Abstract:The Squire's Tale conveys a fragmented reality through its portrayal of the East, which is both strange and familiar. By imagining the Orient as a mysterious, though stereotypical, novelty and contrasting it with the novelties in pars secunda's romance, Chaucer denotes a reverence for wonder—affording the Other solemn dignity.

Abstract:Swiss-born geologist Louis Agassiz helped create modern glacial theory in the nineteenth century, but he did lasting harm in the name of science by promoting the idea of superior and inferior races. In this essay, I tell the story of a curious monument to Agassiz in Maine and weigh its political and cultural implications.

Abstract:Focusing on Dracula's metaphoric East-to-West apportionment and transportation of "land"—his conveyance of fifty large crates of imported earth to the former colonial centre—this essay examines Stoker's anatomization of nineteenth-century cross-Atlantic imperialism, highlighting his on-the-mark prefigurement and critique of the present global immigration crisis and the "terror" it inherits as well as enlists.
