Edward W. Said as an Arab Spokesperson

More about the book

Edward W. Said's work, particularly his influential book 'Orientalism,' positions him as a key advocate for Arab issues. Born in Palestine in 1935, Said's diverse background and education in the US shaped his perspectives. His academic career at Columbia University and other prestigious institutions allowed him to explore and critique Western representations of the East. The book delves into how stereotypical images of the Middle East and North Africa stem from Orientalist fantasies, urging readers to examine the deeper implications of the term "Orient."
