Cross Channel Oriental Studies in Victorian London by Bernhard Maier
VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Cross Channel Oriental Studies in Victorian London by Bernhard Maier Language: English Summary: Maier seeks to illuminate the often-overlooked networks and lives of lesser-known Orientalist scholars in Victorian London. By examining Gwynne’s letters and career, the book gives insight into “cross-channel” (i.e. British–continental / European) exchanges in Oriental scholarship The book thus contributes to the intellectual history of Oriental studies: not just the famous figures, but the broader social, religious and scholarly contexts in which “the Orient” was studied in 19th-century Britain.
