I am glad such a book was written..

I remember reading this book years ago. I am not sure I quite agree with the juxtaposing Homer with Orientalists except in the sense that Homer was from Europe, and there has been the idea of Greece being connected to the Occidental...

A Must Have for Cultural Anthropologists.

Theory is usually incredibly dense and boring, but Said present his complex arguments in an interesting and relatively easy to understand format. I've checked this book out from the library so many times for so many papers I can't...

Relevant but not complete

It certainly is a worthwhile read and will help many delve into concepts they may not have previously considered. That being said, the lens through which the West view(s)(ed) the Orient is quite similar to how those of the Orient (who...

Good idea, bad book.

Said's book starts with the indisputable premise that the West's view of "the Orient" was distorted due to the West's own preconceptions and needs. This is one of the basic hazards of perception. But rather than a dispassionate...
