Sukovataya, V. A., Fisun, E. G. East and Femininity in Writings of Russian and French
Orientalists: Inversion of Gaze
Abstract:
The authors of the article study semantics
and evolution of the “East” in the West European and
Russian orientalism paintings of the 19th century on
the materials of the works by J.A.D. Ingres, E. Delacroix,
V. Vereschagin. The target of the study is to analyze
evolution of the Eastern woman’s images in the
West-European and Russian orientalism in the context
of evolution of the dialogue between the East and the
West. It is proved that semantics of “East” is closely
connected with semantics of femininity. The novelty of
work is caused by several facts: 1) the study is about
not only aesthetical but also ideological differences
between French (West European) and Russian orientalism
(V. Vereschagin); 2) development of the Postmodernist
and Feminist concept of gaze (that was founded
by Laura Mulvey) based on the classical paintings of
the 19th century; 3) demonstration of the “inversion”
opportunities of gaze in the orientalist painting; 4) the
study analyzes specifics of the dialogue between the
East and the West in the West European and Russian
paintings of the 19th century.
Keywords:
cultural studies, femininity, orientalism, the Other, dialogue between the East and the West, race, sexuality, ‘spectator’s opinion’, inversion of gaze, gender analysis.
