the height of fin-de-siecle American fascination with Japanese culture. Usually dismissed by critics because of their stereotypical treatment of Asian women, they have been paired here to show how they defined and redefined contemporary misconceptions of the """"Orient"""".
