Orientalism has variously been considered a cultural phenomenon, revolution, movement, or outdated concept of an exotic "Other." In a volume derived from a multidisciplinary forum on the subject held in 2002 at St. John's College, Oxford--while the editors were researching cultural exchange in Etruria and Sardinia, Riva (Mediterranean archeology, U. College London) and Vella (classics and archeology, U. of Malta) introduce this issue and related debates. Ten papers attempt to clarify "Orientilizing" by treating topics including approaches to constructing historical periods, methodologies, and the diversity and power relations of hybrid cultures influenced by Oriental ideas and material culture. Illustrations include study site maps and artifacts. Distributed in North America by David Brown Book Co. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
