More than three decades after its first publication, Edward Said's groundbreaking critique of the West's historical, cultural, and political perceptions of the East has become a modern classic. In this wide-ranging, intellectually vigorous study, Said traces the origins of "orientalism" to the centuries-long period during which Europe dominated the Middle and Near East and, from its position of power, defined "the orient" simply as "other than" the occident. This entrenched view continues to dominate western ideas and, because it does not allow the East to represent itself, prevents true understanding. Essential, and still eye-opening, Orientalism remains one of the most important books written about our divided world.

‘A stimulating, elegant yet pugnacious essay’—Observer In this highly acclaimed seminal 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. In the Afterword, Said examines the effect of continuing Western imperialism.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2012 im Fachbereich Kulturwissenschaften - Sonstiges, Note: 1,7, FernUniversität Hagen (Institut für neuere deutsche und europäische Literatur ), Veranstaltung: Literatur und kulturelle Differenz, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: „Für Edward Said ist der Orientalismus ein durch Wissenschaft, den Reisebericht und die fiktive Literatur elaborierter Diskurs, durch den sich Europa seiner politischen, sozialen, militärischen, wissenschaftlichen und kulturellen Überlegenheit über den Orient versichert, der als das grundsätzlich Fremde stilisiert wird.“ Ausgehend von diesem Zitat wird diese These geprüft, und weiter auf die Rolle und die Relevanz der Literatur in Bezug auf die Herausbildung und heutige Bedeutung des Orientalismus eingegangen. Als Vertreter des Orientalismus wurde Edward W. Said mit seinem Werk „Orientalism“ gewählt, da er die Orientalismusforschung salonfähig gemacht hat, aber er auch der erste war, der sich mit der Relation von Literatur und einer Herausbildung eines negativen Orientbildes durch letztere eingehend beschäftigte. Edward Said hat mit seinem Werk „Orientalism“ eine große Debatte losgetreten, was eine vielfältige und breit gefächerte Forschungsliteratur bietet. Insbesondere auf die Beziehung von Orientalismus und Literatur wird in zahlreichen Publikationen eingegangen. Um das Entstehen des negativen Bildes des Orients in der Literatur, welches offensichtlich zur Entstehung des Orientalismus beigetragen hat zu verdeutlichen wurden zwei Beispiele aus der französischen Literatur gewählt. Erstens „Voyage en Orient“ von Alphonse de Lamartine und zweitens „Itinéraire de Paris à Jerusalem“ von François - René Chateaubriand. Auf eine Zusammenfassung der Werke soll hinsichtlich des geringen Umfangs dieser Arbeit verzichtet werden und nur auf das von Lamartine und Chateaubriand gezeichnete Orientbild, im Hinblick auf die vorher aufgeführten Thesen von Said, eingegangen werden. Diese beiden Autoren wurden als Beispiele einerseits gewählt, da Orientalismus und Kolonialisierung eng verknüpft sind und somit die meisten Beispiele in der französischen und englischen Literatur zu finden sind, da diese Länder zu den größten Kolonialmächten gehörten. Andererseits greift auch Said diese beide Werke auf, da sie deutlich die sich bildende Dichotomie im Bezug auf den Orient aufzeigt und beide Autoren ein negativ konnotiertes Bild des Orients zeichnen. Des Weiteren soll betrachtet werden, inwiefern Literatur und Medien eine Rolle im Orientalismus heute spielen und ob die modernen Medien die Literatur in Bezug auf die Bildung des Orientalismus heute abgelöst hat. Abschließend soll ein Fazit die Kernpunkte zusammenfassen und eine Beantwortung der Fragestellung beinhalten.

