Description: Presents the first systematic study of cultural images of Andalusia as Spain's ""Orient"" and the impact they have had on nation-building and modernization. Jose Luis Venegas deftly explores Spain's shifting engagements with oriental identity and otherness by looking at a territory that is institutionally embedded in the nation-state while symbolically placed between inclusion and abjection.
