Suitable for undergraduate and post-graduate students of Modern history, Imperial history, Inter-cultural Studies, Oriental Studies, Asian Studies, Anthropology, Comparative Literature, and Politics.  Charting the history of the vigorous debate about the nature of orientalism, this timely account revisits the arguments and surveys the case studies inspired by that debate.

At a crucial moment in the history of relations of East and West, Orient and Occident, Christianity and Islam, Orientalism provides a timely account of the subject and the debate.


In the 1960s and 1970s a powerful assault was launched on ''orientalism'', led by Edward Said. The debate ranged far beyond the traditional limits of ''dry-as-dust'' orientalism, involving questions concerning the nature of identity, the nature of imperialism, Islamophobia, myth, Arabism, racialism, intercultural relations and feminism.


Charting the history of the vigorous debate about the nature of orientalism, this timely account revisits the arguments and surveys the case studies inspired by that debate.
