‎TONER JERRY‎

‎Homer's Turk: How Classics Shaped Ideas Of The East‎

‎Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2013. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. A seventeenth-century English traveler to the Eastern Mediterranean would have faced a problem in writing about this unfamiliar place: how to describe its inhabitants in a way his countrymen would understand In an age when a European education meant mastering the Classical literature of Greece and Rome he would naturally turn to touchstones like the Iliad to explain the exotic customs of Ottoman lands. His Turk would have been Homer's Turk. An account of epic sweep spanning the Crusades the Indian Raj and the postwar decline of the British Empire Homer's Turk illuminates how English writers of all eras have relied on the Classics to help them understand the world once called "the Orient." Ancient Greek and Roman authors Jerry Toner shows served as a conceptual frame of reference over long periods in which trade religious missions and imperial interests shaped English encounters with the East. Rivaling the Bible as a widespread flexible vehicle of Western thought the Classics provided a ready model for portrayal and understanding of the Oriental Other. Such image-making Toner argues persists today in some of the ways the West frames its relationship with the Islamic world and the rising powers of India and China. Discussing examples that range from Jacobean travelogues to Hollywood blockbusters Homer's Turk proves that there is no permanent version of either the ancient past or the East in English writing�the two have been continually reinvented alongside each other. Jerry Toner is a Fellow at Hughes Hall at the University of Cambridge. "Expertly traces how the Greek and Roman classics were used in constructing images of the East� This brisk and intelligent study shows the extent to which the classics created many of the presumptions and prejudices of the modern political world."�Stuart Kelly The Scotsman "Writing for a general readership Toner covers in an accessible style a great deal of material from the Byzantine age to the present day showing numerous ways in which allusions to classical authors have been used to express western and particularly English ideas of the East."�Tim Rood Bryn Mawr Classical Review "Toner's thesis is both convincing and important. Greek and Roman literature did crucially shape subsequent Western perceptions of the Orient and in doing so was only slightly less important than biblical references and Christian theological preoccupations."�Robert Irwin Literary Review "Homer's Turk gently chips away at modern scholarship about Western writing about the Orient� The merit of Toner's book lies in disabusing ideas generated by 'Orientalism.' Homer's Turk explores the world of early Western travel writing and observations about the Middle East and India. The question he tries to answer is how Europeans who lacked any frame of reference except ancient Greece and Rome tried to represent the East to their readers. This was a simple enterprise of making sense of a different world. A reading of the book makes clear that links between power and knowledge were more imagined than real. In this he is among a new generation of writers who have taken a skeptical look at the issue� A splendid effort."�Siddharth Singh Mint "This is an engaging timely study of an important and challenging subject."�C.E. Bene Choice "In this erudite work of survey synthesis and analysis Toner examines the ways in which English historians and travel writers used the classics as a scaffold for understanding and constructing images of the East through allusion and analogy. His scope is both broad and deep exploring English notions of Islam Arabs and Turks from the first forays into the Orient through the decline of British imperial might in the postwar period. The real strength of this work is the framework Toner establishes arguing the flexibility of the classics and their utility as a mechanism for British social cohesion and as a tool to separate Britain from the East� This is an excellent piece of scholarship."�Evan Anderson Library Journal "The work makes a useful addition to understanding Western ideology."�Publishers Weekly "An eminently readable well documented and informative book."�Dimitri Gutas Yale University "In this stimulating study Jerry Toner guides us through an extensive body of English political works historiography and travel literature dating from medieval times through to the present that draw upon classical Greek and Roman authors to create images of Islam and the East."�Richard Hingley Durham University "Toner is a passionate and illuminating guide on the fascinating subject of how the classics has for centuries molded our perceptions of the East and continues to do so today."�Madeline Miller author of The Song of Achilles Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2013 hardcover‎
