The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia, Vol. 12: A Work of Universal Reference in All Departments of Knowledge; With a New Atlas of the World (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book presents a comprehensive study of the concept of "othering" in literature and philosophy and traces its evolution from the ancient world to the present day. The author explores the various ways in which "others" have been defined and categorized throughout history, from the Greeks' division of humanity into Greeks and barbarians to the more complex and nuanced understandings of otherness that have emerged in the contemporary era. The book also examines the social, political, and economic factors that have shaped our attitudes towards others and argues that othering is a fundamental aspect of human cognition and experience. Ultimately, the author concludes that othering is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that can be both positive and negative, and that it is only through understanding the history and nature of othering that we can hope to overcome its negative effects.
