- Description
- This article explores feminist Orientalism and national identity in both Satrapi’s graphic novels, with the purpose of demonstrating the manners that these comics complicate and challenge binary divisions commonly related to the tensions amid the Occident and the Orient, such as East-West, Self-Other, civilized-barbarian and feminism-antifeminism.