Essay aus dem Jahr 2014 im Fachbereich Kulturwissenschaften - Allgemeines und Begriffe, Note: 1,0, Hochschule für Technik, Wirtschaft und Gestaltung Konstanz (Wirtssprache Deutsch und Tourismusmanagement), Veranstaltung: Kommunikation und Konfliktmanagement, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Dieses Essay handelt von der Rolle der Intellektuellen in Bezug auf die Herausbildung des Orientalismus und seiner Bedeutung heute. Ausgehend von der Bedeutung der Intellektuellen im Rahmen von Orientalismus wird zuerst auf die Entstehung des Orientalismus eingegangen. Hierbei wird auf die Definitionen von Kolonialismus und Postkolonialismus und den von Said entwickelten Begriff des "Orientalismus" eingegangen. Said hat einen Lösungsansatz für die Orientalismusproblematik erstellt. Zusätzlich hat er auch einen direkten Bezug zur Literatur und der Aufgaben der Intellektuellen aus seiner eigenen Erfahrungen als Literaturwissenschaftler vom multikulturellen Hintergrund hergestellt. Seine Methodik stellt vor, wie Kultur aus seiner Sicht und aus Sicht der Intellektuellen definiert wird, und wie Leser und Intellektuelle mit der Literatur umgehen sollten. Des Weiteren muss betrachtet werden, inwiefern Literatur und Medien im Allgemeinen eine Rolle im Orientalismus heute spielen und ob die modernen Medien die Literatur in Bezug auf die Bildung des Orientalismus heute abgelöst hat. Abschließend wird ein Fazit über die vorangegangen Kernpunkte dieser Hausarbeit nochmals zusammenfassen.

The late Edward Said remains one of the most influential critics and public intellectuals of our time, with lasting contributions to many disciplines. Much of his reputation derives from the phenomenal multidisciplinary influence of his 1978 book Orientalism. Said's seminal polemic analyzes novels, travelogues, and academic texts to argue that a dominant discourse of West over East has warped virtually all past European and American representation of the Near East. But despite the book's wide acclaim, no systematic critical survey of the rhetoric in Said's representation of Orientalism and the resulting impact on intellectual culture has appeared until today. Drawing on the extensive discussion of Said's work in more than 600 bibliographic entries, Daniel Martin Varisco has written an ambitious intellectual history of the debates that Said's work has sparked in several disciplines, highlighting in particular its reception among Arab and European scholars. While pointing out Said's tendency to essentialize and privilege certain texts at the expense of those that do not comfortably it his theoretical framework, Varisco analyzes the extensive commentary the book has engendered in Oriental studies, literary and cultural studies, feminist scholarship, history, political science, and anthropology. He employs "critical satire" to parody the exaggerated and pedantic aspects of post-colonial discourse, including Said's profound underappreciation of the role of irony and reform in many of the texts he cites. The end result is a companion volume to Orientalism and the vast research it inspired. Rather than contribute to dueling essentialisms, Varisco provides a path to move beyond the binary of East versus West and the polemics of blame. Reading Orientalism is the most comprehensive survey of Said's writing and thinking to date. It will be of strong interest to scholars of Middle East studies, anthropology, history, cultural studies, post-colonial studies, and literary studies.

Defending The West written by Ibn Warraq and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2007 with Literary Criticism categories.
This is the first systematic critique of Edward Said's influential work, Orientalism, a book that for almost three decades has received wide acclaim, voluminous commentary, and translation into more than fifteen languages. Said's main thesis was that the Western image of the East was heavily biased by colonialist attitudes, racism, and more than two centuries of political exploitation. Although Said's critique was controversial, the impact of his ideas has been a pervasive rethinking of Western perceptions of Eastern cultures, plus a tendency to view all scholarship in Oriental Studies as tainted by considerations of power and prejudice. In this thorough reconsideration of Said's famous work, Ibn Warraq argues that Said's case against the West is seriously flawed. Warraq accuses Said of not only willfully misinterpreting the work of many scholars, but also of systematically misrepresenting Western civilization as a whole. With example after example, he shows that ever since the Greeks Western civilization has always had a strand in its very makeup that has accepted non-Westerners with open arms and has ever been open to foreign ideas. The author also criticizes Said for inadequate methodology, incoherent arguments, and a faulty historical understanding. He points out, not only Said's tendentious interpretations, but historical howlers that would make a sophomore blush. Warraq further looks at the destructive influence of Said's study on the history of Western painting, especially of the 19th century, and shows how, once again, the epigones of Said have succeeded in relegating thousands of first-class paintings to the lofts and storage rooms of major museums. An extended appendix reconsiders the value of 18th- and 19th-century Orientalist scholars and artists, whose work fell into disrepute as a result of Said's work.
