The French television series Angélique, five episodes appearing from 1963 to 1966, was a tremendous popular and commercial success. Based upon a clever mixture of exotic adventurism and soft eroticism, it recounted the escapades of a rebellious, emancipated woman of the eighteenth century. The courageous and intelligent heroine, Angelique, represented a liberated woman who prefigured the « sexual liberation » of the years to come, in particular, the right to control her own body. Less progressive, the fact that Angélique was abducted by Barbary pirates meant that, for many spectators, this television series transmitted stereotypical images of Orientals and a reductive or ambiguous vision of the Orient. Presented to the public immediately following the war in Algeria, Angélique is deeply marked by colonial ideology and imagery
