Orientalism
Orientalism is Edward W. Said’s groundbreaking study on how the West has historically constructed and represented the cultures, peoples, and histories of the East. Drawing from literature, art, politics, and academic scholarship, Said argues that Western portrayals of the “Orient” were shaped by imperial interests and power relations, resulting in stereotypes that justified colonial domination. The book analyzes the foundations of modern Orientalist thought, its influence on Western perceptions of Asia and the Middle East, and its lasting impact on contemporary cultural and political discourse. Regarded as a foundational work in postcolonial studies, Orientalism continues to shape critical theory and global intellectual debates.
