Description

ORIENTALISM is one of the greatest and most influential of books of ideas to be published since the end of the European empires. For generations now it has defined our understanding of colonialism and empire and with each passing year its influence becomes if anything even greater.  Edward Said, the noted critic and a Palestinian, who taught at Columbia University, examines the ways in which the West observes the Arabs.
