T1 The Subversive Sub-Text of Spices in Salman Rushdie's The Moor's Last Sigh
A1 Wallhead, Celia M.
AB The pursuit of wealth and power has long been a bridge that unitesEast and West. In his 1995 novel, The Moor’s Last Sigh, Salman Rushdieemploys two factors or commodities, to deconstruct political and culturalhistory in East-West relations. On the political plane, he lays barethe East-West power axis based on the age-old spice trade, while on thecultural plane, he unveils the more recent bilateral interchange basedupon the arts and media. A Rushdie hallmark is the choice of a polyvalentconcept which gives much mileage, and here we see how Rushdiemixes a hot sauce out of spices and wealth, history and politics, raceand identity, art and love.
