|a From the early sixteenth century onwards a literature grew up based on apparently realistic accounts of encounters with Asian, African and American peoples, and visual accounts of distant lands became a commercial enterprise in the early nineteenth century, especially in the work of David Roberts. Such representations, especially when produced for popular taste, often constructed stereotypical images of Africans and Asians as different from and inferior to Europeans, contributing to the ways in which missionary activity and colonialism were understood. Africa and Asia thus remained mysterious and exotic, and David Livingstone's fame was established as much by his exploration as by his missionary work. -- A century later, relationships, and representations, have been transformed: Asian and Africa conventions and images have helped to create a postcolonial ‘global’ language of representation, and such cultural fusions are prefigured in Elizabeth Keith’s assimilation of a Japanese style. |
