Résumé :
Tropicality is a centuries-old Western discourse that treats otherness and the exotic in binary - 'us' and 'them' - terms. It has long been implicated in empire and its anxieties over difference. However, little attention has been paid to its twentieth-century genealogy. This book explores this neglected history through the work of Pierre Gourou, one of the century's foremost purveyors of what anti-colonial writer Aim? C?saire dubbed tropicalit?.
