To investigate how writers set about discerning and representing the truth about Islamic lands, Schleck (U. of Nebraska-Lincoln) examines the mediating role played by the rhetorical crafting, generic negotiations between author and readers, and publication histories of several early modern English accounts of Islamic cultures. She formally analyzes each text to reveal its place in the domestic book economy and in the social sphere of its author, to show how each of them functions as a social document and as part of an emerging genre.
