The theme is the way in which intellectual traditions are created and trans-mitted... Orientalism is the example Mr. Said uses, and by it he means something precise. The scholar who studies the Orient (and specifically the Muslim Orient), the imaginitive writer who takes it as his subject, and the institutions which have been concerned with teaching it, settling it, ruling it, all have a certain representation or idea of the Orient defined as being other than the Occident, mysterious, unchanging and ultimately inferior.
內容簡介

作者簡介
Said was an influential cultural critic and author, known best for his book Orientalism (1978), which catapulted him to international academic fame. The book presented his influential ideas on Orientalism, the Western study of Eastern cultures. Said contended that Orientalist scholarship was and continues to be inextricably tied to the imperialist societies that produced it, making much of the work inherently politicized, servile to power, and therefore suspect.
Grounding much of this thesis in his intimate knowledge of colonial literature such as the fiction of Conrad, and in the post-structuralist theory of Foucault, Derrida and others, Said's Orientalism and following works proved influential in literary theory and criticism, and continue to influence several other fields in the humanities. Orientalism affected Middle Eastern studies in particular, transforming the way practitioners of the discipline describe and examine the Middle East. Said came to discuss and vigorously debate the issue of Orientalism with scholars in the fields of history and area studies, many of whom disagreed with his thesis, including most famously Bernard Lewis.

編輯本段特點持偏見態度的人被認為是時常有意無意地抱著十八、十九世紀的歐洲帝國主義態度來理解東方世界,又或對東方文化及人文的舊式及帶有偏見的理解。東方主義的描述性錶達無一例外地將地中海以東各國傢社會的多種生活進行瞭對象化、本質化和刻闆印象的方式處理。對立化的錶現有:

“東方主義”(Orientalism)或譯為“東方學”,原是研究東方各國的曆史、文學、文化等學科的總稱。賽義德認為它是一種西方人藐視東方文化,並任意虛構“東方文化”的一種偏見性的思維方式或認識體係。“Orientalism” 本質性的含義是西方人文化上對東方人控製的一種方式。
