Orient definition

Orient the existing and persisting image of traditional Oriental harem ladies, on the one hand, and the reality of modern(izing) (Ottoman) Muslim women whom they met on the platform of the international woman’s movement, on the other hand. The Oriental harem had been, as ▇▇▇▇▇ points out, a topic which sold books. European women travelling or temporarily living in the Ottoman Empire, and the Middle East, who wrote on their visits to the women’s rooms of the Ottoman houses found a ready audience to share their experiences with. Starting with the letters of Lady ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in the early eighteenth century, harem literature reached its zenith in the 1890s, but continued to remain popular until the foundation of the Republic of Turkey.5 Even then the ghost of the leisured harem lady lingered on, if only to compare the new, modern Turkish women favourably with. The way Ottoman women and their lives in the setting of a harem were described by European female travellers, however, mirrored the preoccupations of the authors and their own changing gender relations rather than an objective reality and shifted accordingly over time.6 By the beginning of the twentieth century English publications started to reflect an interest in those Ottoman Muslim women who were increasingly becoming socially active in public.
