Krátky popis
The seminal work that has redefined our understanding of
colonialism and empire, with a preface by the author'Stimulating,
elegant and pugnacious' Observer'Magisterial' Terry EagletonIn this
highly-acclaimed work, Edward Said surveys the history and nature
of Western attitudes towards the East, considering orientalism as a
powerful European ideological creation - a way for writers,
philosophers and colonial administrators to deal with the
'otherness' of eastern culture, customs and beliefs. He traces this
view through the writings of Homer, Nerval and Flaubert, Disraeli
and Kipling, whose imaginative depictions have greatly contributed
to the West's romantic and exotic picture of the Orient. Drawing on
his own experiences as an Arab Palestinian living in the West, Said
examines how these ideas can be a reflection of European
imperialism and racism.'Beautifully patterned and passionately
argued'New Statesman'Very exciting ... his case is not merely
persuasive, but conclusive' John Leonard, New York Times
