Francis I's ties with the Ottoman Empire marked the birth of court-sponsored Orientalism in France. Under Louis XIV, French society was transformed by cross-cultural contacts with the Ottomans, India, Persia, China, Siam and America. This book highlights France's use of the exotic and analyzes French discourse about Islam and the 'Orient'.
