A cross-disciplinary reconsideration of Said’s Orientalism
Edited by Z. Elmarsafy, this collection returns to Edward Said’s Orientalism as a continuing subject of scholarly dispute. Its contributors approach the work from multiple disciplines, considering both the force of its influence and the debates that have accumulated around it. The volume situates Orientalism within contemporary questions of cultural politics and philosophy, making the book less an introduction to a single argument than a forum for examining its contested legacy. With its emphasis on divergent perspectives, it foregrounds how a landmark work of criticism continues to shape discussions of representation, power, and intellectual history.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Students and scholars of literary and cultural criticism
- Readers studying Edward Said and postcolonial thought
- Those interested in cultural politics and philosophy
